iconSufa 124 - The Guardian (Al-Muhaymin)

1O you who believe! Let it be said: Al-Muhaymin;
2The Guardian, the Protector, the Custodian;
3And the ninety-second name of Allah, the One, the Absolute, the Almighty.
4It is the duty of the father to protect the House.
5It is the duty of the mother to protect her children.
6It is the duty of the adult children to protect their elderly parents.
7It is the duty of the neighbour to protect and aid his neighbour.
8It is the duty of the leader to protect the community.
9Thus, all are guardians.
10Behold! Through the Way of Islam no one is an orphan.
11If a child be without parents, then the family of the father must care.
12If the family of the father cannot care, then the family of the mother.
13If the family of the mother cannot care, then the neighbour.
14If the neighbor rejects their obligation or cannot care, then the community shall care.
15Thus, through the Way of Islam, no child shall live as an orphan.
