1. Please declare (1) "I (Muhammad) seek refuge with the Lord (2) of mankind."
1. O My Beloved! Say it with your blessed tongue so that with the effect of the prayer, the favourable effect of your blessed tongue, too, can be brought together and through your permission the other believers can say it. Without the rifle, the bullet cannot fire. Without the purity of the tongue, the dua can have no favourable effect. For your dua to produce a favourable effect first purify yourself. Or, let the pure and pious pray for you, or, take permission from them.
2. Allah Almighty is the Lord of the entire creation, but since the human being is the superior creation, mention has been made of him specifically. It should be remembered that the Lord is He who is Self-existent and is Present everywhere, at all times, unselfishly. His protection is provided in the world of souls, in the world, in the grave and in the Hereafter. In short, everywhere. The Arabic word "Abb"(father) is that being who provides sustenance and protection for a short time, out of selfish motives. Thus, Allah Almighty is the Lord and not the father. Because a human being, in his childhood, obtains protection only. Therefore, this characteristic or attribute is mentioned first.
