O Allah, never let the world forget the suffering of our brothers and sisters in Palestine. Shower them with Your mercy, steady their hearts with patience, and replace their every tear with the light of peace. O Most Merciful, be their protector, their healer, their unbreakable hope. Ameen, ya Rabb al-ʿālamīn.
