Part 2 And say as it was reported on the authority of Abdullah bin Jaafar, may allah be pleased with him, who said: (When Abu Talib died, the Prophet, may allah bless him and grant him peace, went out to Taif on foot, calling them to Islam, but they did not respond to him. So he turned back and came to the shade of a tree, and prayed two rak’ahs, then said: O allah, to You I complain of my weakness, my lack of resources, and my insignificance among the people (their disdain and contempt for me). O Most Merciful of the merciful, You are the Lord of the weak and You are my Lord. To whom will You entrust me (leave me)? To a distant one who will treat me harshly (meet me harshly and with an ugly face)? Or to an enemy to whom You have given control over my affairs? If You are not angry with me, then I do not care, but Your well-being is more expansive for me. I seek refuge in the light of Your face by which the darkness is illuminated, and by which the affairs of this world and the next are set right, lest Your anger descend upon me or Your wrath befall me. To You is the reproach (seeking appeasement) until You are satisfied, and there is no power except with allah.) Narrated by Al-Tabarani in Al-Kabeer.
