Prayer for Peace and Harmony
"In the name of God the Merciful, the Merciful!
We pray, O God, that you have made this day a day of joy for us to be Muslim and Christian together, for all creatures on this planet, with the birth of the brilliant light of Alijjyl Myrtezaj, in the magnificent Kaaba, your true lion, protector of your path, destroyer of the infidels, your representative on the whole face of the earth, endowed with Divine qualities and knowledge.
For the sake of him and His work and His heirs, O Lord, forgive me the mistakes and faults without intention. Save all mankind from fear and terror.-
May God give birth to good men and leaders who will govern with justice among the peoples and make us undivided loyalists from the light of Ali Myrtezaj, from that light that you yourself, O God, with your majesty have graced and sanctified.
O You from Heaven, praise has come down.
"La Fetta il - la Ali, we humbly pray and beseech you not to separate us from your light and make all the deserving humanity from the east to the west to be placed under your banner, which is peace, freedom, union and brotherhood for all.-
May your mercy be upon those who knowingly betray and violate your laws and traditions.
May your mercy be upon those who, for their selfishness, terrorize and drown humanity in Blood.
O Light of Holiness endowed by God himself in this universe: Helpers, standard-bearers and deputy of the Prophet Muhammad: the light of the twelve Imams and all the saints in the World; we humbly pray.
For the protection of humanity, the rain from the sky, the tremors from the earth, the health from the wind, may God bless them!
God's purified Adam, God's saved Noah, God's relative Abraham, God's speaker Moses, God's Spirit Jesus, Prophet Muhammad, and all the Prophets and God's messengers, their blessings and divine blessings, may they be eternally upon us in this life and the next. May we also be among those who have benefited from your admiration, your love, your assurance, your teachings, as you yourself said O Lord: I have exalted man, I have taught him all, I have provided him with all and for him I have Created.
God bless us all!
Amin!”
Also, the Great Grandfather touched on Religious Harmony in our country and the role of Bektashism in this harmony.
At the end, His Holiness, Haxhi Dede Edmond Brahimaj, recited for those present, some verses from the Nafes for Karbala.
