purify our hearts from hidden shirk and nifaq, improve our manners, guard our tongues from falsehood and our gazes from betrayal, and forgive our sins, both those we are aware of and those we are not.

My Quran teacher, the man who dedicated his entire life to the Quran, Qari Bashir Ahmad Siddiq al-Madani, and who taught continuously in the Masjid al-Nabawī in Madinah for over fifty years, has returned to his Lord.
His janāzah will be in the Prophet's ﷺ masjid, and he will be buried in Baqī today, as he always wished.
The Prophet ﷺ said, "The best of you are those who learn the Quran and teach it to others."
May Allah make him of those best!
O Allah, in these blessed nights, the last ten nights of Your noble month, we ask You, O Most Merciful, O You whose forgiveness is vast, to envelop us in Your pardon, clothe us in Your protection, and admit us into Your mercy which encompasses all things.
