We are not good guests

We are not good guests for Allah. If the guests of Allah are the likes of the Prophet and the rightly guided Imams, what can we say? The way that the Host provides for those guests, we cannot reach that. However, we are reliant on His grace and on his favours and care.

O Allah we are weak servants! We are servants who have nothing! We are nothing, whatever is, is You! If we commit wrongdoings it is because we are ignorant; so, forgive us! Enter us into this Holy month of Ramadhan in a way that we enter it with your satisfaction. Make us deserving to enter Your reception to which you have invited us all in the worthiest manner.
