The Holy Quran 7:126 — Surah Al-A'raf

Arabic text

وَمَا تَنقِمُ مِنَّآ إِلَّآ أَنْ ءَامَنَّا بِـَٔايَـٰتِ رَبِّنَا لَمَّا جَآءَتْنَا ۚ رَبَّنَآ أَفْرِغْ عَلَيْنَا صَبْرًا وَتَوَفَّنَا مُسْلِمِينَ

Translation

"You are taking revenge against us merely because we believed in the Aayaat (miracles) of our Rabb when it came to us. O our Rabb! Grant us fortitude (patience and perseverance) and give us death as Muslims (as people who submit themselves to You)."

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

That is, we pray to that very Lord for acknowledging whose signs we have become criminals in your eyes, that He grant us the ability to show beautiful patience in the face of your excesses and cruelties and keep us steadfast in Islam until our last breath, lest, in alarm, we should do something contrary to submission and contentment [with the will of Allah].
