FIRST OPENING SUPPLICATION 1/3
ALLAHUMA-

YA ALLAH
BAA IDH- Comes form root of word for SOMETHING TO BE DISTANT, FAR, it’s the ANYTONYM of kareeb, Something is far and distant. This specific form of the word is the COMMAND FORM. It’s the sophisticed, exaggerated form of the word- it implies MUTUAL ACTION, means OH ALLAH PUT A HUUUGEE AMOUNT OF DISTANCE BETWEEN TWO DIFFERENT THINGS. Baaidh

The 2 different things are
BAYNEE WA BAYNEE KHATTAYAY
BAYNEE- is 2 words

BAYNA- is the first word meaning BETWEEN, comes from same word MUBEEN, bayinaat, bayina all come from same root word, MEANING TO CLARIFY SOMETHING

Also means TO PUT CLEARLY BETWEEN

EE- me
Oh Allah put a great distance clearly between ME and…
WA- AND
KHATA YAA YA-Plural word,

The singular of this word is KHATEE AH, normally this word is translated as SINS, but that is not an accurate translation

KHATEE AH refers to MISTAKES, errors, slipups which is LESS than sins,. Sins implies you knew what you were doing was wrong, KHATEE AH is slip up, you didn’t realize you made a mistake. KHATA YAH is plural

YA at the end means MY (to show possession)

MY MISTAKES,

MY ERRORS

MY SLIP UPS
O Allah put a huge amount of distance clearly between me and my mistakes, my slips up

Why is the word mistakes used and not sins? Because if We are asking Allah,

Khatayah is thing YOU DON’T EVEN REALIZE YOU DID SOMETHING WRONG
If we are asking Allah to remove from us, to distance from us from things we DIDN’T even realize we did wrong, OBVIOSLY we are also being distanced from our SINS as well!!

We are asking OH ALLAH REMOVE MY sins and slip ups
