Today’s Ayat for Wednesday, 2018-10-03 / 23 Muharram 1440

Our Lord! Make us not a prey for those who disbelieve, and forgive us, our Lord!
Lo! Thou, only Thou, are the Mighty, the Wise.  

  — al-Mumtahinah 60:5 as rendered by M. M. Pickthall

رَبَّنَا لَا تَجْعَلْنَا فِتْنَةً لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا رَبَّنَا إِنَّكَ أَنتَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ

IslamAwakened has been asked to add commentary to our Today’s Ayat
This is today’s comment:

We understand forgiveness, and how to ask for it, 
  and to a lesser extent, how to give it.
Less often do we understand the ways we are prey to others;
  ways that may be due to the sickness of another,
    or ways that are a dark response to our efforst to improve.
When we strive to get right in our lives, with our Creator’s help,
  there are those who will do everything they can to waste our time,
    and most won’t even know why they do it, what forces are pushing them.

This is an OPINION. 
We must always read the verse(s) for ourselves!
