Nuh — Refuge from Asking in Ignorance

Distress & Relief Rabbi Prophet Nuh
رَبِّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ أَنْ أَسْأَلَكَ مَا لَيْسَ لِي بِهِ عِلْمٌ ۖ وَإِلَّا تَغْفِرْ لِي وَتَرْحَمْنِي أَكُن مِّنَ الْخَاسِرِينَ
Rabbi innī aʿūḏu bika an asʾalaka mā laysa lī bihī ʿilm, wa-illā taġfir lī wa-tarḥamnī akun mina l-ḫāsirīn
“My Lord, indeed I seek refuge in You from asking You that of which I have no knowledge. And unless You forgive me and have mercy upon me, I would be among the losers.”
Context: Nuh's plea after asking about his drowned son — a lesson in humility before divine knowledge.
