This year's theme
This year’s theme: Durood & Istighfar
The theme of the 2026 Ijtema. Both are short, and both can be said anywhere — walking to the marquee, waiting in the car park, or sitting with your family.
Theme resources and reading listDUROOD
اَللّٰهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلٰى مُحَمَّدٍ وَّعَلٰى اٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ
Allāhumma ṣalli ‘alā Muḥammadin wa ‘alā āli Muḥammad
O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad.
ISTIGHFAR
أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللهَ رَبِّيْ مِنْ كُلِّ ذَنْبٍ وَّأَتُوْبُ إِلَيْهِ
Astaghfirullāha Rabbī min kulli dhambin wa atūbu ilayh
I seek forgiveness from Allah, my Lord, for every sin, and I turn to Him.
