وَإِنِّي خِفۡتُ ٱلۡمَوَٰلِيَ مِن وَرَآءِي وَكَانَتِ ٱمۡرَأَتِي عَاقِرٗا فَهَبۡ لِي مِن لَّدُنكَ وَلِيّٗا ٥
Wa innī khiftul-mawāliya miw warāʾī wa kānatimraʾatī ʿāqiran fahab lī mil ladunka waliyyā.
And indeed, I fear the successors1 after me, and my wife has been barren, so give me from Yourself an heir
