A prayer for the descendants of his enemies
The first of them had already been dealt with.
اللَّهُمَّ أَذَقْتَ أَوَّلَ قُرَيْشٍ نَكَالاً فَأَذِقْ آخِرَهُمْ نَوَالاً
Allāhumma adhaqta awwala qurayshin nakālan fa-adhiq ākhirahum nawālā
“O Allah, You made the first of Quraysh taste punishment, so let the last of them taste bounty.”
Where this comes from
Quraysh drove him out, starved his clan in a valley, and hunted him. The first generation met what it met. He did not ask for the same for the children. He asked for the opposite, and the two words in Arabic rhyme, punishment against gift.
The full narration
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "O Allah! You made the first of the Quraish taste punishment, so let the last of them taste blessings
