Daily Du'a

Dear readers Salam aleikum,

as many know, doing extra du'a and prayers on Friday (Jummah) is something which brings great rewards and tranquillity to the soul, however as most of us are quite busy we forget that there are du'as for every day of the week that can be recited. Next to this there are also du'as for every hour, masha'Allah! Allah swt gave us so many opportunities to seek closeness to Him and yet we only seem to remember on Fridays.

 

In this spirit I started this blog update; 

to share a du'a related by the Fourth Holy Imam Zainul Abideen (a.s.), son the Third Holy Imam Husain (a.s.), son of the First Holy Imam Ali (a.s.) for Saturday.

 

Translation:

O Allah! Send blessing on Muhammad and on the children of Muhammad.

In the name of Allah the Beneficent, the Merciful.

"Bismillah" words that seekers of sanctuary repeatedly recite, word that the very cautious, in search of protection, often repeat. for the I seek refuge with Allah, the Exalted above all, from the oppression of the unjust, from the deceitful malice the envious (use) to lay snares and traps, from the injustice and outrage of the tyrants, and I sing His praise, do better and go beyond other praisers.

O Allah, Thou art One, has no partner; and is the Lord—Master, without being made; there is no discrepancy or nonsense in Thy commands, nor there is lawlessness in Thy Kingdom, I beseech Thee, to send blessings on Muhammad, Thy servant, Thy Messenger; to let me ask Thee for enlightenment and inspiration so as to be thankful for Thy bounties, which alone get Thy approval ultimately; to help me to obey Thee, and instinctively worship Thee; and make me deserve Thy rewards on account of Thy very kind patronage; and have mercy on me and prevent me from breaking in the bounds of (Thy) prohibitions, as far as I am kept alive, and show the way unto that which is useful and advantageous till I go on (survive); to let me take to heart the meanings of Thy Book, and, by its reading, throw down the heavy burden (of sins), and receive welfare and salvation, as a gift; let not my family and friends, who love me, leave me alone, let Thy favours reach me, in abundance, during the remainder of my life, exactly as they used to be made available for me, in full in the days gone by, O the Most Merciful.

O Allah! Send blessings on Muhammad and on the children of Muhammad.

 May all our prayers, du'a and fast be accepted, insha'Allah. May Allah swt help us in all our problems, be they health, financial, social, psychological or of any other nature. May all spreading the truth of the Holy Ahlulbayt (a.s.) be rewarded greatly in this world and the next. Insha'Allah may we all be guided towards the righteous path and may we be protected against shaytan.
