Preface
Allah  says, ْ‫ﻜﻢ‬ ُ َ‫" اُدﻋُ ْﻧِﻰ ا َ ْﺳﺘَﺠِﺐ ﻟ‬Call upon me, I will respond to you"
(Surah Al-Mu'min: 60). Allah  has invited us to supplicate, but are we ready
to take the opportunity? Most of the time it so happens that we want to
beg Allah for our need but we do not know how to ask Him and therefore
remain deprived. In addition, we are not able to recall the supplications
at the times when they are more likely to be accepted. Most of us do not
remember Qur’anic and Masnoon (practiced by the Prophet ‫)ﷺ‬
supplications. It is beneficial to learn and remember those supplications
which Allah  has mentioned in the Holy Quran and taught to us through
the Messenger of Allah ᤖ. If it is difficult to memorize, we can always
keep a book which contains all these supplications handy.
"Call upon me, I will respond to you" can be a source of inspiration in
our lives to remember Allah  in every moment to strengthen the bond
of love & connection with Allah , in order to seek help and take refuge
in Him while fearing as well as trusting Him. The above verse motivates
us to learn more beautiful supplications for asking Allah’s help.
With regards to the supplications, the life of the Messenger ᤖ holds
a miraculous aspect, he ᤖ taught the mankind through his invocations,
the love of Allah with amazingly beautiful words, the fragrance of which
touches the hearts. Through his teaching of supplications, he ᤖ not only
strengthened the connection between Allah and His slaves but filled the
hearts with love, strength, and the light. As you go on reciting these
supplications your heart will be filled with the love of Allah .
The Messenger of Allah ᤖ said: ‫" اﻟﺪﻋَﺎء ُ ﻫُ َﻮ اﻟْﻌِﺒَﺎدَة‬Verily Du’a is
worship." When a slave supplicates, he is well assured that Allah  will
certainly answer his call. In addition, he humbles himself before Allah .
These two things are the real spirit of worship.
In addition to the supplications, some important Adhkar (‫أذﰷر‬:
remembering, praising, and thanking Allah) are also given in this booklet.
Scholars say that there are more than 100 benefits in Dhikr. Supplication is
also a form of Dhikr and therefore these benefits can be achieved through
Du’a also.
An important feature of this book is that the word-for-word
translation of the Arabic supplication and Adhkar (citations) is given right
below the Arabic words. We tried to keep the translation as a running

10
translation so that there is no need for a separate line for the running
translation and this keeps the book lighter in weight and easier to carry.
This book is classified into 4 parts to enable the reader to easily locate
the required supplication under the relevant part. These parts relate to:
(1) common supplications; (2) worship; (3) personal affairs; and (4) Social
issues.
We humbly request you to introduce this book to your family and
friends, and in schools, colleges, mosques, social gatherings, and to
promote it in every possible way so that everyone recites supplications
with understanding.
We ask Allah  to accept our humble efforts and respond to the
supplications of all those who learn, recite and teach this book. Aameen
Br. Abdul Quddoos Umri has worked hard in preparation of this book
and Br. Aamir Irshad Faizi, Br. Fuqan Falahi, Br. Kafeel Ahmad Faizi, Br.
Obaidullah Nadwi and others have extended their good support in its
preparation.
At the end, I would like to thank my parents, wife Tabinda Tahseen,
and children Sulaiman, Samah, and Usamah, who were supportive during
different stages of this and other books.
May Allah  grant them best reward for their efforts, help, and
support.
Abdulazeez Abdulraheem / Feb. 2019

Benefits of Asking & Remembering Allah
The benefits of Du’a and Dhikr (asking and remembering Allah) are
numerous; some of them are listed below:
x We are rewarded for practicing the Sunnah of asking Allah.
x We are rewarded for asking Allah!
x After the five obligatory prayers, these supplications provide an
opportunity to worship Allah  at different times throughout the day.
x They help us practice remembering Allah  at different times.
x They give an opportunity to present our emotions and feelings in
front of Allah  in every condition.
x They provide an opportunity to present each and every requirement
(need) to Allah  in the best possible manner.
x They teach us the manners of asking Allah for our needs.
x They reinforce our faith and trust (tawakkul) in Allah.
x They increase our love of Allah and strengthen our connection with
Him.
x They help us in protection from Shayateen (evil Jinns).
x They help us repent for our sins and seek Allah's forgiveness.
Moreover, Du’a and Dhikr impact the human body, heart and mind. For
example:
x They provide relief from mental stress, depression, agony and grief
(which are the weapons of Shaitan).
x They help us in hope, satisfaction and contentment.
x They help us in developing positive thinking and positive attitude.
x They provide stability, determination and self-control in our moods.
x They generate humbleness in attitude and behavior because a God-
fearing person cannot be rude or impolite to other people.
x They make us fearless. A person who believes in Allah  and relies
on Him alone, does not fear others.
x They keep us healthy. A person who is good at heart and mind
remains healthy and safe from many psychological diseases.
x They help us remain pure and clean in thinking and protect us from
evil and vulgar thoughts and other whispers of Shaitan.
x They help us lead a good life and stay away from bad habits.
x They liberate us from selfishness, jealousy, haughtiness, pride, ego
& enmity. We beg from Allah  for us and for other people also. For
example, many the Du’as start with ‫( َﺑﻨَﺎ‬Our Rabb).
x They help us receive blessings from Allah in our affairs. Any task
started with the name of Allah  becomes full of blessings.
There are many more benefits besides those listed above.

Benefits of word-for-word Translation

This book on supplications with word-for-word translation may be


the first of its kind. This approach has a number of benefits; some of
them are given below.
B You will see the meaning and translation of the Arabic word just
below it. You don’t have to search for the meaning of the word in a
running translation. Generally, those who pay attention when they
recite supplications want to know the meaning of their recitation but
are not able to find it easily from the running translation. As a result
of which they lose interest and the actual impact of the supplication.
C If you remember 10 to 15 supplications with word-for-word
translation, it will help you a lot in future. Same words are frequently
repeated in many supplications. (Please note that black and white
prints may not have these distinctions).
D Recitation with understanding will protect you from committing
mistakes in reading Arabic text, particularly of the Fathah (Zabar) and
Kasrah (Zair), etc.
E This is a simple and one of the best methods for a common Muslim
to learn and practice Arabic language. You can speak to Allah in your
daily prayers and in supplications while understanding them. You will
not find Arabic speaking friends everywhere but you can surely speak
to Allah anytime and at any place. We devote at least one hour
everyday in our prayers and Adhkar, so why not put life in our prayers
by understanding them.
F You will get acquainted with the construction of Arabic sentences and
with Arabic grammar too. You will also learn the usage of words for
yourself and others, for the past and present tenses, for singular and
plural forms, along with their examples.
G When you are able to understand words, you can use them in your
spoken Arabic. It will make your learning of Arabic very easy.
H The most important benefit of this word-for-word translation is that
it will make the understanding of the Quran easy.
If you study our course, Understand the Quran & Salah - the
easy way, it will become very easy for you to understand the
supplications given in this book inshaAllah.
We tried our best to make this book free from errors. However, we
are human and cannot claim perfection. Allah  alone is All-Perfect.

Method of Supplication
™ Ask Allah  only because He alone can respond to your call. He
says:
ُ
‫أ ِﺟﻴْﺐُ َدﻋْ َة َ اﻟﺪ ِع إِذَا دَﻋَﺎ ِن ﻓَﻠْﻴ َ ْﺴﺘ َ ِﺠﻴْﺒ ُ ْا‬ I respond to the invocation of the

َ‫ﻟ ِ ْﻰ َﻟْﻴ ُ ْﻣِﻨ ُ ْا ِ ْﻰ ﻟَﻌَﻠ ُﻬﻢْ َ ْ ُﺷ ُﺪ ْن‬


supplicant when he calls upon Me. So let
them respond to Me [by obedience] and
believe in Me that they may be [rightly]
guided. (Surah Al-Baqarah: 186)
™ Supplication (Du’a) should be in accordance to the Sunnah,
Allah  says:
ُ ‫َاذْ ُ ُ ْهُ َ َﻤﺎ َﻫ ٰﺪ‬
ٖ‫ﯨﻜ ْﻢ َاِن ُﻨﺘُ ْﻢ ِﻣﻦ ﻗَﺒ ِﻠﻪ‬ And remember Him, as He has guided

‫ﻟَ ِﻤ َﻦ اﻟﻀ ﻟِّﻴ َﻦ‬


you; for indeed, you were before that
among those astray (Surah Al-Baqarah: 198)

ُ َ ْ‫ﻜﻢْ ﻣﺎ ﻟَﻢ‬
‫ﻜ ْﻧ ُ ْا‬ ُ َ‫ﻓَﺎذْ ُ ُ ا اﷲ َ َ َﻤﺎ ﻋَﻠﻤ‬ Then remember Allah [in prayer], as He

َ‫ﺗَﻌْﻠَﻤُ ْن‬
has taught you that which you did not
[previously] know. (Surah Al-Baqarah: 239)
™ Supplication should be made with firm belief.
The Prophet Mohammed ᤖ said: When anyone among you
supplicates, he should not say: O Allah! Forgive me if You will;
have mercy on me if You will, grant me provision if You will…
but beg Allah with firm belief, because He can do any thing.
Nobody can force Him. (Bukhari: 7477, Muslim: 2679)

Virtues of praying for the Prophet ᤖ
 The Messenger of Allah ᤖ said: He who sends blessings on me
once, Allah will bless him ten times." (Muslim: 408)
 The Prophet ᤖ said: Do not make your houses graves, and do not
make my grave a place of festivity. But invoke blessings on me, for
your blessings reach me wherever you may be." (Abu Dawood: 20422)
 The Prophet ᤖ said, "The stingy person is the one before whom I
am mentioned, and he does not send Salah (Salawat/Durood) upon
me." (Tirmidhi: 3546,)
 The Prophet ᤖ said, "Allah () has angels who travel around on
earth conveying to me the Salams of my Ummah." (Nasa'i: 1282,
 The Prophet said, "If anyone of you greets me, Allah () returns my
soul to me and I respond to the greeting." (Abu Dawood: 2041)
 Al-Haafiz ibn Hajar stated in Fath al-Baari that the majority of scholars think
that any wording that fulfills the purpose of sending blessings upon him is
acceptable, but in the prayer one should keep to the wording that has been
narrated and not omit any part of it, so as to be sure of following the
Sunnah and what is narrated from the Prophetᤖ (11/166).
Nowadays various types of praying for the Prophet ᤖ  are used in the
Muslim Ummah. Any of among them can be recited provided it does not
contradict the Islamic faith.

Repentance & Asking Allah for Forgiveness


 The Messenger of Allah ᤖ
said: By Allah! I ask for forgiveness
from Allah and turn to Him in repentance more than seventy times
a day." (Bukhari: 6307)
 The Prophet ᤖ  said, O people, seek repentance from Allah. Verily,
I seek repentance from Him a hundred times a day (Muslim: 2702)
 The Prophet ᤖ  said, “The closest that the Rabb is to a worshipper
is during the last part of the night, so if you are able to be of those
who remember Allah in that hour, then do so.” (Tirmidhi: 3579)
 The Messenger of Allah ᤖ said: The nearest a servant comes to
his Rabb is when he is prostrating himself, so make Du’a (in this
state) (Muslim: 482)
 The Prophet ᤖ said: If anyone says (the following prayer) he will
be pardoned, even if he has fled from the battlefield."

Morning & Evening (Common) Du’as


 Narrated Anas ibn Malik:
the Prophet ᤖ said: That I sit in the company of the people who
remember Allah the Exalted from morning prayer till the sun rises
is dearer to me than that I emancipate four slaves from the
children of Isma`il, aznd that I sit with the people who remember
Allah from afternoon prayer till the sun sets is dearer to me than
that I emancipate four slaves. (Abu Dawood: 3667)
 It was raining and dark, and we were waiting for the Prophet ᤖ  to lead
us in prayer. Then the Prophet ᤖ  came out to lead us in prayer and he
said: 'Say.' I said 'What should I say?' He said, 'Say: ‫ ﻗُﻞْ ُﻫ َﻮ ا ُ ا َ َﺣ ٌﺪ‬and Al-
Mu'awwadhatain in the evening and in the morning, three times, and
that will suffice you against everything.'" (Nasa'i: 5428, Abu Dawood: 5082)
Sayyidul Istighfaar
 The Prophet ᤖ
 said, "If somebody recites (the following prayer)
during the day with firm faith in it, and dies on the same day before
the evening, he will be from the people of Paradise; and if somebody
recites it at night with firm faith in it, and dies before the morning, he
will be from the people of Paradise."

free a slave from among the descendants of Isma'il. He will have ten
good deeds recorded for him, ten evil deeds deducted from him, he
will be advanced ten degrees, and will be guarded from the Devil till
the evening. If he says them in the evening, he will have a similar
recompense till the morning.

Hazrat Ali (R) complained to the Messenger of Allah ᤖ  of not being able to
remember the Quran. The Messenger of Allah ᤖ  advised him to offer four
Rak’ah Salah at any time on Friday night, preferably in the last third part of the
night. He then said: Recite Fatihatul-Kitab and Surah Ya-Sin in the first Rak`ah,
and Fatihatul-Kitab and Ha-Mim Ad-Dukhan in the second Rak`ah, and Fatihatul-
Kitab and Alif Lam Mim Tanzil As-Sajdah in the third Rak`ah, and Fatihatul-Kitab
and Tabarak Al-Mufassal in the fourth Rak`ah. So when you have finished with
the Tashahhud, then praise Allah and mention Allah’s greatness in an excellent
manner, and send Salah (Salawat/Durood) upon me - and be excellent in it - and
upon the rest of the Prophets. And seek forgiveness for the believing men and
the believing women, and for your brothers who have preceded you in faith.

Qunoot Nazilah:

 "NAZILAH" means disaster, calamity, accident and suffering pain etc.


When Muslim Ummah suffers in calamities, trapped in any war or
encircled in the mob of disbelievers, it is advised to pray for salvation,
victory, and help of Muslims and for the defeat and destruction of
the disbelievers. In one such situation, the Prophet ᤖ  has made
Du’a for destruction of Rial, Zakwan & Mudhar communities & also
made Du’a for the rescue / deliverance of the Companions by name
who were trapped therein. The Prophet ᤖ  made Du’a in all the 5
salahs and continued this practice for a month in support of the
Sahaba and for destruction of disbelievers.

Du’as for Rain
The Istisqua Prayer (Asking Allah for rain)
 Whenever Prophet Muhammad ᤖ
 prayed to Allah  for rain, he
prayed with humility. The Messenger of Allah ᤖ  made
supplications for rain in three different ways:
B ISTESQUA PRAYER: He ordered people to assemble in open

space or desert. He performed two rak’ah salah, delivered a


sermon, and then prayed to Allah for rain. (Abu Dawood: 1173)
C IN FRIDAY SERMON: If someone complained about the scarcity
of rain, he prayed for rain from the pulpit (Mimbar) of Jumu’ah
itself. (Sunan Nasa'i: 1515)
D IN NORMAL TIMES: If someone complained about the scarcity
of rain, he prayed for the rain right there. (Ibn Majah: 1269, 1270)
Du’a for rain and protection from famine

 A’ishah, wife of the prophet (May peace be upon him), said: I never saw
Allah's Messenger ᤖ  laughing loudly enough to enable me to see
his uvula, but he used to smile only. And whenever he saw clouds or
winds, signs of deep concern would appear on his face. I said, "O
Allah's Messenger ᤖ  ! When people see clouds they usually feel
happy, hoping that it would rain, while I see that when you see clouds,
one could notice signs of dissatisfaction on your face." He said, "O
`Aisha! What is the guarantee for me that there will be no punishment
in it, since some people were punished with a wind? Verily, some
people saw (received) the punishment, but (while seeing the cloud)
they said, 'This cloud will give us rain.' " (Abu Dawood: 5098)

On seeing a good/bad dream or at waking up in the night:


 Narrated Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri: The Prophet ᤖ said, "If anyone of
you sees a dream that he likes, then it is from Allah, and he should
thank Allah for it and narrate it to others; but if he sees something
else, i.e., a dream that he dislikes, then it is from Shaitan, and he
should seek refuge in Allah from its evil, and he should not mention
it to anybody, for it will not harm him." (Bukhari: 6985)
 Jabir reported Allah's Messenger ᤖ as saying: If anyone sees a
dream which he does not like, he should spit on his left side three
times, and seek refuge with Allah from the Shaitan three times, and
let him turn over from the side on which he was sleeping. (Muslim: 2262)
 The Prophet ᤖ "Whoever gets up at night and says (the following
prayer) he will be responded to and if he performs ablution (and
prays), his prayer will be accepted."

 Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet ᤖ
 said, "If anyone of you wakes
up from sleep and performs the ablution, he should wash his nose by
putting water in it and then blowing it out thrice, because Shaitan has

stayed in the upper part of his nose all the night." (Bukhari 3295)

When the ride slips


 Abu al-Malih reported on the authority of a man: I was riding on a mount
behind the prophet (May peace be upon him). It stumbled. Thereupon I said:
May the devil perish! He said: Do not say, ‘may the devil perish!’ For you say
that, he will swell so much so that he will be like a house, and say, ‘By my
power.’ But say, ‫( ﺑﺴﻢ اﷲ‬In the name of Allah). For when you say that, he will
diminish so much so that he will be like a fly. (Abu Dawood: 4982)

Du’as upon committing the Sin


 the Messenger of Allah ᤖ
 said: When a servant (of Allah) commits a sin,
and (feels guilty and) then performs ablution well, and then gets up and prays
two rak'ah, and asks pardon of Allah, Allah pardons him. (Abu Dawood: 1521)
NOTE: Sincerity is the condition for the acceptance of repentance.
It means you have to:
B Stop committing the sin for which repentance is sought.

93
C Have regret for the sin.
D Have a strong commitment not to repeat the same in future.
E If the sin is related to a person, compensate him for the loss.

Du’a of the sick for self


 Narrated `Aisha: During the Prophet's fatal illness, he used to recite the
Mu'auwidhat (Surat An-Naas and Surat Al- Falaq) and then blow his
breath over his body. When his illness was aggravated, I used to recite
those two Surahs and blow my breath over him and make him rub his
body with his own hand for its blessings. (Ma`mar asked Az-Zuhri: How
did the Prophet ᤖ  use to blow? Az-Zuhri said: He used to blow on his
hands and then passed them over his face. (Bukhari 5735)
 the sick person in his sickness should recite Surah Al-Ikhlas (‫)ﻗُﻞْ ُﻫ َﻮ ا ُ أ َ َﺣ ٌﺪ‬,
ّ ِ ِ ُ‫)ﻗُﻞْ أ َ ُﻋ ذ‬, and Surah An-Naas (‫ﺎس‬

The virtues of visiting the sick


 It was narrated that ‘Ali said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ᤖ

say: ‘Whoever comes to his Muslim brother and visits him (when he
is sick), he is walking among the harvest of Paradise until he sits
down, and when he sits down he is covered with mercy. If it is
morning, seventy thousand angels will send blessing upon him until
evening, and if it is evening, seventy thousand angels will send
blessing upon him until morning.” (Ibn Majah: 1442)

Some people recite Kalimah Shahadah loudly when raising the coffin box or
putting it down or while walking with Janazah. However, it is not
recommended in the Sunnah. Men should keep calm or do recitation or ask
forgiveness or pray for the Prophet ᤖ
 slowly. Speak only when it is
necessary. Allah () knows best.

 became free
from burying the dead, he used to stay at him (i.e. his grave) and say:
Seek forgiveness for your brother, and beg steadfastness for him, for

Raqyah Shar'iyyah
Ruqya Shariya is an act of reciting in which a Muslim seeks cure from
Allah swt through Quranic verses, Allah’s names, and adhkar approved by
Prophet ᤖ
 . It can be used to cure physical and spiritual diseases like fear,
agony, distress, madness, evil eye, and evil effects of Jinns and magic etc.
Ruqya was also used for the treatment of Hasan (R) and Hussain (R)
and the companions of Prophet ᤖ  . Jibra’eel (AS) taught a few Du’as
to Prophet (Pubh) by the order of Allah using which the Prophet used to
do Ruqya upon himself too.
Conditions for Ruqya Shariya:
B Ruqya should be from the verses of the Quran or from the
recitations approved by the Prophet ᤖ  .
C Ruqya is to be done by reciting and pondering upon the meanings
of the Quranic verses and the invocations. Keep firm faith and
trust in Allah that He is As-Shafi, the Healer. These verses and
recitations are a means of treatment and they become effective
by the order of Allah only.
D Keep yourself away from all actions and practices that lead to Shirk
and do not do any thing that is not approved by the Prophet ᤖ
 .
E Offer Salah on time with full devotion and attention and ask Allah
for cure.
F Recite Surah Al-Baqarah in your house and in your workplace.
G Keep your house free from pictures and other evil things because
angels do not visit such places and shayateen dwell there.
H Reciting morning and evening Du’as regularly and keep trust that
only Allah will help you get rid of the problems.
I Do not get disappointed or lose hope if you are not cured
immediately. Show patience and keep full faith and trust in Allah.
Keep away from doubts, fear, and frustration. Always be prepared
and alert to fight the devil and evil desires.

Methods of Treatment:
B Blow upon the area after reciting Ruqya.
C Blow upon water and then drink it.
D Put your hand on the area where it hurts while reciting.
E Recite the Azaan repeatedly in the right ear of the patient
because shayateen run away upon hearing the Azaan.

144
Ruqya through Al-Qur’an
Start Ruqya with those Quranic Verses which are recommended and
approved by Sunnah. For example, the starting verses of Surah Al-Baqarah, Ayat-
al-Kursi, the last two verses of Surah Al-Baqarah, Surah Al-Kafiroon, Surah Al-
Ikhlas, Surah Al-Falaq, and Surah An-Naas.
The selceted verses as mentioned above are given below, along with their
meanings so that you recite them with understanding. Pondering on their
meanings while reciting these verses help you develop stronger faith in Allah, in
addition to bringing the blessings from Him upon yourself.

last two Verses of Surat-al-Baqarah at night, it is sufficient for him (for that
night)." (Bukhari: 5040) It is sufficient means that it will be sufficient for him for
protection from Shayateen or evil Jinns.

Surah Al-Ikhlas
Whenever the Prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬went to bed every night, he used to cup his
hands together and blow over it after reciting Surat Al-Ikhlas, Surat Al-Falaq and
Surat An-Nas, and then rub his hands over whatever parts of his body he was
able to rub, starting with his head, face and front of his body. He used to do that
three times (Bukhari, 5017).

Surah Al-Falaq
Surah Al-Falaq and Surah An-Naas called "Al-Mu'awwadhatan". It is
mentioned in the Hadith that reciting Surah Al-Ikhlas, Surah Al-Falaq and Surah
An-Naas in the morning and evening saves us from all kind of evils. (Abu Dawud: 5028)
Like this, It is Sunnah also to recite these three Surahs before sleep in the night.
Ayesha RA narrated that whenever Allah's Messenger ᤖ  became sick, he
would recite Mu'awwidhat (Surat Al-Falaq and Surat An- Nas) and then blow his
breath over his body. (Bukhari: 5016)

RUQYA THROUGH MASNOON ADHKAR
It is evident from Ahadith that Prophet ᤖ used some Azkar (recitations)
also along with Quranic verses in Ruqya treatment.
It is also evident from Ahadith that when we start an invocation with a great
name of Allah, such an invocation is not rejected. You get what you ask for.
