    Allah encourages calling Him in supplication after remembering Him, because this will make it more likely that the supplication will be accepted. Allah also criticizes those who only supplicate to Him about the affairs of this life, while ignoring the affairs of the Hereafter.

    Sa`id bin Jubayr said that Ibn `Abbas said, “Some bedouins used to come to the standing area (`Arafat) and supplicate saying, `O Allah! Make it a rainy year, a fertile year and a year of good child bearing.’ They would not mention any of the affairs of the Hereafter.

    Thus, Allah revealed about them:

    “But of mankind there are some who say: “Our Lord! Give us (Your bounties) in this world!” and for such there will be no portion in the Hereafter.” meaning, they have no share in the Hereafter. This criticism serves to discourage other people from imitating those mentioned.

    The believers who came after them used to say:

    “Our Lord! Give us in this world that which is good and in the Hereafter that which is good, and save us from the torment of the Fire!”

    Next, Allah revealed:

    “For them there will be an allotted a share for what they have earned. And Allah is swift at reckoning.”

    Hence, Allah praised those who ask for the affairs of both this life and the Hereafter.

    The supplication mentioned and praised in the Ayah includes all good aspects of this life and seeks refuge from all types of evil. The good of this life concerns every material request of well-being, spacious dwelling, pleasing mates, sufficient provision, beneficial knowledge, good profession or deeds, comfortable means of transportation and good praise, all of which the scholars of Tafsir have mentioned regarding this subject. All of these are but a part of the good that is sought in this life. As for the good of the Hereafter, the best of this includes acquiring Paradise, which also means acquiring safety from the greatest horror at the gathering place. It also refers to being questioned lightly and the other favors in the Hereafter.

    As for acquiring safety from the Fire, it includes being directed to what leads to this good end in this world, such as avoiding the prohibitions, sins of all kinds and doubtful matters.

    Al-Qasim bin `Abdur-Rahman said, “Whoever is gifted with a grateful heart, a remembering tongue and a patient body, will have been endowed with a good deed in this life, a good deed in the Hereafter and saved from the torment of the Fire.”

    This is why the Sunnah encourages reciting this Du`a’ (i.e., in the Ayah about gaining a good deed in this life and the Hereafter). Al-Bukhari reported that Anas bin Malik narrated that the Prophet Sallal laahoo alaihi wassallam used to say this dua.

    Imam Ahmad reported that Anas said, “Allah’s Messenger (Peace be upon him) visited a Muslim man who had become as weak as a sick small bird. Allah’s Messenger (Peace be upon him) said to him, `Were you asking or supplicating to Allah about something’ He said, `Yes. I used to say: O Allah! Whatever punishment you saved for me in the Hereafter, give it to me in this life.’ Allah’s Messenger (Peace be upon him) said:

    “All praise is due to Allah! You cannot bear it -or stand it-. You should have said: Our Lord! Give us in this world that which is good and in the Hereafter that which is good, and save us from the torment of the Fire!

    The man began reciting this Du`a and he was cured.” Muslim also recorded it.

    This is Prophet Ibrahim Alaihissalaam’s supplication to Allah when He brought Isma`il Alaihissalaam to Makkah.

    Allah mentions here, while bringing forth more evidences against Arab polytheists, that the Sacred House in Makkah was established on the worship of Allah alone, without partners. He also states that Ibrahim Alaihissalaam, who establsihed the city, had disowned those who worship others besides Allah, and that he begged Allah to make Makkah peaceful and secure.

    (O my Lord! Make this city (Makkah) of peace and security,) and Allah accepted his supplication.

    Allah said in other Ayat,

    (Have they not seen that We have made (Makkah) a secure sanctuary.) 29:67 and,

    (Verily, the first House (of worship) appointed for mankind was that at Makkah, full of blessing, and a guidance for Al-‘Alamin. In it are manifest signs, the Maqam of Ibrahim; whosoever enters it, he attains security.) 3:96

    Ibrahim Alaihissalaam then said,

    (and keep me and my sons away from worshipping idols.) It is proper for whoever supplicates to Allah to also ask for the benefit of his parents and offspring, as well as himself.

    minaمِنَ from
    al-qawmiالْقَوْمِthe people
    adh-dhaalimeen ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَthe wrongdoers

    Allah tells us that when Musa Alaihissalaam killed that Coptic,he became afraid of the consequences of his action. He went out and about, and saw the man who sought his help the day before, fighting with another Coptic. When Musa Alaihissalaam passed by him, he called for his help again, against this other Coptic

    Musa Alaihissalaam said to him:

    (Verily, you are a plain misleader!) meaning, `you obviously lead people astray and are very evil.’

    Then Musa Alaihissalaam intended to attack that Coptic, but the Israelite — because of his own cowardice and weakness — thought that Musa Alaihissalaam wanted to hit him because of what he had said, so he said, in self-defence .

    (O Musa Alaihissalaam! Is it your intention to kill me as you killed a man yesterday) Nobody except him and Musa Alaihissalaam, peace be upon him, knew about it, but when the other Coptic heard this, he took the news to Fir`awn’s gate and told him about it. So Fir`awn came to know of it, and he became very angry and resolved to kill Musa Alaihissalaam, so he sent people after him to bring him to him.

    Allah says in the Holy Quran:-

    (20. And there came a man running, from the farthest end of the city. He said: “O Musa Alaihissalaam! Verily, the chiefs are taking counsel together about you, to kill you, so escape. Truly, I am one of the good advisers to you.”)

    When the man told Musa Alaihissalaam about how Fir`awn and his chiefs were conspiring against him, he left Egypt on his own. He was not used to being alone, because before that he had been living a life of luxury and ease, in a position of leadership.

    At that point,he made this dua.

    (My Lord! Save me from the people who are wrongdoers!) means, from Fir`awn and his chiefs. It was mentioned that Allah sent to him an angel riding a horse, who showed him the way. And Allah knows best.

    (And then he went towards (the land of) Madyan,) he took a smooth and easy route — and he rejoiced because of that.

    (he said: “It may be that my Lord guides me to the right way.”) meaning, the most straight route. And Allah did indeed do that, for He guided him to the straight path in this world and the Hereafter, and caused him to be guided and to guide others.

  • Dua for forgiveness

    dua350

    “My Lord! Forgive me. Indeed, You are the Bestower.”

    رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي ۖ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ الْوَهَّابُ

    Surah Saad, verse 35

    Allah tested Sulayman Alaihissalaam,then made Things easy for Him

    (34. And indeed, We tried Sulayman and We placed on his throne Jasad (a body), and he returned.)

    He turned back to Him and asked for forgiveness

    (35. He said: “My Lord! Forgive me, and bestow upon me a kingdom such as shall not belong to any other after me. Verily, You are the Bestower.”)

    (36. So, We subjected to him the wind; it blew gently by his order wherever he willed,)

    Al-Hasan Al-Basri, may Allah have mercy on him, said, “When Sulayman, peace be upon him, slaughtered the horses out of anger for the sake of Allah, Allah compensated him with something better and swifter, the wind whose morning was a month’s (journey), and its afternoon was a month’s (journey).”

    Al-Bukhari recorded that Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him, said that the Prophet (Peace be upon him) said:

    (An `Ifrit from among the Jinn came and bothered me last night- or he said something similar -Trying to stop me from praying. Allah enabled me to overpower him, and I wanted to tie him to one of the pillars in the Masjid so that you could see him this morning. Then I remembered what my brother Sulayman said, (My Lord! Forgive me and bestow upon me a kingdom such as shall not belong to any other after me)) he said, “so he let him go, humiliated.” ) This was also recorded by Muslim and An-Nasa’i.

     Allah commanded to seek refuge with Him from the Shayatin, because no trick could help you against them and you cannot protect yourself by being kind to them.

    Allah says in the Holy Quran:-

    (And say: “My Lord! I seek refuge with You from the whisperings of the Shayatin.”)

    The Messenger of Allah used to say,

    (I seek refuge with Allah, the All-Hearing, All-Seeing, from the accursed Shayatin, from his whisperings, evil suggestions and insinuations.)

    (“And I seek refuge with You, My Lord! lest they should come near me.”) means, in any issue of my life.

     So we are commanded to mention Allah at the beginning of any undertaking, in order to ward off the Shayatin at the time of eating, intercourse, slaughtering animals for food, etc.

    Abu Dawud recorded that the Messenger of Allah used to say:

    (O Allah, I seek refuge with You from old age, I seek refuge with You from being crushed or drowned, and I seek refuge with you from being assaulted by the Shayatin at the time of death.)

    As soon as Musa Alaihissalaam came from Madyan, he called Fir`awn to Allah and demonstrated tremendous miracles and clear proofs for the Truth that he brought.

    Fir`awn then sent emissaries to various cities of his kingdom and collected magicians who were scattered throughout Egypt. Fir`awn and his people chose from them, summoned them, and Fir`awn promised them great rewards. These magicians were very eager to prevail over Musa Alaihissalaam in front of Fir`awn, so that they might become closer to him. Musa Alaihissalaam neither knew any of them nor saw or met them before.

    “Musa Alaihissalaam met the leader of the magicians and said to him, `If I defeat you, will you believe in me and bear witness that what I brought is the truth’

    The magician said, `Tomorrow, I will produce a type of magic that cannot be defeated by another magic. By Allah! If you defeat me, I will believe in you and testify to your truth.’

    After witnessing the signs of Allah,they fell in prostration.

    Pharoah threatened them by saying:

    (123. Fir`awn said: “You have believed in him (Musa Alaihissalaam) before I gave you permission. Surely, this is a plot which you have plotted in the city to drive out its people, but you shall come to know.”) (124. “Surely, I will cut off your hands and your feet from opposite sides, then I will crucify you all.”)

    but they said, `We are now sure that we will go back to Allah. Certainly, Allah’s punishment is more severe than your punishment and His torment for what you are calling us to, this day, and the magic you forced us to practice, is greater than your torment. Therefore, we will observe patience in the face of your punishment today, so that we are saved from Allah’s torment.’

    Then they made this supplication

    (“Our Lord! pour out on us patience”), with your religion and being firm in it,

    (“and cause us to die as Muslims.”)

    Allah said, (mentioning what the believers said) while directing His servants to supplicate to Him, all the while promising them that He will answer their supplication:

    Our Lord! Push us not if we forget or fall into error,” meaning, “If we forgot an obligation or fell into a prohibition, or made an error while ignorant of its ruling.”

    Muslim collected, wherein Allah said, “I shall (accept your supplication).” There is also the Hadith by Ibn `Abbas that Allah said, “I did (accept your supplication).”

    Our Lord! Lay not on us a burden like that which You did lay on those before us (Jews and Christians)” means, “Even if we were able to perform them, do not require us to perform the difficult deeds as You required the previous nations before us, such as the burdens that were placed on them. You sent Your Prophet Muhammad Sallal laahoo alaihi wassallam , the Prophet of mercy, to abrogate these burdens through the Law that You revealed to him, the Hanifi (Islamic Monotheism), easy religion.”

    There is the Hadith recorded through various chains of narration that the Messenger of Allah (Peace be upon him) said,

    “Our Lord! Put not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bearof obligations, hardships and afflictions, do not make us bear what we cannot bear of this.

    “Pardon us and grant us forgiveness. Have mercy on us. You are our Mawla (Supporter and Protector) and give us victory over the disbelieving people.”

    Allah said, `I shall.”’

    Pardon us” meaning, between us and You regarding what You know of our shortcomings and errors.

    “And grant us forgiveness” concerning what is between us and Your servants. So do not expose our errors and evil deeds to them.

    Have mercy on us” in what will come thereafter. Therefore, do not allow us to fall into another error.

    They say that those who commit error need three things: Allah’s forgiveness for what is between Him and them, that He conceals these errors from His other servants, and thus does not expose them before the servants, and that He grants them immunity from further error.” We mentioned before that Allah answered these pleas, “I shall,” in one narration and, “I did,” in another narration.

    You are our Mawla” meaning, You are our supporter and helper, our trust is in You, You are sought for each and every type of help and our total reliance is on You. There is no power or strength except from You.

    And give us victory over the disbelieving people” those who rejected Your religion, denied Your Oneness, refused the Message of Your Prophet , worshiped other than You and associated others in Your worship. Give us victory and make us prevail above them in this and the Hereafter. Allah said, “I shall,” in one narration, and, “I did,” in the Hadith that Muslim collected from Ibn `Abbas.

    Further, Ibn Jarir recorded that Abu Ishaq said that whenever Mu`adh would finish reciting this Surah (Al-Baqarah),

    (And give us victory over the disbelieving people), he would say “Amin.”

    The Hadiths on the virtue of these last two ayats of surah Al-Baqarah:

     

    Al-Bukhari recorded that Abu Mas`ud said that the Messenger of Allah (Peace be upon him) said,

    “Whoever recites the last two Ayat in Surat Al-Baqarah at night, they will suffice for him.”

    The rest of the six also recorded similar wording for this Hadith. The Two Sahihs recorded this Hadith using various chains of narration, and Imam Ahmad also recorded it.

    Muslim recorded that `Abdullah said, “When the Messenger of Allah went on the Isra journey, he ascended to the Sidrat Al-Muntaha in the sixth heaven, where whatever ascends from the earth ends at, and whatever descends from above it ends at.

    The Messenger of Allah was then given three things: the five prayers, the last Ayat in Surat Al-Baqarah and forgiveness for whoever did not associate anything or anyone with Allah from his Ummah.”

    Ibn `Abbas stated ‘’While the Messenger of Allah was with Jibil Alaihissalaam, he heard a noise from above. Jibil Alaihissalaam lifted his sight to the sky and said, `This is a door that was opened just now in heaven, and it was never opened before.’ An angel came down through the door to the Prophet (Peace be upon him) and said, `Receive the good news of two lights that you have been given and which no Prophet before you was given: the Opener of the Book (Al-Fatihah) and the last Ayat in Surat Al-Baqarah. You will not read a letter of them, but you will be granted its benefit.”

    This Hadith was collected by Muslim and An-Nasa’i, and this is the wording collected by An-Nasa’i.

  • Dua to seek Forgiveness and affection for the believers

    Allah says in the Holy Quran:-

    (And there is also a share in this booty) for the poor emigrants, who were expelled from their homes and their property, seeking bounties from Allah and (His) good pleasure, and helping Allah and His Messenger. Such are indeed the truthful.) (9. And (it is also for) those who, before them, had homes and had adopted the faith, love those who emigrate to them, and have no jealousy in their breasts for that which they have been given, and give them preference over themselves even though they were in need of that. And whosoever is saved from his own greed, such are they who will be the successful.) (10. And those who came after them say: “Our Lord! Forgive us and our brethren who have preceded us in faith, and put not in our hearts any hatred against those who have believed. Our Lord! You are indeed full of kindness, Most Merciful.)

     

    Here Allah describes three types of believers.These three types are the Muhajirin, the Ansar and those who followed their righteous lead with excellence.

     

    This is the supplication of the third type of believers.The third type are those who followed the Muhajirin and Ansar in their good works, beautiful attributes and who invoke Allah for them in public and secret. This is why Allah, the Exalted said in this honorable Ayah,

     

    (And those who came after them say), meaning, the statement that they utter is,

     

    (Our Lord! Forgive us and our brethren who have preceded us in faith, and put not in our hearts any hatred), meaning, rage or envy,

     

    Indeed, it is a beautiful way that Imam Malik used this honorable Ayah to declare that the Rafidah who curse the Companions do not have a share in the Fai’ money, because they do not have the good quality of those whom Allah has described here.

     

    Ibn Abi Hatim recorded that `A’ishah Radi Allahu anha said, “They were commanded to invoke Allah to forgive them, but instead, they cursed them!” She then recited the above ayah.

    Imam Ahmad recorded that Ibn `Abbas said: The Prophet (Peace be upon him) was in Makkah, then he was commanded to emigrate, and Allah revealed these words: At-Tirmidhi said, “This is Hasan Sahih.”

    Al-Hasan Al-Basri commented on this Ayah, “When the disbelievers of Makkah conspired to kill the Messenger of Allah , or expel him or imprison him, Allah wanted him to fight the people of Makkah, and commanded him to go to Al-Madinah.

    What Allah said was:

    (And say: “My Lord! Let my entry be good…”) means, my entry to Al-Madinah.

    (and (likewise) my exit be good, ) means, my exit from Makkah. This was also the view of `Abdur-Rahman bin Zayd bin Aslam.

    (And grant me from You a helping authority.) Al-Hasan Al-Basri explained this Ayah; “His Lord promised to take away the kingdom and glory of Persia and give it to him, and the kingdom and glory of Byzantium and give it to him.”

    Qatadah said, “The Prophet of Allah knew that that he could not achieve this without authority or power, so he asked for authority to help him support the Book of Allah, the Laws of Allah, the obligations of Allah and to establish the religion of Allah.

    Authority is a mercy from Allah which He places among His servants, otherwise some of them would attack others, and the strong would consume the weak.” Alongside the truth, he also needed power and authority in order to suppress those who opposed and resisted him, hence Allah said:

    (Indeed We have sent Our Messengers with clear proofs,)

  • Dua to thank Allah after the removal of any hardships, grief or illness

    dua13q

    “Praise be to Allah, Who has removed from us (all) sorrow; Indeed, our Lord is surely Oft-Forgiving,Most Appreciative”

    الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَذْهَبَ عَنَّا الْحَزَنَ ۖ إِنَّ رَبَّنَا لَغَفُورٌ شَكُورٌ

    Listen to the recitation of this dua.

    Allah says in the Holy Quran:-

    (33. `Adn (Gardens) will they enter, therein will they be adorned with bracelets of gold and pearls, and their garments therein will be of silk.) (34. And they will say: “All praise and thanks be to Allah, Who has removed from us (all) grief. Verily, our Lord is indeed Oft-Forgiving, Most Ready to appreciate.”) (35. “Who, out of His grace, has lodged us in a home that will last forever, where toil will touch us not nor weariness will touch us.”)

    Allah tells us that those whom He chose among His servants, those who inherited the Book which was revealed from the Lord of the worlds, will, on the Day of Resurrection, have an abode in Everlasting Gardens which they will enter on the Day when they are raised anew and meet Allah.

    (And they will say this which means fear of everything that is feared; it has been lifted from us and we have been relieved of all that we used to fear of the anxieties of the world and the Hereafter.

    Ibn `Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, and others said, “He forgives them for their major sins, and appreciates even the smallest of their good deeds.”

    (Who, out of His grace, has lodged us in a home that will last forever,) means, `Who has given us this position and status out of His grace and blessing and mercy, for our good deeds are not equivalent to this.’

    It was reported in the Sahih that the Messenger of Allah said: –

    (None of you will enter Paradise by virtue of his good deeds.) They said, “Not even you, O Messenger of Allah” He said,

    (Not even me, unless Allah encompasses me with His mercy and grace.)

    (where toil will touch us not nor weariness will touch us.) means, neither hardship nor exhaustion will touch us. The words translated here as “toil” and “weariness” both mean exhaustion, as if what is meant by the negation of both is that neither their bodies nor their souls will become exhausted; and Allah knows best. They used to exhaust themselves in worshiping this world, but their obligations will come to an end when they enter Paradise, where they will enjoy eternal rest and repose.
