COLLECTION OF DUAS FROM QURAN

ربنا تقبل منا إنك أنت السميع العليم

RABBANĀ TAQABBAL MINNĀ INNAKA ANTAS-SAMII-UL- ALIM. “Our Lora! Accept from us this (service); verily You alone are the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.” Al Baqarat 127

1. This du’a was read by Ibrahim and Ismail key when they completed the building of the Ka’bah.

2. The lesson is that a person must not be satisfied with actions only. Rather, after the action, be humble and beg Allah to accept it. This is taught from the action of Ibrahim because Atter completing such a lofty action he does not express pride, rather he asks Allah to accept the action.

RABBANA ATINA FIDDUNYA I_ASANATAW- WA FIL- AKHIRATI I_ASANATAW-WA QINA `ADHABAN-NAR. Al Baqarah 201

1. Rasulullah  used to recite this du`a very often.

Mariful Quraan P. 492 and Tafseer Mazhiri P. 403 from Anas

• This du`a is masnun especially during tawaaf.          
• Allama Bagawi narrates that Anas said: Once Rasulullah saw a person who became so thin and weak like a bird hatching out from an egg.  Nabi asked him:  Do you make du`a to Allah? He replied: O Rasulullah I used to make this du`a: “O Allah! What punishment you are to give me in the Akhirah, give it to me in this world”.

Rasulullah said in astonishment “Subhanallah you do not have the capability to withstand that punishment. Why don’t you make this du`a? (i.e. the above du`a)”. He made this du`a and was cured. Tafsir Mazhari – P 403 – from Muslim

• Abdullah bin Saaib relates that Rasulullah used to recitethe above du`a between Rukn Jamah and Rukn Aswad. Ibid – From Abu Dawud, Nasai, Ibn Hibban, Hakim
• Abu Hasan bin Dahhak (R.A.) narrates that Anas used to say that even if Rasulullah used to make du`a a hundred times he would begin with the above du`a and end off with it as well, and if he used to make two du`a then one of it used to be the above. Abi Shaiba
