Best Times to make Du'a (Supplication.)

[Al-Muminah]

by Asma

 

Salama alaykum,

 

There are certain times dua (supplication) is more likely to be accepted by Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) as mentioned by Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam). These times are as follows:

 

 

1. The Last Third Of The Night

 

Abu Hurairah (radiAllahu anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: 'In the last third of every night our Rabb (Cherisher and Sustainer) (Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala)) descends to the lowermost heaven and says; "Who is calling Me, so that I may answer him? Who is asking Me so that may I grant him? Who is seeking forgiveness from Me so that I may forgive him?."'

[sahih al-Bukhari, Hadith Qudsi]

 

Amr ibn Absah narrated that the Prophet said: 'The closest any worshipper can be to His Lord is during the last part of the night, so if you can be amongst those who remember Allah at that time, then do so.'

[at-Tirmidhi, an-Nasa'i, al-Hakim - Sahih]

 

 

2. Late at night

 

When people are sleeping and busy with worldly pleasures Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) gives the believers an opportunity, or an answer hour if they can fight sleep and invoke Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) for whatever they need.

 

The Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: 'There is at night an hour, no Muslim happens to be asking Allah any matter of this world or the Hereafter, except that he will be given it, and this (occurs) every night.'

[Muslim #757]

 

 

3. Between Adhan and Iqamah

 

Anas (radiAllahu anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: 'A supplication made between the Adhan and Iqama is not rejected.'

[Ahmad, abu Dawud #521, at-Tirmidhi #212, Sahih al-Jami #3408, an-Nasai and Ibn Hibban graded it sahih (sound)]

 

 

4. An Hour On Friday

 

Narrated Abu Hurairah (radiAllahu anhu): Allah’s Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) talked about Friday and said:

'There is an hour on Friday and if a Muslim gets it while offering Salat (prayer) and asks something from Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala), then Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) will definitely meet his demand.' And he (the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) pointed out the shortness of that particular time with his hands.

[sahih al-Bukhari]

 

 

Some have said that this hour is from the time the Imam (prayer’s leader) enters the mosque on Friday’s prayer until the prayer is over (ie between the two khutbahs), whereas others have said that it is the last hour of the day (ie after the Asr prayer until the Maghrib prayer).

(Note: when we say an hour here we do not mean the hour everyone knows (60 minutes) but an unspecified period of time because the time counters which we use today came after the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) had died.

 

 

5. While Drinking Zamzam Water

 

Jaber (radiAllahu anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: 'Zamzam water is for what it is drunk for.'

[Ahmad 3: 357 and Ibn Majah #3062]

 

 

This means that when you drink Zamzam water you may ask Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) for anything you like to gain or benefit from this water such as healing from illness.... etc.

 

Will add more later inshaAllaah.

[Al-Muminah]

6. While Prostrating

 

Abu Hurairah (radiAllahu anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wasalam), said:

'The nearest a slave can be to his Lord is when he is prostrating, so invoke (supplicate) Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) much in it.

[Muslim, abu Dawud, an-Nasa'i and others, Sahih al-Jami #1175]

 

 

When a Muslim is in his Salat (prayer) he is facing Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) and when he prostrates he is the nearest he can be to Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) so it is best to invoke Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) at this time.

It is said that while in prostration, one should not ask for worldy needs (ie a nice car, a new job, etc), but for the Hereafter.

 

 

7. When Waking Up at Night

 

Narrated Ubada Bin As-Samit that Allah’s Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: 'Whomever wakes up at night and says La ilaha illallahu wahdahu la shrika lahu lahulmulku, wa lahul hamdu, wa huwa ala kulli shai'in qadir. Alhamdu lillahi, wa subhanallahi wa la ilaha illallahu, wallah akbir, wa la hawla wala quwata illa billah

 

(none has the right to be worshipped but Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) He is the only one who has no partners. His is the kingdom and all the praises are for Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) All the glories are for Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) And none has the right to be worshipped but Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) and Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) is the most Great and there is neither might nor power except with Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) and then says,

 

Allahumma ighfir li (O Allah! Forgive me) or invokes Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala),

 

he will be responded to and if he makes ablution and performs Salat (prayer), his Salat (prayer) will be accepted. [sahih al-Bukhari]

 

 

8. At The End Of The Obligatory Salat:

 

Narrated Abu Omamah (radiAllahu anhu): that Allah’s Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) was asked, O Messenger of Allah, which supplication is heard (by Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala), he said the end of the night and at the end of the obligatory Salat (prayer)

[at-Tirmidhi]

 

This time is after saying 'At-tahyat' , and before making Tasleem (finishing prayer)

 

 

9. The Night Of 'Qadr' (Decree)

 

This night is the greatest night of the year. This is the night which the almighty Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) said about it, "The night of Al-Qadar (Decree) is better than a thousand months."

[surah al-Qadr, 97: 3]

 

The Night of Decree is one of the odd nights of the last ten nights of the blessed month of Ramadan. The angels descend down to the earth, and the earth is overwhelmed with peace and serenity until the break of dawn and when he doors of Paradise are opened, the worshipper is encouraged to turn to Allah to ask for his needs for this world and the Hereafter.

 

 

10. During The Rain

 

Narrated Sahel Ibn Sa'ad (radiAllahu anhu): that the Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: 'Two will not be rejected, Supplication when the Adhan (call of prayer) is being called, and at the time of the rain'.

[Al-Hakim 2: 114, and Abu Dawud #2540, ibn Majah]

 

'Seek the response to your du'as when the armies meet, and the prayer is called, and when rain falls'

[reported by Imam al-Shafi' in al-Umm, al-Sahihah #1469]

 

The time of the rain is a time of mercy from Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) so, one should take advantage of this time when Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) is having mercy on His slaves.

[Al-Muminah]

11. At the Adhan

 

'Seek the response to your du'as when the armies meet, and the prayer is called, and when rain falls'

[reported by Imam al-Shafi' in al-Umm, al-Sahihah #1469]

 

In another hadith; 'When the prayer is called, the doors of the skies are opened, and the du'a is answered'

[al-Tayalisi in his Musnad #2106, al-Sahihah #1413]

 

 

12. The One Who Is Suffering Injustice and Opression

 

The Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said to Mua'ad Ibn Jabal (radiAllahu anhu), 'Beware of the supplication of the unjustly treated, because there is no shelter or veil between it (the supplication of the one who is suffering injustice) and Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala)'

[sahih Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

 

 

The prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) declared,

'Three men whose dua is never rejected (by Allah) are: the fasting person until he breaks his fast (in another narration, when he breaks fast), the just ruler and the one who is oppressed.'

[Ahmad, at-Tirmidhi - Hasan]

 

 

In another hadith; The Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) declared:

'Three du'as are surely answered: The du'a of the oppressed, the du'a of the traveler, and the du'a of the father/mother (upon their child)'

 

The One who is suffering injustice is heard by Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) when he invokes Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) to retain his rights from the unjust one or oppressor. Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) has sworn to help the one who is suffering from injustice sooner or later as the Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said.

 

 

13. The Traveler

 

The Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said; Three supplications will not be rejected (by Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala)), the supplication of the parent for his child, the supplication of the one who is fasting, and the supplication of the traveler.

[al-Bayhaqi, at-Tirmidhi - Sahih]

 

During travel supplication is heard by Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) if the trip is for a good reason, but if the trip is for a bad intention or to perform illegal things (making sins) this will not apply to it.

 

 

14. The Parent's Supplication for their Child

 

The Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said; Three supplications will not be rejected (by Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala)), the supplication of the parent for his child, the supplication of the one who is fasting, and the supplication of the traveler.

[al-Bayhaqi, at-Tirmidhi - Sahih]

 

 

15. Dua after praising Allah and giving salat on the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) in the tashahhud at the end of salat.

 

Narrated Faddalah ibn Ubayd (radiAllahu anhu): that the Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said:

'When anyone of you makes du'a, let him start by glorifying his Lord and praising Him, then let him send blessings upon the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam), then let him pray for whatever he wants'

[abu Dawud #1481, at-Tirmidhi #3477]

 

In another hadith; Baqiy ibn Mukhallid (radiAllahu anhu) narrated that that the Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said:

'Every du'a is not responded to until one sends blessings upon the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam)'

[al-Bayhaqi]

 

 

In another hadith; Umar (radiAllahu anhu) narrated that the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said:

'Du'a is detained between the heavens and the earth and no part of it is taken up until you send blessings upon your Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam)'

[at-Tirmidhi #486]

 

After a person has finished his tashahhud and before saying the 'salam', supplication at this time is one likely to be responded to.

Ibn Mas'ud narrates: I was once praying, and the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam), Abu Bakr and Umar (were all present). When I sat down (in the final tashahhud), I praised Allah, then sent salams on the Prophet, then started praying for myself. At this, the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said:

'Ask, and you shall be given it! Ask, and you shall be given it!'

[at-Tirmidhi #593 - hasan, Mishkat al-Misbah #931]

Ducada

 

 

Walaal, sidaan wada ognahay, xidhiidhka ka dhexeeya dadka iyo Rabbigooda wa cibaadada, taasoo macnehhedu yahay in loo hoggnasamo kii na uumay oon jeclaanno, kana cabsanno. Cibaadadu hadaba waa xarigga nagu xira Rabbigeenna, xariggaasna waa Ducada, oo ah qoraalkan maanta waxuu ku saabsan yahay.

 

 

Ducada waxa ku so arooray Quraanka:

 

 

" Rabbigiinna wuxuu yidhi, i barya, waan idiin dhago nuglaanee ( aqbalayaa ducadiinna), kuwa iskala weyn iney i hoggaanasmaan, Jahannama ayey galaan ayagoo ku waaraya"

 

"Haddii ay adoonteydu i kaa wareysato ( Maxamadoow), Anugu waan dhowahay, waan ajiibaa ( u yeelaa wexey doonayaan) baryada kan ii barya, hadaba (addoonteyda) ha ii dhago nuglaato, hana i rumeeyaan, waa intaasooy waddada toosan qabsadaanee"
