O Allah, record for me a reward for this (prostration), and remove from me a sin. Save it for me and accept it from me just as You had accepted it from Your slave Dawood (peace be upon him).

allaahumm-aktub lee bihaa ‛indaka ajr-an, wa ḍa‛ ‛annee bihaa wizr-an, waj‛alhaa lee ‛indaka dhukhr-an, wa taqabbalhaa minnee kamaa taqabbaltahaa min ‛abdika daawud

Othman Ibn Al-AAas narrated: I said, “O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), verily the devil comes between me and my prayer and recitation, making me confused.”

The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) replied, “That is a devil called Khanzab, so if you sense his presence then seek refuge in Allah from him,

(Say:)

"I seek refuge in Allah from Satan the outcast."
(recite this in Arabic)

...and spit (A form of spitting comprising mainly of air with little spittle) on your left side three times.”

a‛oodhu billaahi minash-shayṭaanir-rajeem

Seeking Allah's forgiveness or any supplication a person may make.


*The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, “The nearest the Lord is to His slave is in the last part of the night, so if you are able to be of those who remember Allah at that time, then be so.”

When you are about to eat, you should say:

“In the name of Allah.”



Notes:
*Brings blessing upon food or drink.
*Prevents the devil from partaking in food or drink

bismillaah

Whomever Allah feeds, should say:

“O Allah, bless it for us and feed us better than it.”

[this Dua is not to be said before drinking milk - see Dua 321]

allaahumma baarik lanaa feehi wa aṭ‛imnaa khayran minh

"All praise is for Allah who fed me this food and provided it for me without any might nor power from myself."

Note: Whoever says this supplication after finishing a meal, his/her preceding sins shall be forgiven as mentioned in the hadith.

alḥamdu lillaahil-ladhee aṭ‛amanee haadhaa aṭ‛aama wa razaqaneehi min ghayri ḥawlin minnee wa laa quwwah

“All praise is due to Allah, an abundant, good and blessed praise. He is The One who is sufficient, He feeds and is not fed. He is The One who is longed for, as well as that which is with Him, and He is The One who is needed, He is our Lord.”


Note: There are other views as regards to the understanding of this supplication, but the one mentioned here is the closest to the correct understanding, as per many of the recent and previous scholars.

alḥamdu lillaahi ḥamdan katheeran ṭayyiban mubaarakan feehi, ghayra makfiyyin wa laa muwadda‛in wa laa mustaghnanan ‛anhu rabbunaa

"O Allah, feed him who fed me, and provide drink to him who provided me with drink."


Note:
This Dua can be also said after having a meal at someone's house as a guest, or as an encouragement for someone to offer you food.

allaahumma aṭ‛im man aṭ‛amanee, wasqi man saqaanee

The messenger of Allah (may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:

''All Praise is for Allah''

"Allah will be pleased with His slave who praises Him (i.e., says Al-hamdu lillah) when he eats and praises Him when he drinks".

al-ḥamdu lillaah

O Allah you gave me food and drink, You had enriched (me) and sufficed (me), (You) had guided (me) and gave (me) life, therefore, I praise you for what you had given (me).

allaahumma aṭ‛amta wa asqayta, wa aghnayta wa aqnayta, wa hadayta wa ’aḥyayta, fa lakal ḥamdu ‛alaa maa a‛ṭayt

May the fasting (people) break their fast in your home, and may the dutiful and pious eat your food, and may the angels send prayers upon you.

afṭara ‛indakum-uṣ-ṣaa’imoon, wa akala ṭa‛aamakum-ul-abraar, wa ṣallat ‛alaykum-ul-malaa’ikah

O Allah, I seek refuge with You from hunger, for it is the worst bedfellow.

And I seek refuge in You from treachery, for it is the worst of associates.

Allaa-humma in-ni a‛oodhu bi-ka mi-nal-joo‛, fa-’in-nahu bi’sal-ḍajee‛, wa a‛oodhu bik-ka mi-nal-khi-yaanah, fa-in-naha bi’sa-til-biṭaanah

Whomever Allah gives milk to drink should say:

“O Allah, bless it for us and give us more of it.”

allaahumma baarik lanaa feehi wa zidnaa minh

Allah's Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, “If any one of you is invited (to a feast), he should accept (the invitation).

In case he is fasting he should supplicate (in order to bless the people in the house/host) and if he is not fasting he should eat."

Note: One can supplicate for their host in their own words.

I am fasting, I am fasting.
