Tips for Dua All Tips

Tip #19 - Raising One’s Hands

Raising ones hands with the palms facing upwards is an etiquette for dua mentioned in various ahadeeth.

Tip #33 - To start Du’a with ones self

A person should be concerned with himself first and foremost, as this is how it will be on the Day of Judgement. So when making dua, before asking Allah for others, ask for yourself first.

Tip #54 - Times when Dua is answered: Dua while Prostrating -

Making dua in Salaah is something good and recommended, even more so when one is in prostration to Allah as this is when a slave is closest to his Lord.

Tip #22 - To Cry

Crying is a way in which one can show and feel true sincerity in dua, in front of Allah. It is something which shows the helplessness and seriousness of the person within his dua.

Tip #31 - To repeat the du’a three times

Repeating the Dua 3 times brings about a sense of urgency, this was practised by the Prophet Muhammad [May the Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him] many times.

Tip #50 - Times when Dua is answered: Dua in the Last Third of the Night -

The night is mentioned in many cases in the Qur'an and Sunnah as being a blessed time, especially the last third of the night, where Allah descends to the lowest heavens and responds to duas.

Tip #65 - Times when Dua is answered: Before Zuhr -

The time before Zuhr is another time in which your dua is more likely to be accepted.

Tip #16 - That the Du’a doesn’t interfere with something more important

A Muslim must prioritise what needs to be done in life, for example Dua should not interfere with performing the obligatory prayers, as the obligatory actions are more important than the voluntary.

Dua on the day of Arafah

لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ ، وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ ، وهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ

The best of supplications is the supplication on the day of AAarafah and the best which I and the Prophets before me have said (is):

“None has the right to be worshipped except Allah, alone, without partner. To Him belongs sovereignty and all praise and He is over all things omnipotent.”
