‫ِبْس ِم الله الَّرْحَم ِن الَّرِح يم‬ Bismi-llāhi r-raḥmāni r-raḥīm In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful ‫الَّلُه َّم َص ِّل َع ىَل َس ِّيِدَنا ُم َحَّم ٍد َو َع ىَل آِلِه َو َص ْحِبِه َو َس َّلم‬ Allahumma solli 'ala Sayyidina Muhammad wa 'ala alihi wa sahbihi wasallam O Allah, send your peace and blessings upon our Master Muhammad and upon his family and companions Assalamu'alaikum wr. wb. Glory be to Allah s.w.t, Lord of the Worlds, who has continuously showered upon us His Mercy and Blessings, who has always touched our hearts and lives in the most gentlest of ways, and who has constantly protected us from all kinds of evil and set us on a path of goodness, and a path leading towards Him insyaaAllah. May the person who is reading this short write-up be in the state of well-being and absolute faith to Allah s.w.t and His beloved Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. It is reported in a hadith, narrated by Abu Darda', that Allah's Messenger (‫ )ﷺ‬said: \"‫\"َم ا ِم ْن َع ْبٍد ُم ْس ِلٍم َيْدُعو َألِخ يِه ِبَظ ْه ِر اْلَغ ْيِب ِإَّال َقاَل اْلَم َلُك َوَلَك ِبِم ْثٍل ‏‬ \"There is no believing servant who supplicates for his brother behind his back (in his absence) that the Angels do not say: The same be for you too.\" (Sahih Muslim, 2732) 2

This booklet contains a compilation of du'as and supplications that are often recited by our local asatizahs and imaams in the mosques. Some of these du'as have been found in several prophetic narrations, and the Holy Qur'an. These du'as are meant to be general du'as i.e., supplications made not just for one's self but for the larger Muslim community (as seen from the pronouns \"we\" and \"our\" in the translations below), just like how we have been enjoined to do. Of course, you may still recite them on your own and you do not have to perform a congregational prayer just so that you can recite them. Having said that, sending prayers and supplications to the community will invoke a sense of unity and belonging in the Ummah, as we collectively pray and turn ourselves to our Creator, Allah s.w.t. Here are some guidelines that you can follow when reciting a supplication: Start the du'a by praising Allah s.w.t and sending our salutations to our beloved Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) Invoke Allah by His names Ask for everything that you need (without holding back) Make du'a for others (such as asking for forgiveness) Conclude with ameeen 3

Additionally, it is also encouraged for us to try to understand the meaning behind each supplication and recite with the sincerest of hearts, full trust and faith in Allah who has promised us that He will answer them eventually as long as we make the conscious effort to turn to Him for assistance. Finally, this list is not exhaustive. Feel free to use this compilation as a reference, share it with your families and friends and add more du'as if you wish to. May Allah accept all of our good deeds and grant us peace and tranquility as we continue to seek forgiveness from Him for our wrongdoings and recite our sincerest supplications to Him, for He is the All-Knowing and All-Hearing. May He be pleased with us and guide us in each step, insyaaAllah. Compiled by: 4 |

2 Du'as after Prayers ‫َوِإذا َس َأَلَك ِع بادي َع ّني َفِإّني َقريٌب ۖ ُأجيُب‬ ‫َدعَوَة الّداِع ِإذا َدعاِن ۖ َفلَيسَتجيبوا لي َولُيؤِم نوا‬ ‫بي َلَع َّلُه م َيرُش دوَن‬ When My servants ask you about Me, [tell them that] I am indeed nearmost.

O Allah, I seek refuge with You from all evil, in this world and in the Hereafter, what I know and what I do not know. ‫الَّلُه َّم اْغ ِف ْرَلَنا ُذُنْو َبَنا َو ِلَواِلِدْيَنا َو اْرَحْم ُه ْم َكَم ا َرَّبَيانَا ِص َغ اًرا َو ِلَجِم ْيِع‬ ‫ اَأْلْحَياِء ِم ْنُه ْم َو‬, ‫اْلُم ْس ِلِم ْيَن َو اْلُم ْس ِلَم اِت َو اْلُم ْؤِم ِنْيَن َو اْلُم ْؤِم َناِت‬ ‫ ِبَرْحَم ِتَك َيا َأْرَحَم الَّراِح ِم ْيَن‬, ‫اَأْلْم َواِت‬ 8

O Allah! I ask guidance from Your knowledge and power from Your might, and I ask for Your great blessings. You are capable and I am not, You know and I do not, and You are all-knowing of the unseen (hidden). 16

O Allah! If You know that this matter is good for me in my religion, my livelihood and my affairs in the Hereafter, if it is better for my present and later, then ordain it for me and make it easy for me, and then bless it for me. And if You know that this matter is harmful (bad) for me in my religion, my livelihood and my affairs in the Hereafter, or if it bad for my present and later, then ward it off from me and keep me away from it, then ordain for me whatever is good for me wherever it may be found, and help me be content with it. __________ Du'a for confidence in speech (Prophet Musa's a.s. du'a): ‫َرِّب اْش َرْح ِلي َص ْدِري َوَيِّس ْر ِلي َأْم ِري َواْحُلْل ُعْق َدًة ِم ْن ِلَس اِني‬ ‫َيْف َقُه وا َقْو ِلي‬ Rabb-ishrah lii sodri, wa yassir li amri, wahlul 'uqdatam millisaani, yafqahuu qawlii My Lord, expand for me my breast [with assurance], and ease for me my task, and untie the knot from my tongue, so that they may understand my speech. __________ 17

O Allah, I seek refuge with You from knowledge that does not bring benefit, from a supplication that is not heard, from a heart that does not fear (You) and from a soul that never satisfies. ‫َالَّلُه َّم اْنَفْع ِني ِبَم ا َع َّلْم َتِني َوَع ِّلْم ِني َم ا َيْنَفُعِني َوِزْدِني ِع ْلًم ا‬ 18

Allahumman-fa'ni bima 'allamtani, wa 'allimni ma yanfa'uni, wa zidni ‘ilma O Allah! Grant me benefit in what you have taught me, and teach me useful knowledge and increase me in knowledge. for studying something difficult ‫ وأْنَت َتْجَع ُل الَحْزَن إَذا‬،‫الَّلُه َّم اَل َس ْه َل إَّال َم ا َجَع ْلَتُه َس ْه ًال‬ ‫ِش ْئَت َس ْه ًال‬ Allahumma laa sahla illa ma ja’altahu sahlan, wa anta taj- alul hazna iza syi’ta sahla. Oh Allah! Nothing is easy except what you have made easy. If you wish, you can make the difficult easy. 19

Allaahummadfa' 'annal balaa' wal wabaa' waz zalaazila wal mihan, maa zhoharo minhaa wa maa bathon, 'an baladina hazhaa khossoh, wa 'an jamii'il buldaani 'ammah. Allahummak tubis salaamah wal 'aafiyata lanaa wa lijamii'il buldaani 'ammah, yaa Rabbal 'aalamiin. Allahumman sur ikhwaananal mustadh'afiin fii kulli makaan yaa Arhamar raahimiin. Rabbanaa aa-tinaa fid dunyaa hasanah wa fil akhirati hasanah wa qinaa azaaban naar. Wa sollahu 'alaa sayyidinaa Muhammad wa 'alaa a-lihi wa sahbihi wa sallam wal hamdu lillahi Rabbil 'aalamiin O Allah, guide us with those whom You have guided, and grant us wellbeing with those whom You have granted wellbeing. Take us to Your care with those whom You have taken to Your care. Bless us in what You have given us. Protect us from the evil You have ordained. Surely, You hold the command and are not commanded, and none whom You have committed to Your care shall be humiliated. And none whom You have taken as an enemy shall taste glory. You are blessed, Our Lord and Exalted. All we praise is upon You for what You decide. We seek Your forgiveness and we repent unto You. 22

O Allah, we seek refuge in You from the distress of trial, from the lowest level of misery, from the perversity of fate, and from the malicious rejoicing of enemies. O Allah, we seek refuge in You from the withdrawal of Your blessing and the change of Your protection (from me) and from the sudden wrath of You, and from every displeasure of You. O Allah, lift from us the calamity, the pandemic, the disasters and the tribulations, of which is apparent and which is hidden, especially from our country and other countries. O Allah, grant us and the countries around us the safety of our well-being. O Allah, grant victory to the oppressed in all places. Our Lord, give us in this world [that which is] good and in the Hereafter [that which is] good and protect us from the punishment of the Fire. And Peace and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and all his Companions. __________ Follow us on IG: 23 @nusms_sop | @nusms
