DUAS

AFTER

SALAAT

And your Lord said;

“Call upon Me; I will respond to you”.

Holy Quran 40:60

2

When a believing servant stands for the salat, Allah (swt) turns to him until he finishes his prayer and mercy shadows over his head, the angels surround him from all sides up to the horizon of the heaven, and Allah (swt) assigns an angel to stand at his head, saying:

'0 the one who prays, if only you know who is looking at you, and to whom you are supplicating to, you will look to no-where, nor will you leave your position.'"

Prophet Muhammad (as)

DUA AFTER MORNING (FAJR) PRAYERS (translation)

In the Name of ALLAH, the kind, the merciful O Allah, send blessings on Muhammad and on his pure family . I begin in the name of ALLAH I ask ALLAH to shower His blessings upon Muhammad and his family. So Allah protected him (Prophet Muhammad) from the evil plan of others There is no GOD except for you .Glory be to you; indeed I was amongst those who did wrong to myself So we listened to his prayer (prophet Yunus) and delivered him from distress: and so we always save the believers (21:88) ALLAH alone is enough for us to rely upon and he is the best protector So they returned with Grace and blessings from Allah: no harm ever touched them:

This is what ALLAH has willed, there is no power except with ALLAH. It is the will of ALLAH which will happen and not the will of man. It is the will of ALLAH which will happen even if people DISLIKE it. Enough for me is (ALLAH) the sustainer, over those who themselves are being sustained Enough for me is (ALLAH) the Creator, over those who themselves are created. Enough for me is (ALLAH) the Provider of all needs, from those who themselves are being provided for. Enough for me is ALLAH the Lord of the Universe. Enough for me is he (ALLAH) who has always been enough for me even when I did not exist. Enough for me is he (ALLAH) to rely upon even before I was created ALLAH is enough for me to rely upon and there is no one worthy of worship except for Him. I put my trust upon Him alone. And he is the Lord of the mighty throne

In the Name of ALLAH, the kind, the merciful O Allah, send blessings on Muhammad and on his family “O Allah! Surely, I have no knowledge of the main source of my sustenance And I wonder through the thoughts that pass my anxious heart And I wander about in cities searching for it, And I am confused in regard to what I am searching for I do not know whether my sustenance will be found in valleys or in the mountains, on the ground, or in the air Or it will be found on land or in the sea And I do not know in whose hands it is, and from whom I will obtain it. But I know that you certainly have the Knowledge of it And the sources from which it will reach me are all in your power And it is you alone who distributes the sustenance through Your Grace and enable it to reach to me through Your Mercy. O’ALLAH, So send your blessings upon Muhammad and his family. And O’ Lord! Increase my livelihood which comes only from you; And help me to obtain my sustenance easily, and within close reach to me; And do not let me search for the sustenance where you have not destined it to be in For surely you are too generous to punish me And I am surely in need of your mercy So send your blessings upon Muhammad and his family And bestow Your kindness upon Your servant, surely You are the possessor of magnificent kindness.

TRANSLATION OF SALAAT (NAMAZ)

24

25

26

BASIC RULES OF JAMAT NAMAZ When making your intention to pray, recite that your are praying jamat Namaz behind the prayer Leader (imam) Stand close to each other, shoulder to shoulder in line with no space in between

You must follow the prayer leader by following him and do not do any

action before he does

Apart from the two Surahs which the Imam alone will recite, you

must recite all the other things in the Salat. You must pray the Dhikr

of Ruku, Sujud, Tashahhud, Salam, and all the Takbirs, INCLUDING

TASBIHATE ARBA in the 3rd & 4th Rakats

The meaning of reciting means that one should quietly whisper

enough to hear him/herself. Reciting the Zikr in your head (without

whispering) makes your salaat void

When in Sajda (prostration) make sure 7 parts of your body are

touching the ground at all times during the prostration

The forehead

The two palms of your hands flat on the ground

Your knees

Your two big toes

All must be touching the ground until Sajda is completed

While in Salaat, you should Stand with humility, looking down at the

place of Sajda, just as a servant stands in front of his master.

Refrain from laughing or nudging each other.

REMEMBER YOU ARE STANDING IN FRONT OF YOUR CREATOR

"If Your Salaat is accepted then all your other deeds /Aamal are accepted"

Prophet Muhammad (saw)
