101 Dua Ideas

First post!

1. One of my favourite duas from the Qur'an

رَبَّنَا آتِنَا فِىْ الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَفِىْ الآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَّقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ
Rabbana atina fid-dunya hasanatan wa fil 'akhirati hasanatan waqina 'adhaban-nar
"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." (Al Baqarah:201)

Personal one

"Oh Allah forgive my minor and major sins, purify my heart, replenish my imaan and grant me Jannah tul firdaus."

4. "O my Lord! Open for me my chest (grant me self-confidence, contentment, and boldness)."And ease my task for me;
"And make loose the knot (the defect) from my tongue, (i.e. remove the incorrectness from my speech)
"That they understand my speech,”
Al-Qur'an, 20.025-28 (Ta Ha [Ta Ha])




I used this dua, by reciting it endlessly throughout the day for months when I was in school.
it changed my life.

To genuinely feel remorse in your heart and mind for the sins you've committed.
This is coupled with refraining from sins within your control due to the realization that Allah is watching you.

If we genuinely acknowledge our shortcomings to Allah and work to please Him, it is guaranteed that He will fulfill all of our lawful needs.

Remember me, and I'll remember you (Quran 2: part of verse 152)

Surah 27 verse 17
And indeed We gave knowledge to Dawud (David) and Sulaiman (Solomon), and they both said: "All the praises and thanks be to Allah, Who has preferred us above many of His believing slaves!"

After all, Alhamdullilah is the best dua

Sayyidul Istighfar - Chief of Dua for forgiveness

اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ رَبِّي لا إِلَهَ إِلا أَنْتَ خَلَقْتَنِي وَأَنَا عَبْدُكَ وَأَنَا عَلَى عَهْدِكَ وَوَعْدِكَمَا اسْتَطَعْتُ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا صَنَعْتُ أَبُوءُ لَكَ بِنِعْمَتِكَ عَلَيَّ وَأَبُوءُ لَكَ بِذَنْبِي فَاغْفِرْ لِي فَإِنَّهُ لا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلا أَنْتَ

(O Allah! You are my Lord! None has the right to be worshipped but You. You created me and I am Your slave, and I am faithful to my covenant and my promise as much as I can. I seek refuge with You from all the evil I have done. I acknowledge before You all the blessings You have bestowed upon me, and I confess to You all my sins. So I entreat You to forgive my sins, for nobody can forgive sins except You.)

Personal dua from a nasheed

يا رب هل مـــن توبـة تـمحو الخـــطايا والذنــوب
وتزيل هم الــقلب عنـي والكآبــة والــشحــوب

أدعوك في ليل بهيم والدمـــع مــدرارا سـكيب
أنت المؤمل والمعين وأنــت يا ربــي الـــمجيب

من لي إذا وضع التراب حولي فلا عيش يـطيب
والقبر داج مــظلم هــل يــنفع الـعبد النحيــب

يا وحشتي يا كــربتي يا غــربة العبد الغريــب
مامن سبيل للخلاص من مشرق أومن جنوب

O Allah May Give me a sincere repentance that would wipe my sins and bad deeds.

Ending the worries of my Heart and its dullness.

I ِask you in the darkness of night with my eyes pouring river of tears.
You are the hope and aid, O lord you are the answerer.

Who will benefit me when the sand is placed over me, living then will have no taste
While My grave will be dark, weeping will not revive whats done.

Feeling the the wilderness and agony, oh its the oddness of a stranger.
I cant see salvation either from the East or the South...
