Ways of The Prophet (S.A.W)

AD’IYAH (SUPPLICATION)

The Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) has said: There is no supplication of a believer about which ALLAAH does not indicate whether he has accepted it in this world or whether he has kept it over for the next. At that stage, the believing servant of ALLAAH would wish how nice it would have been if none of his supplications had received an answer in this world. As such a believing servant of ALLAAH ought to keep on making supplications in all circumstances. [Hakim]

The Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) narrated: There are two things that are never refused by ALLAAH: one is a supplication made at the time of a call of Salaah (azan) and the other a du’a made at the time of Jihad. [Abu Dawud]

The Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) said: A du’a made between Azan (call to Salaah) and Iqamah is never refused. The Companions aksed, What should we pray for in this interval? The Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) replied:

“O ALLAAH, I ask Thy forgiveness and Thy comfort in this world and in the Hereafter.”

Hadrat Abu Hurairah (Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated that the Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) said: There are three supplications in particular that are undoubtedly answered:

1. The du’a made by parents for their children.
2. The du’a made by a traveller and a stranger, and.
3. The du’a made by one who has been wronged. [Tarmizi, Marif -ul- Hadis]

Hadrat Abdullah lbn-Abbas (Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated that the Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) said: Five supplications receive an answer:

1.  that of one who is wronged till help comes,
2.  that of a pilgrim till he returns home,
3.  that of one engaged in jihad till he stops,
4.  that of a sick person till he recovers, and
5.  that of some one for an absent brother. Then he added, “The one of the above which gets the quickest answer is that for an absent brother.”[Mishkat]
