Ways of The Prophet (S.A.W)
by Sheikh Muhammad Abdul Hai ArifiA COMPREHENSIVE DU’A (SUPPLICATION)
Hadrat Abu Umama (Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated: The Prophet has taught us many supplications which we could not retain in our memory. So we said to him, ‘O messenger of ALLAAH, you have told us a number of prayers which we have not been able to remember, (i.e. we wish to make a supplication embracing all these suplications). What should we do? He replied, I tell you now a Salaah that will cover all of them. Say:
‘O ALLAAH, I ask Thee all good that Thy Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) has asked Thee, and seek Thy refuge from all evils from which Thy Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) has sought Thy refuge. Thou art the One whose help is to be implored and achievement of anything rests on Thy will. There is no power or strength except ALLAAH. [Tirmizi, Ma’rif -ul- Hadis]
