Ways of The Prophet (S.A.W)
by Sheikh Muhammad Abdul Hai ArifiDua during illness
If any one recites the following dua forty times, while he is ill, then if he dies, he would earn a reward equal to that of a martyr, and if he recovers all his sins will be forgiven.
“There is no ALLAH save thee, Be Thou glorified Lo! I have been a wrong doer.” [xxi I 87]
If one is ill and dies reciting the following du’a, the fire of Hell will not touch him.
“There is no God but ALLAH, ALLAH is great. There is no God but ALLAH, the One without any partner; there is no God save ALLAH to Whom belongs sovereignty and praise, there is no God save ALLAH, there is no might and power save with ALLAH.” [Tirmizi, Nasai, lbn Majah]
During illness one should recite this du’a with a sincere heart and true yearning. [Ma’arif -ul- Hadis]
“O ALLAH Bestow on me martyrdoom in Thy path and give me death in the city of The Messenger.” [Husn -e- Haseen]
