Duas for sitting together, starting meetings, and leaving gatherings
O Allah, guide us to the straight path.
O Allah, I ask You for beneficial knowledge, goodly provision, and acceptable deeds.
O Allah, I ask You for beneficial knowledge, pure provisions, and accepted deeds.
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. O Allah, we ask You for the success of the guided, the deeds of the God-conscious, the sincere advice of the repentant, the resolve of the patient, the earnest effort of the fearful, the seeking of the desirous, the gratitude of the cautious, and the humility of the pious, so that we may be for You as You love us to be, and so that we may dedicate our efforts to Your remembrance. O Allah, we ask You for a little deed done with sincerity, and make it a means of salvation for us. O Allah, we seek refuge in You from knowledge that does not benefit, from a heart that is not humbled, from a soul that is not satisfied, and from a dua that is not answered. O Allah, save us by Your mercy from Your punishment, until You enable us to reach Your Paradise. O Allah, help us to remember You, to thank You, and to worship You in the best manner. O Allah, make this gathering blessed and fruitful with goodness and benefit for all those present and for all Muslims. O Allah, accept from us and make it purely for Your noble Countenance.
In the name of Allah, I place my trust in Allah. And there is no might nor power except with Allah.
O Allah, remove my ignorance from me, make me forget my mistakes, let me taste the blessings of Your knowledge, and bring forth the spirit of wisdom into my chest.
O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the demolition of Your blessings, the turning of Your well-being, the suddenness of Your vengeance, and all that You detest. And I seek refuge in You from the evil of character, deeds, and desires.
Glory be to You, O Allah, and praise be to You. I bear witness that there is no god but You. I seek Your forgiveness and turn to You in repentance.
O Allah, bless our fruits, bless our city, bless our measure (of food), and bless our Sa' (a measure). O Allah, grant us well-being along with the means to reach our destination. O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the disappearance of Your blessings, from the change of Your protection, from the suddenness of Your punishment, and from all Your displeasure.
