When to Read
This powerful dua is recommended to be recited when you reach Maqam Ibrahim (the Station of Ibrahim) after completing your Tawaf during Hajj or Umrah. The Quran directs us to take the place of Ibrahim as a place of prayer: "And take you [O Muslims] the Station of Ibrahim as a place of prayer." (Al-Baqarah 2:125). Standing here, remembering Ibrahim's sacrifice and struggle, is a profound moment to supplicate.
How to Read
After completing your Tawaf around the Ka'bah, you proceed to Maqam Ibrahim. Ideally, you should then pray two rak'ahs of salah behind it, reciting Surah Al-Kafirun in the first rak'ah and Surah Al-Ikhlas in the second. Following this prayer, you can recite this specific dua. It's a time to focus your heart, turn to Allah with sincerity, and ask Him for entry and exit in truth, reflecting the sincerity of Ibrahim (peace be upon him) himself.
Virtues & Benefits
