โœฆ

Our Lord, pour down on us patience and let us die as Muslims (in submission to You).

Rabbana afrigh 'alayna sabran wa tawaffana Muslimeen

When to Read

Recite this dua before or during Hajj and Umrah, especially when you feel overwhelmed by the crowds, the heat, the long waits, or any other challenges that test your patience. It's a powerful plea to Allah to strengthen your resolve during these intense spiritual journeys.

How to Read

This is a supplication from the Quran, taught directly by Allah. Recite it with sincerity and a humble heart, focusing on the meaning and your need for Allah's help to remain steadfast and accepting of His decree. Raising your hands is a customary practice during dua, but not a strict requirement for Quranic supplications.

Virtues & Benefits

This dua embodies a comprehensive request for two vital spiritual states: immense patience ('sabr') in the face of hardship and a firm commitment to dying as a Muslim. When performing Hajj and Umrah, patience is paramount. The sheer numbers of people, the physical exertion, and the emotional intensity can be overwhelming. This dua directly asks Allah to 'pour down' patience, implying a deep and overflowing wellspring of strength. It also connects this worldly endurance to the ultimate goal: a death in a state of submission to Allah, ensuring a good end.
