اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْهُ حَجًّا مَبْرُورًا، وَسَعْيًا مَشْكُورًا، وَذَنْبًا مَغْفُورًا، وَعَمَلًا مُتَقَبَّلًا، وَتِجَارَةً لَنْ تَبُورَ
O Allah, make it (this Hajj/Umrah) a blessed pilgrimage, a sought-after effort, a forgiven sin, an accepted deed, and a trade that will never perish.
Allahumma ij'alhu hajjan mabrooran, wa sa'yan mashkooran, wa dhanban maghfooran, wa 'amalan mutaqabbalan, wa tijaratan lan taboor.

It's a moment to reflect on the profound spiritual undertaking and seek Allah's ultimate acceptance and reward.
How to Read
Recite this dua with sincere intention and a hopeful heart after concluding the rites of Hajj or Umrah.

Virtues & Benefits
This dua encapsulates the essence of seeking acceptance for a monumental act of worship. By asking for a 'mabroor' (accepted and blessed) Hajj, a 'mashkoor' (rewarded) effort, a 'maghfoor' (forgiven) sin, and a 'mutaqabbal' (accepted) deed, the pilgrim seeks the highest spiritual return. The final phrase, 'tijaratan lan taboor' (a trade that will never perish), highlights the eternal, incorruptible reward that comes from dedicating oneself to Allah's command, a stark contrast to worldly, perishable gains.

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: 'Whoever performs Hajj for the sake of Allah and does not have sexual relations or commit sins, he will return (free of sin) as if he were born again.' (Then he recited a verse): '...And what you do of good deeds, Allah knows it. And take a provision for the journey, but indeed, the best provision is taqwa (piety). So fear Me, O you of understanding.' (Al-Baqarah 2:197). And Abu Hurairah said that the Prophet (ﷺ) used to say when he finished Hajj: 'O Allah, make it a blessed pilgrimage, a sought-after effort, a forgiven sin, an accepted deed, and a trade that will never perish.'
