When to Read
This dua is recited when leaving the Masjid. It's a beautiful way to transition from a state of worship and closeness to Allah within His house back into the world, while still seeking His blessings.
How to Read
Recite this dua with sincerity after you have finished your prayers and are preparing to leave the Masjid. It's recommended to exit with your right foot first, just as you enter with your left.
Virtues & Benefits
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught this dua, signifying our constant need for Allah's grace and bounty. It reminds us that every good thing comes from Him, and by asking for His bounty, we are seeking His continued favor and provision even as we step back into our daily lives. This plea for 'fadl' (bounty, grace, favor) is a comprehensive request for all that is good, both in this life and the next. It reflects a deep understanding that even our ability to worship and benefit from the Masjid's atmosphere is a blessing from Allah.
