โœฆ

Our Lord, grant us from among our spouses and our offspring the coolness of our eyes, and make us an example for the righteous.

Rabbana hablana min azwajina wa dhurriyatina qurrata a'yunin waj'alna lil-muttaqeena imama

When to Read

This powerful supplication from the Quran can be recited at any time, but it's particularly potent during the latter part of the night (Qiyam al-layl), after prayers (Salah), or during the sacred months. Many find it beneficial to make this dua during times of sujud (prostration) within their prayers, or as part of their daily invocation list, especially when feeling the pangs of loneliness and yearning for a righteous life partner.

How to Read

Recite this ayah with sincerity and deep conviction, visualizing the beautiful family life you hope to build. It's recommended to raise your hands in supplication as the Prophet Muhammad ๏ทบ taught us, facing the Qiblah if possible. Maintain a state of purity (Wudu) and focus your heart on Allah's mercy and power to answer your dua. Repeat it consistently, trusting in Allah's perfect timing.

Virtues & Benefits

This dua encapsulates a holistic request for a righteous spouse and righteous offspring, seeing them as a source of comfort ('coolness of the eyes') and a means to excel in piety. It's not just about finding a partner, but about building a family unit that strives for righteousness and inspires others. The latter part, 'and make us an example for the righteous,' highlights the aspiration to be leaders in faith and good deeds. It directly combats loneliness by asking for companionship that brings joy and spiritual fulfillment.
