اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ عِلْمًا نَافِعًا، وَرِزْقًا طَيِّبًا، وَعَمَلًا مُتَقَبَّلًا

How to Read
Recite this supplication with sincere intention and a present heart after you have finished your obligatory Fajr prayer. It's a good practice to sit in your prayer space or a quiet place where you can focus your mind and supplicate to Allah.
Virtues & Benefits
This dua encapsulates seeking three essential pillars for a fulfilling life. Beneficial knowledge guides us to do what is right and avoid what is wrong. Good provision allows us to sustain ourselves and our families with halal earnings, free from ill-gotten gains. Acceptable deeds are those performed sincerely for Allah's pleasure, which He accepts from us. By asking for these, we are essentially asking for the strength and clarity to speak truth and act justly, as this knowledge and these deeds will naturally lead us to uphold what is right.
