My Lord, enable me to be grateful for Your favor which You have bestowed upon me and upon my parents and to do righteousness of which You approve. And admit me by Your mercy into [the company of] Your righteous servants.

Rabbi awzi'ni an ashkura ni'matakal-lati an'amta 'alayya wa 'ala walidayya wa an a'mala salihan tarkadahu wa adkhilni birahmatika fi 'ibadik-as-salihin

When to Read

This powerful dua is particularly relevant when we reflect on the immense blessings Allah has bestowed upon us and our parents. It's a plea for divine assistance in acknowledging these blessings and living a life that pleases Allah, which indirectly encourages our parents to fulfill any vows they may have made. It can be recited anytime, but especially during times of gratitude or when seeking Allah's help for our family's righteous deeds.

How to Read

Recite this ayah with sincerity and a hopeful heart. Focus on the intention of seeking Allah's help not only for yourself but also for your parents. Understand that fulfilling promises to Allah is a sign of true faith and gratitude. Make it a regular part of your supplications.

Virtues & Benefits

This dua encapsulates gratitude, righteousness, and seeking Allah's mercy for oneself and one's parents. By asking Allah to enable us to be grateful and do righteous deeds, we are essentially asking for the strength to uphold our commitments, including those made to Allah. This habit of seeking Allah's help for good deeds will, by extension, inspire and support our parents in fulfilling their own promises to Him. It is a comprehensive supplication for spiritual well-being for the entire family.
