Hasan HadithSunan Ibn Majah 4054

اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ لاَ يَمْنَعُكَ مِنْ هَذَا البَيْتِ أَحَدٌ، اللَّهُمَّ فَلاَ تَدَعْهُ يَبِيتُ هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةَ، اللَّهُمَّ فَفُكَّ رِهَانَهُ، اللَّهُمَّ فَيسِّرْ فَتْحَهُ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَ مَا فِيهِ وَخَيْرَ مَا جِئْتَ بِهِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّهِ وَشَرِّ مَا جِئْتَ بِهِ، اللَّهُمَّ فُكَّ رِهَانَهُ

O Allah, You know that no one prevents access to this House (the Ka'bah). O Allah, do not let it remain unoccupied tonight. O Allah, release its bonds. O Allah, make its conquest easy. O Allah, I ask You for the good within it and the good that You have brought with it. And I seek refuge in You from its evil and the evil that You have brought with it. O Allah, release its bonds.

Allahumma innaka ta'lamu annahu la yamna'uka min hadhal-bayti ahad. Allahumma fala tada'hu yabitu hadhihil-laylah. Allahumma fafukka rihanahu. Allahumma fayassir fathahu. Allahumma inni as'aluka khayra ma fihi wa khayra ma ji'ta bihi, wa a'udhu bika min sharrihi wa sharri ma ji'ta bihi. Allahumma fukka rihanahu.

When to Read

This dua is specifically for moments of overwhelming challenge or when seeking divine assistance to overcome obstacles and achieve a righteous victory. It's particularly relevant when approaching a difficult task with the intention of pleasing Allah, asking for ease and protection from any harm associated with it.

How to Read

Recite with sincere conviction, focusing on Allah's power to facilitate what seems impossible. Visualize the Ka'bah as a symbol of divine guidance and your own aspirations.

Allahumma inni as'aluka khayra ma fihi wa khayra ma ji'ta bihi, wa a'udhu bika min sharrihi wa sharri ma ji'ta bihi. Allahumma fukka rihanahu.' (The translation of the dua is provided above).
