โœฆ

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

Rabbana hablana min azwajina wa dhurriyatina qurrata a'yunin waj'alna lilmuttaqeena imama

When to Read

This is a beautiful and comprehensive dua from the Quran that can be recited at any time, but it is particularly poignant to make it during your daily prayers (salat), especially in sujood (prostration) when closeness to Allah is amplified. You can also make it in your personal supplications (dua) at any point you feel the need to ask Allah for guidance and strength for your spouse and family.

How to Read

Recite this dua with sincerity and focus, reflecting on its profound meaning. Visualize your spouse embodying responsibility and acting as a pillar of strength in your family. Understand that this is a request for Allah's blessing and guidance, not a demand. Be patient and trust in His wisdom, continuing to supplicate with conviction.

Virtues & Benefits

This dua encompasses multiple blessings: 1. **'Qurrata a'yunin' (comfort to our eyes):** This signifies finding joy, peace, and satisfaction in one's spouse and children. A responsible spouse contributes significantly to this peace. 2. **'Waj'alna lilmuttaqeena imama' (and make us an example for the righteous):** This is a request to be leaders in righteousness, which includes setting a positive example of responsibility and duty for others, especially one's family. By asking for this, we are seeking for our spouses to be role models of good character and commitment.
