โœฆ

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

*Rabbana hablana min azwajina wa dhurriyyatina qurrata a'yunin waj'alna lil-muttaqeena imaman*

When to Read

This beautiful supplication from Surah Al-Furqan is perfect for reciting at any time, especially during times of quiet reflection like after salah (obligatory prayers) or during the Tahajjud (night prayer). You can also make it a regular part of your supplications after the Fajr prayer, seeking Allah's blessing for your family life. Making this dua with sincerity when you feel a need to strengthen the bond with your spouse and family can bring immense barakah (blessings).

How to Read

Recite this ayah with sincerity and heartfelt conviction. Focus your intention on seeking Allah's help to foster love, peace, and understanding within your marriage. Visualize your home filled with warmth and your spouse's eyes filled with joy at your presence, and vice versa. It's also beneficial to raise your hands slightly while making dua, as is the practice of the Prophet Muhammad ๏ทบ, and to face the Qiblah (direction of prayer) if possible. Remember that sincerity and certainty in Allah's response are key components of accepted dua.

Virtues & Benefits

This ayah encompasses a profound request for a righteous family life. By asking for spouses and children to be 'comfort to our eyes' (qurrata a'yunin), we are asking for them to be a source of joy, peace, and contentment, and for our presence to be the same for them. This mutual happiness is the bedrock of a strong, affectionate marriage. Furthermore, asking to be made 'an example to the righteous' elevates the aspiration beyond personal comfort to becoming a beacon of good for others, strengthening the family's commitment to Islam together. It's a holistic dua for a blessed and righteous household, fostering deep, lasting affection grounded in shared faith.
