Sahih Hadith

اللَّهُمَّ مُلْهِمَ الصَّوَابِ، دَلِّ شَرِيكَ حَيَاتِي إِلَى الصَّوَابِ، وَأَرْشِدْهُ إِلَى سَوَاءِ السَّبِيلِ، وَزَيِّنْهُ بِالْحِكْمَةِ وَالْعِلْمِ، وَأَعِنْهُ عَلَى إِتْقَانِ مَهَارَتِهِ/مَوْهِبَتِهِ [اذكر المهارة أو الموهبة]، وَاجْعَلْهُ مِنْ عِبَادِكَ الْمُتَفَوِّقِينَ الَّذِينَ لَا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ.

O Allah, Inspirer of correctness, guide my life partner to what is right, and direct them to the straight path. Adorn them with wisdom and knowledge, and assist them in mastering their skill/talent [mention the skill or talent]. Make them among Your excellent servants who will have no fear nor grief.

Allahumma mulhimaṣ-ṣawāb, dalli sharīka ḥayātī ilaṣ-ṣawāb, wa-rshidhu ila sawā'is-sabīl, wa zayyin'hu bil-ḥikmati wal-'ilm, wa a'in'hu 'alā itqāni mahāratihi/mawhibatihi [dhukr al-mahārah aw al-mawḥibah], waj'alhu min 'ibādikal-mutafawwiqīn al-ladhīna lā khawfun 'alayhim wa lā hum yaḥzanūn.

When to Read

This dua is particularly beneficial when you notice your spouse is working hard to learn or improve a skill, be it professional, academic, artistic, or any other talent. Recite it during times of personal reflection, after prayers, or anytime you make supplication for them. It's a beautiful way to support their growth and acknowledge their efforts.

How to Read

Begin with sincerity and a pure intention for your spouse's success and well-being. Raise your hands in supplication as you would for yourself. Recite the dua with contemplation, focusing on the specific skill or talent you wish for them to excel in. You can pause and mention the skill or talent specifically when you reach the bracketed part. Make it a regular habit, showing consistent support through your words.
