 1 . Introduction to Ramadan and
the Importance of Dua
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, and it is a time
of fasting, prayer, and reflection for Muslims around the world as
per the divine commandment from Allah ‫ﷻ‬:

َ َ َ
َ ‫َب َعَلى اَّلِذ‬ ُ َ ُ ‫الِّص ََي‬ ُ
ّ ‫َب َعَل ْْيُك ُُم‬ َ َ ُ ُ َ َ
َ ‫ََيا َأُّيَُهَ ا اَّلِذ‬
َ ‫يَن‬
‫يَن ِمن‬ َ ‫اُم َك ََما ُكِت‬ َ ‫آَمُنوا ُكِت‬
ِ ِ ِ ِ ِ
َ‫ََق ْْبِل ُُك ْْم ََل ََعَّلَ ُُك ْْم ََتَّتَ ُُقوَن‬
ِ
O you who believe! fasting is prescribed for you, as it was prescribed for
those before you, so that you may guard (against evil).
(Al-Baqara, 2:183)

During this month, Muslims abstain from food, drink, and other
physical needs from dawn until sunset to purify the body and soul
and get closer to Allah ‫ﷻ‬.

One of the most important aspects of Ramadan is the practice of

making Dua and supplications, which are prayers and requests made
to Allah. Dua are an essential part of Muslim worship and are a way
of seeking Allah’s ‫ ﷻ‬help and guidance in all aspects of life.

During Ramadan, Muslims are encouraged to increase their Dua and

Supplications, as this is a time of great spiritual significance and
blessings. In fact, the Prophet Muhammad ‫ ﷺ‬said, "When Ramadan
enters, the gates of Paradise are opened, the gates of Hellfire are
closed, and the devils are chained." This means that in Ramadan,
it is easier to seek Allah’s ‫ ﷻ‬forgiveness and ask for His mercy and
blessings.

We have compiled a collection of Dua and supplications from Qur’an

and Sunnah that are particularly useful during Ramadan. These Dua
cover various topics, from seeking forgiveness and good health to
asking for protection and guidance.

 The correct etiquette of making
Dua properly
Duas are an essential part of our daily worship and communication
with Allah. However, it is crucial to understand that our Dua
depends on our focus, sincerity, and preparation level.

1. Choose the right time and place. Choose a time and place
where you are least likely to be distracted or interrupted. It is best
to make Dua during the times of the day when it is most likely to be
answered, such as after the obligatory prayers, during the last third
of the night, and during the time of breaking the fast in Ramadan.
Make sure the place is clean and quiet, and you are facing the Qiblah
if possible.

2. Perform ablution. Performing ablution (wudu) before making

Dua is highly recommended. Ablution purifies our body and mind
and increases our level of focus and sincerity in Dua.

3. Start with praising Allah. Start your Dua by praising Allah and
recognising His power and mercy. This helps us to connect with
Allah ‫ ﷻ‬and to acknowledge His greatness and goodness. For
example, you can start your Dua by saying «SubhanAllah» (Glory be
to Allah) or «Alhamdulillah» (All praise is due to Allah).

4. Ask for forgiveness. Ask Allah ‫ ﷻ‬for forgiveness for any sins
or mistakes you may have committed, and seek His mercy and
guidance. This helps us remove any obstacles that may be blocking
our Dua and increase our humility and sincerity.

5. Make Dua with conviction and sincerity. Make Dua with a

strong conviction that Allah ‫ ﷻ‬will answer your Dua and with
sincerity of heart. This means you should fully trust Allah’s power
and mercy and avoid any distractions or insincere intentions.

6. End with praising Allah and sending blessings upon the Prophet ‫ﷺ‬.
End your Dua by praising Allah ‫ ﷻ‬and sending salutations upon the
Prophet ‫ﷺ‬, as this is a way of showing gratitude to Allah ‫ ﷻ‬and
seeking His blessings and mercy.

5
We hope this Dua book, produced and compiled by the East London
Mosque, will be a useful resource for Muslims during Ramadan and
help deepen our connection with Allah ‫ ﷻ‬and gain the maximum
benefit from this blessed month.

We pray you remember your brothers and sisters in other parts of

the world who are less fortunate than us and are suffering from
poverty and affliction through no fault of their own.

Indeed, as Allah ‫ ﷻ‬mentions to us in the Qur’an:

ۡ ‫ُرۡي‬
َ‫ٱۡل َٰٰم� ِكِر يَن‬ َ ‫ََوٱلَّلَ ُُه‬
�ُ ‫َخ‬
ِ ِ
“And Allah is the best of planners.” (Al-Anfal, 8:30)

We should use every opportunity available to us to give in charity

and to help others in need, especially during Ramadan.

2. Daily Dua and Supplications

It is important for Muslims to engage in daily remembrance of Allah,

seeking His blessings, guidance, and forgiveness throughout the day.
This section lists Dua and supplications that can be recited during
various times of the day.

 8 . Importance of Dua in
Ramadan
Ramadan is a blessed month for Muslims, and it provides us with
a unique opportunity to renew our faith and connect with Allah
through various acts of worship, including Duas and Supplications.
Duas are a means of seeking Allah’s guidance, blessings, and
forgiveness, and they are a powerful tool for strengthening our
relationship with Him.

In this short book, we have compiled a list of Duas that are

relevant to various aspects of our lives, such as health, family, and
community. We have also provided some tips on preparing for Dua
to make them more effective and meaningful. If you would like to
learn more Duas and supplications for different aspects of your life,
please download a copy of the Hisnul Muslim from here: https://
ahadith.co.uk/downloads/en_hisn_al-muslim.pdf

It is essential to understand that the power of Dua lies not only in

reciting specific phrases or supplications, but also in having a strong
Imaan (belief) and Yaqeen (conviction) in Allah’s power over all
things and that His mercy prevails over everything. Dua is a means
of connecting with Allah and seeking His guidance, and they are not
a substitute for taking practical steps towards achieving our goals or
solving our problems – we need to take the first step – and then rely
upon our Lord. Indeed, narrated in a hadith (Sahih Muslim):

Abu Dharr reported: The Messenger of Allah ‫ ﷺ‬said,

“Allah Almighty says: Whoever comes with a good deed will have the
reward of ten like it and even more. Whoever comes with an evil deed
will be recompensed for one evil deed like it or he will be forgiven.
Whoever draws close to Me by the length of a hand, I will draw close to
him by the length of an arm. Whoever draws close to Me the by length
of an arm, I will draw close to him by the length of a fathom. Whoever
comes to Me walking, I will come to him running. Whoever meets Me
with enough sins to fill the earth, not associating any partners with Me,
I will meet him with as much forgiveness.”
23
During Ramadan, we should strive to make Dua a regular part of
our daily routine and use this blessed month to strengthen our
relationship with Allah.

Let us take advantage of this opportunity to seek Allah’s guidance

and blessings, and may He accept all of our Duas and supplications.
Ameen.
