Some supplications of the Prophet


344

Q 2: What are the Adhkar (invocations and remembrances said at certain times on a regular basis) reported from the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)?


A: You can refer to the book (Al-Kalim Al-Tayyib) by Shaykh-ul-Islam Ahmad ibn Taymiyyah (may Allah be merciful to him), (Al-Wabil Al-Sayyib) by his scholar Ibn Al-Qayyim (may Allah be merciful to him) and similar books written by other scholars on the Islamically lawful Adhkar. For example, When the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said Taslim (salutation of peace ending the Prayer) after one of the Five obligatory Daily Prayers, he used to beg forgiveness three times, and say: O Allah! You are Peace, and peace comes from You; Blessed are You, to You all Majesty and Grace are due. He would then say: There is none worthy of worship (in truth) but Allah. He is Alone. There is no partner with Him. Sovereignty belongs to Him and to Him praise is due. He is Potent over everything. There is neither might nor power except with Allah. There is none worthy of worship (in truth) but Allah and we do not worship but Him, Alone. To Him belong all bounties, to Him belong all Grace, and He is worthy of sweet praise. There is none worthy of worship (in truth) but Allah, to Whom we are sincere in devotion, even though the disbelievers detest it. O Allah! Nobody can withhold what You give and nobody can give what You withhold. Possession of wealth or majesty does not benefit anyone, as wealth and majesty come from You. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
