Qur’an & Hadith Reference

Allah Himself invites us to call upon Him — a promise as vast and certain as His mercy:

“Call upon Me; I will respond to you.” (Surah Ghafir 40:60)

‘Aishah said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) liked comprehensive supplication and abandoned other kinds. (Sunan Abi Dawud 1482)

‘Abd Allah b. ‘Abbas said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to teach us this supplication as he taught us the surah from the Qur’an. He would say: O Allah! I seek refuge in You from the punishment of Hell and I seek refuge in You from the punishment of the grave, and I seek refuge from You from the trails of Al-Masihid-Dajjal, and I seek refuge in You from the trials of life and death. (Sunan Abi Dawud 1542)

Farwah b. Nawfal Al-Ashja’i asked ‘Aishah the Mother of the Believers, about the supplication of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). She replied:

He would say: ‘O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the evil of what I have done, and from the evil of what I have not done.’ (Sunan Abi Dawud 1550)
