*Dua when waking up:*

اَلْحَمْدُ لِـلٌٰـهِ الَّذِي أَحْيَانَا بَعْدَ مَا أَمَاتَنَا وَإِلَيْهِ النُّشُورُ

*Translation:* All praise is due to Allaah who has given us life after death (sleep). And to Him is our raising up (on the day of Qiyaamah). (Bukhaaree)

We must thank Allaah to have continued our life from sleep (which seemed a form of  death).

*Plan Ramadan: Time to Detox*

*The following are some of the key aspects we should focus on:*

1️⃣. Eating Food is the fuel of desires. The more we fill our stomachs, the  lazier we feel to perform ʿibādah. If we eat a lot, we drink a  lot. And this makes us sleep a lot, which leads to us losing  out on precious time. The Prophet ﷺ ordered the unmarried  companions to fast, because fasting is meant to curtail and  restrain sexual desire.

Likewise, we have to internalise that Ramaḍān is about  fasting, not feasting. We shouldn’t spend too much time  preparing our meals. Naturally the long hours leave us hungry,  making us want to cook more than usual. Similarly, we should  not pressurise our family members to cook elaborate meals  for us.

Imām al-Ghazalī رَحِمَهُ الله explained that one will only reap the full  benefit of a fast if one does not over eat at ifṭār. We should  only eat what one would usually eat on a normal night.  Otherwise, the purpose of fasting will not be fulfilled and it  will be easier for Shayṭān to make inroads into our hearts.

*TAHAJJUD (STANDING FOR PRAYER AT NIGHT)*

Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said:

"You should pray Qiyaam Al-Layl (Tahajjud). For it is  the custom of the righteous before you. Qiyaam Al Layl indeed brings you closer to your Rabb, provides  protection against sins, it expiates sins and prevents ailments from the body." (Sunan Al-Tirmidhi)

A man said to Ibraaheem ibn Adham, "I cannot pray qiyaam al-layl, so tell me the cure for this." He said, *"Do not commit sin during the day, and He will help you to stand before Him at night, for your standing before Him at night is one of the greatest honours, and the sinner does not deserve that honour."*

Masruq reported: I asked A'isha رَضِيَ ٱلله عَنْهَا‎ about The Prophet's night prayer. She  answered: "It was (varying between) seven, nine, and eleven Rak'as, in addition to the  two Rak'as (sunna) of The Fajr."  

A'isha "Allah be pleased with her" narrated: The Prophet "Allah's blessing  and peace be upon him" used to offer thirteen Rak'as as the night prayer including the  odd one and the two Rak'as (the Sunna) of the Fajr prayer.  (11) The Prophet's standing for prayer, and sleeping,

{Sahih Bukhari}

*TAHAJJUD DUA:*

 *اَللّٰهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ قَيِّمُ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَمَنْ فِيهِنَّ وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ، لَكَ مُلْكُ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَمَنْ فِيهِنَّ، وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ نُورُ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ، وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ الْحَقُّ، وَوَعْدُكَ الْحَقُّ، وَلِقَاؤُكَ حَقٌّ، وَقَوْلُكَ حَقٌّ، وَالْجَنَّةُ حَقٌّ، وَالنَّارُ حَقٌّ، وَالنَّبِيُّونَ حَقٌّ، وَمُحَمَّدٌ صلى الله عليه وسلم حَقٌّ، وَالسَّاعَةُ حَقٌّ، اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ أَسْلَمْتُ، وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ وَعَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ، وَإِلَيْكَ أَنَبْتُ، وَبِكَ خَاصَمْتُ، وَإِلَيْكَ حَاكَمْتُ، فَاغْفِرْ لِي مَا قَدَّمْتُ وَمَا أَخَّرْتُ، وَمَا أَسْرَرْتُ وَمَا أَعْلَنْتُ، أَنْتَ الْمُقَدِّمُ وَأَنْتَ الْمُؤَخِّرُ، لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ وَلاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاَّ بِاللَّهِ*

Allahumma lakal-hamd. Anta qaiyyimus-samawati wal-ard wa man fihinna. Walakal-hamd, Laka mulkus-samawati wal-ard wa man fihinna. Walakal-hamd, anta nurus-samawati wal-ard. Wa lakal-hamd, anta-l-haq wa wa'duka-lhaq, wa liqa'uka Haq, wa qauluka Haq, wal-jannatu Han wan-naru Haq wannabiyuna Haq. Wa Muhammadun, sallal-lahu'alaihi wasallam, Haq, was-sa'atu Haq. Allahumma aslamtu Laka wabika amantu, wa 'Alaika tawakkaltu, wa ilaika anabtu wa bika khasamtu, wa ilaika hakamtu faghfir li ma qaddamtu wama akh-khartu wama as-rartu wama'a lantu, anta-l-muqaddim wa anta-l-mu akh-khir, la ilaha illa anta (or la ilaha ghairuka).

Ibn Abbas "Allah be pleased with both" narrated: Whenever The Prophet  "Allah's blessing and peace be upon him" got up for prayer at night, offering the  Tahajjud, he used to supplicate to Allah as saying: "O Allah! All the praises be to You;  You are the Holder of the Heavens and the Earth, and whatever is in them. All the  praises be to You; You have the possession of the Heavens and the Earth and whatever  is in them. All the praises be to You; You are the Light of the Heavens and the Earth.  All the praises be to You; You are the King of the Heavens and the Earth. All the  praises be to You; You are the Truth and Your Promise is the truth, And meeting You  is true, Your Word is the truth And Paradise is true And Hell is true And all The  Prophets (Peace be upon them) are true; And Mohammad "Allah's blessing and peace  be upon him" is true, And the Day of Judgement is true. 0 Allah ! I surrender (my will)  to you; I believe in you and depend on you. I repent to You, And with Your help I  argue (with my opponents, the non-believers) And I take you as a judge (to judge  between us). Please forgive me my previous and future sins; and whatever I concealed  or revealed; And You are the One who make (some people) forward and (others)  backward. There is no God to be worshipped but you ." 

Abdul 'karim added: "There is  neither power nor might except with you)."

{Sahih Bukhari}

Anas lbn Malek (R.A.A.) narrated that the Prophet (S.A.W.) said,  "Whoever prayed the Fajr prayers in congregation and stays sitting in his place  while remembering Allah (S.W.T.) until the sun rises and then performs two  raka'as, then that will be recorded for him the same as if he performed Hajj and  Omra. *" Anas said that the Prophet (S.A.W.) said, "Complete, complete,  complete (rewards)."*  Abu E'isa said that this hadeeth is hasan gharib.

*Dua to be recited in the morning:*

 *بِسۡـــــمِ اللهِ الرَّحۡمٰنِ الرَّحِيۡمِ*

أَصْبَـحْـنا وَأَصْبَـحْ المُـلكُ للهِ رَبِّ العـالَمـين ، اللّهُـمَّ إِنِّـي أسْـأَلُـكَ خَـيْرَ هـذا الـيَوْم ، فَـتْحَهُ ، وَنَصْـرَهُ ، وَنـورَهُ وَبَـرَكَتَـهُ ، وَهُـداهُ ، وَأَعـوذُ بِـكَ مِـنْ شَـرِّ ما فـيهِ وَشَـرِّ ما بَعْـدَه

The morning has come to me and the whole universe belongs to Allaah, the Lord of the worlds, O Allaah, I ask of YOU the good of the day, it's success and aid and it's nur (celestial light) and barakaat (blessings) and seek hidayah (guidance) and seek refuge from the evil in it (this day) and from the evil of that which is to come later.

(Hisn from Abu Dawood)

أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ الْعَظِيمَ الَّذِي لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ الْحَيُّ الْْقَيُّومُ وَ أَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ

*3 times every morning:*

رَضِيتُ بِاللَّهِ رَبَّاً وَبِالْإِسْلَامِ دِينَاً وَبِمُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّم نَبِيَّاً َ

I am pleased with ALLAH as my Lord, Islam as my religion, and Prophet Muhammad  صَلَّى (اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ) my Nabi.

اللهُمَّ اكْفِنِي بِحَلالِكَ عَنْ حَرامكْ، وَأَغْنِني بِفَضْلِكَ عَمَّنْ سِواك

‘ALLAHUmmak finee bi halalika an haramik  wa aghninee bi fadhlika amman siwak.’

O ALLAH! Let the Halal things you provide suffice me from haram, and by YOUR Grace, keep me independent from all besides YOU.

اللهمَّ إنِّي أعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ جَهْدِ الْبَلَاءِ، وَدَرَكِ الشَّقَاءِ، وَسُوءِ الْقَضَاءِ، وَشَمَاتَةِ الْأَعْدَاءِ

ALLAHUMA Inni A'oozu bika min jahdil balaai wa darkiShaqaai wa sooilQadhai wa shamatatilA'adai

O ALLAH! I seek refuge in YOU from severe trials and hardships, to be overtaken by wretchedness and bad fate and rejoicing of enemies

Salaat, Salaam and Salutations Upon The Protector and Guide of The Believers, Our beloved Nabi ﷺ

*Beutiful duas our nabi ﷺ should make during his blessed life, let us make these duas in our everyday  lives InshaAllah*

اَللّٰهُمَّ افْتَحْ مَسَامِعَ قَلْبِيْ لِذِكْرِكَ، وَارْزُقْنِيْ طَاعَتَكَ، وَطَاعَةَ رَسُوْلِكَ، وَعَمَلًاُ  بِكِتَابِكَ

0 Allaah, open my heart to the hearing of Your remembrance.  Grant me obedience to You and to Your Messenger ﷺ and (grant  me) performance of deeds according to Your Book.

اَللّٰهُمَّ الْطُفْ بِيْ فِيْ تَيْسِيْرِ كُلِّ عَسِيْرٍ، فَإِنَّ تَيْسِيْرَ كُلِّ عَسِيْرٍ عَلَيْكَ يَسِيْرٌ، وَّأَسْأَلُكَ اليُسْرَ وَالْمْعَافَاةَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْاٰخِرَةِ. اَللّٰهُمَّ اعْفُ عَنِّىْ فَإِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ كَرِيْمٌ

0 Allaah, extend Your graciousness to me by turning all dif ficulties into ease, for to make a difficulty easy is very easy for You.  And I ask You for ease and forgiveness in the world and in the  Hereafter. 0 Allaah, forgive me for indeed You are the Generous Forgiver.

اَللّٰهُمَّ طَهِّرْ قَلْبِيْ مِنَ النِّفَاقِ، وَعَمَلِيْ مِنَ الرِّيَاءِ، وَلِسَانِيْ مِنَ الْكَذِبِ، وَعَيْنِيْ مِنَ الْخِيَانَةِ، فَإِنَّكَ تَعْلَمُ خَائِنَةَ الْأَعْيُنِ وَمَا تُخْفِي الصُّدُوْرُ

0 Allaah, purify my heart from hypocrisy, my deeds from ostentation and pretension, my tongue from lies, and my eyes from  wrongful glances. For, indeed, You know what the eyes deceptively  glance at and what the hearts conceal.

اَللّٰهُمَّ ارْزُقْنِيْ عَبْنَيْنِ هَطَّالَتَيْنِ، تَشْفِيَانِ الْقَلْبَ بِذُرُوْفِ الدُّمُوْعِ مِنْ خَشْيَتِكَ، قَبْلَ أَنْ تَكُوْنَ الدُّمُوْعُ دَمًا وَّالْأَضْرَاسُ جَمْرًا

0 Allaah, grant me profusely weeping eyes that comfort the  heart with tears that flow out of Your fear-before the time comes  when eyes will be shedding blood and teeth will become embers

اَللّٰهُمَّ عَافِنِيْ فِيْ قُدْرَتِكَ، وَأَدْخِلْنِيْ فِيْ رَحْمَتِكَ، وَاقْضِ أَجَلِيْ فِيْ طَاعَتِكَ، واخْتِمْ لِيْ بِخَيْرِ عَمَلِيْ، وَاجْعَلْ ثَوَابَهُ الْجَنَّةَ

0 Allah, grant me security with Your power, admit me to Your mercy, let me spend my entire life in Your obedience, let my life  end with my best deed, and make Paradise its reward.

*Read the following dua 3 times after Fajr Salaah:*

سُبْحَانَ اللهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ: عَدَدَ خَلْقِهِ،  وَرِضَا نَفْسِهِ، وَزِنَةَ عَرْشِهِ وَمِدَادَ كَلِمَاتِهِ

Subhan-ALLAHI wa bihamdihi, `adada khalqihi, wa rida nafsihi, wa zinatah `arshihi, wa midada kalimatihi

Allaah سُبْحَٰنَهُ وَتَعَٰلَىٰ, is free from imperfection & I begin with HIS praise, as many times as the number of HIS creatures, in accordance with HIS Good Pleasure, equal to the weight of HIS Throne & equal to the ink that may be used in recording the words [for HIS Praise].

[Sahih Muslim]

*Dua when leaving ur home:*

بِسْمِ اللهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَى اللهِ وَ لَا حَوْلَ وَ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللهِ

*Translation:* In the name of Allaah, I place my trust in Allaah and there is no power and might except from Allaah. (Aboo Daawood)

*AYUTUL KURSI:*

اَللهُ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَ الْحَـيُّ الْقَيُّوْمُ ۚ لَا تَأْخُذُهٗ سِنَةٌ وَّلَا نَوْمٌ ۗ لَهٗ مَا فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَا فِى الْاَ رْضِ ۗ مَنْ ذَا الَّذِيْ يَشْفَعُ عِنْدَهٗۤ اِلَّا بِاِذْنِهٖ ۗ يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ اَيْدِيْهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ ۚ وَلَا يُحِيْطُوْنَ بِشَيْءٍ مِِّنْ عِلْمِهٖۤ اِلَّا بِمَا شَآءَ ۚ وَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَا لْاَ رْضَ ۚ وَلَا يَــئُوْدُهٗ حِفْظُهُمَا ۚ وَ هُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيْمُ ۝

"Allah - there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills. His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not. And He is the Most High, the Most Great."

[Al-Baqara 2: Verse 255]

*Recite while Leaving Your House, And 70,000 Angels Will Protect You from All sides.*
