Muslims should get in the habit of
remembering Allah in everything we do. In
the following pages, readers will find the
supplications (du'aas) for many different
things. And who better to follow and learn
from than our Holy Prophet (SAW). He (SAW)
was the perfect role model because his
actions and behavior were exemplary.
Prophet Muhammad (SAW) always had the
remembrance of Allah in thoughts, actions,
and sayings. We, too, should try and emulate
his (SAW) behavior by learning how to keep
remembrance of Allah in our daily lives.
Between the time we get up and the time
we go to sleep, there is a du'a for almost
every act of our lives. During the holy month
of Ramadan, let us spend time memorizing
these supplications to ensure that we are
constantly thanking Allah for our multitude
of blessings.
Upon Traveling (Taking a Trip)
"Whoever wants to travel should say to
those whom he leaves behind,
ﺃَﺳْﺘَﻮْﺩِﻋُﻜُﻢُ ﺍﻟﻠَّﻪَ ﺍﻟَّﺬِﻱ ﻻ ﺗَﻀِﻴْﻊُ
ﻭَﺩَﺍﺋِﻌُﻪُ
'Astawdi'ukumu-l-llaha l-ladi la tadi'u
wada'i'uh.'
(I entrust you to Allah, to Whom anything
entrusted shall never be lost.)" (Ibn Alsanni)

What To Say To The Groom On Marrying
ﺑَﺎﺭَﻙَ ﺍﻟﻠَّﻪ ُُ ﻟَﻚَ، ﻭَﺑَﺎﺭَﻙَ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻚَ، ﻭَﺟَﻤَﻊَ
ﺑَﻴْﻨَﻜُﻤَﺎ ﻓِﻲ ﺧَﻴْﺮ
'Barak allaho laka wa baraka alaika wa
jamaa ainakuma fee khair.'
(May Allah bless you and shower His blessing
upon you and keep you in a happy union.)

Upon Eating & Drinking
"Mention the name of Allah (Bismillah) eat
with your right hand, and eat from what is
near to you."
"When one of you eats, he should mention
the name of Allah before beginning.
ﺑِﺴْﻢِ ﺍﻟﻠَّﻪ
'Bismillah'
(In the name of Allah.)

And if he forgets, he should say,
ﺑِﺴْﻢِ ﺍﻟﻠَّﻪِ ﻓِﻲ ﺃَﻭَّﻟِﻪ ِِ ﻭَﺁﺧِﺮِﻩِ
'Bismillah awalu wa akhiru."
(In the name of Allah in the start and the
end.)"

To Protect Oneself
"If Allah bestows favors over his slave,
whether on his family, children, or property
and he says,
ﻣَﺎ ﺷَﺎﺀَ ﺍﻟﻠَّﻪ، ﻻ ﻗُﻮَّﺓَ ﺇِﻻَّ ﺑِﺎﻟﻠَّﻪ
'Masha Allah la qwata ila billah.'
(What Allah has willed there is no might
except with Allah.)
nothing should overcome him." (Ibn Alsanni)
Waking Up from a Bad Dream
"If any of you saw a dream which he liked,
then that was from Allah, and he should
thank Allah for it and tell it to others. But if
he saw something else, i.e. a dream that he
did not like, then that is from Satan and he
should seek refuge with Allah from it and
should not tell it to anybody for it will not
harm him." (B)
"A good dream is from Allah and a bad
dream is from Satan. So whoever has seen
(in a dream) something he disliked, then he
should spit without saliva thrice on his left
side and seek refuge with Allah from Satan
by saying:
ﺍﻋﻮﺫ ﺑﺎﻟﻠﻪ ﻣﻦ ﺍﻟﺸﻴﻄﺎﻥ ﺍﻟﺮﺟﻴﻢ
'A'oothu bilahe minashaitan arajeem.'
(I seek refuge with Allah from the accursed
devil.)
Then it will not harm him, and Satan cannot
appear in my shape.'
