Sending you a little gift. A little duah that you may or may not know.
ALLAHUMMA INNI AS’ ALUKA AL’AFIYAH*
*The SHORTEST BUT POWERFUL PRAYER**
*Do you know it ???*..
Al-Abbas (R.A.), the uncle of the Prophet (ﷺ), came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said:
“Ya Rasulullah, teach me a du’a.”
The Prophet ( ﷺ) said:
“O my uncle, say:
*ALLAHUMMA INNI AS’ ALUKA AL’AFIYAH*
(O Allah, I ask you for afiyah).
Now what is Afiyah?
Afiyah means –
● To be saved from any afflictions, you are in afiyah.
● To be healthy, you are in afiyah.
● To have enough money, you are in afiyah.
● To live, you are in afiyah.
● To have your children protected, you are in afiyah.
●And if you are forgiven and not punished, you are in afiyah.
So basically, Afiyah means:
“O Allah, protect me from any pain and sufferings.”
This includes both dun’ya and akhirah.
Al-Abbas (R.A.) thought about this for a while, and then he came back after a few days and said (paraphrased):
“Ya Rasulullah, this du’a seems a little short. I want something big.”
The Prophet (ﷺ) said:
“My dear uncle, ask Allah for Afiyah for Wallahi, you cannot be given anything better than afiyah.”
It is a simple du’a.
Sincerely mean what you say while praying.
“O Allah, I ask You to be saved from any:
distress,
grief,
hardship,
harm, and
don’t test me, etc.”
All of this is included in
*“Allahumma inni as’aluka al’afiyah”*
(Riyadh As Saliheen, Sunan At-Tirmidhi).
Make sure to share this to others and tell your friends:
Prophet Muhammed (ﷺ) said :
“Convey from me, even if it is one verse.”
May ALLAH accept all our prayers.
Aameen !
