بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Sayyiduna Salman narrates that the Messenger of Allah spoke to the Companions on the last day of Sha`ban. He informed them that they were about to entera great and blessed month, a month in which there is a night better than a thousand nights. He mentioned some of the merits of the month of Ramadan.
Then he said: “Do four things in abundance: two things with which you please your Lord, and two things which you cannot do without. As for the two things with which you please your Lord: your testification that there is nothing worthy of worship other than Allah and your seeking His forgiveness. As for the two things which you cannot do without: your asking Allah for Paradise and seeking refuge in Him from the Fire".
~Narrated by Ibn Khuzayma.
The Messenger of Allah taught al-Sayyida `A’isha to say on Laylat al-Qadr : “O Allah, truly You are all-Pardoning, You love to pardon so pardon us.
~Narrated by Ahmad, Ibn Majah and Tirmidhi with a sahih chain of transmission
On the basis of these two hadiths the scholars and people of Tarim repeat the following du`a throughout the month of Ramadan:
أشْهَدُ أن لا إلهَ إلا الله نَسْتَغْفِرُ الله نسأَلُكَ الجنَّةَ ونَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ النَّار
Ashadu alla ilaha illallah, nastaghfirullah, nas’aluk’l-jannata wa na`audhu bika min an-nar
“I testify that there is nothing worthy of worship other than Allah and we seek the forgiveness of Allah. We ask You for Paradise and take refuge in You from the Fire.” (3 times)
اللهمَّ انَّكَ عَفُوٌ تُحبُّ العفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنَّا (3) يا كريم
Allahumma innaka `afuwun tuhibbu-l’`afwa f`afwa `anna
“O Allah, truly You are all-Pardoning, You love to pardon so pardon us” (3 times). On the third time say “O Most Generous” (Ya Karim).
*The du'a has been compiled and translated for us by Sidi Amin Buxton (Allah preserve and increase him).
Ya Allah,
Bantu Kami ,
Menjalani ibadah puasa,
Menghidupkan malam,
Dan mengurangkan tidur dan kalam kami...
