Dua for Knowledge and Wealth
DUA FOR KNOWLEDGE AND WEALTH
Astaghfar helps us relieve our worldly problems and bring happiness into our lives.
Prophet Muhammad (saw) used to recite this dua frequently: “Subhan Allahi wa bihamdihi; Astaghfirullaha wa atubu ilaihi ” (Allah is free from imperfection, and I begin with praising Him. I beg forgiveness from Allah and I turn to Him in repentance.)
[Bukhari, Muslim]
Reciting Astaghfar regularly abstains us from all forms of sins.
While reciting it, we think about Allah and hence the chances of doing wrong things out of fear of Allah are very less.
Allah says in the Qur'an:“ And such are the parables We set forth for mankind, but only those understand them who have knowledge. ”
[Surah Al-'Ankabut, Verse 43]
Hazrat Shaikh Jalaluddin Sayoti (r.a) reported that 'Whoever recites the following dua for knowledge and wealth (Astaghfar) 3 times after Fajr prayers, will have an understanding of knowledge and have an abundance of wealth.'
Astaghfirullahal Azeem al Lazee Laa ilaha illa Huwal Hayyul Qayyumu Badi'us Samawati Wal Arz Wama Bainahuma Min Jami'i Jurumi Wa Israfi Ala Nafsi Wa Atoobu ilaihi
I ask forgiveness from Allah Who is Great, than Whom there is no God, the Living, the Eternal. The Heavens and the Earth and all that is between them, He is the Creator of all.
For all my sins and the excesses of my nafs, I turn to Him for repentance.
