Acceptance of Prayer
ACCEPTANCE OF PRAYER
This dua, Acceptance of prayer (Qabool Ibadah), is from Hazrat Ibrahim (AS) and Hazrat Ismail (AS), which was made while constructing Baitullah Sharif.
Prophet Muhammad (saw) said: "One prayer in my Mosque is better than one thousand prayers in any other mosque excepting Al-Masjid Al-Haram."
[Sahih Al-Bukhari]
The dua for acceptance of prayer is as follows:
Rabbana taqabbal Minna innaka antas-sami'ul aleem Rabbana wa-j'alna muslimaini laka wa min zurriyatinaa 'ummatan muslimatan laka wa 'Arina manasikana wa tub 'alaina 'innaka 'antat-Tawwabur-Raheem
O Allah! Accept this from us. You are All-Hearing, All- Knowing; O Allah! And make us Your firm believer and from our descendants make a group Your firm believer and show us the ways of Your worship, and turn to us in mercy. Indeed, You are Much-Relenting, Most Compassionate.
[surah baqarah 2:127-128]
