DUA FOR REMEMBRANCE, GRATITUDE AND WORSHIP

 

Dua for remembrance, gratitude and worship

Why this Dua Matters

This dua focuses on three spiritual pillars: remembrance (zikr), gratitude (shukr), and excellence in worship (ibadat). 

When recited after every Salat, it attunes the heart to the will of Allah and strengthens one's relationship with Allah.


The Dua

Mu’adh (ra) reported: 

The Messenger of Allah (saw) took hold of my hand and said, 

O Mu’adh! By Allah I love you, so I advise you to never forget to recite after every Salat:

اللَّهُمَّ أَعِنِّي عَلَى ذِكْرِكَ، وَشُكْرِكَ، وَحُسْنِ عِبَادَتِكَ

Allahumma a’inni ala zikrika, wa shukrika, wa husni ‘ibadatika

O Allah, help me remember You, to be grateful to You, and to worship You in an excellent manner.
[Abu Dawud, Book 16 Hadith 1422]

>> Feeling anxious or uncertain? Place your full trust in Allah with the  Reliance on Allah  and find peace in knowing He is always enough for you.


Benefits

1. Deepens Daily Zikr (Remembrance)

Regularly reciting this dua helps maintain the remembrance of Allah throughout the day, thereby reducing inattention.

It helps develop a heart that sees every blessing as a gift from Allah, leading to a more contented and peaceful life.

[Surah Ibrahim 14:7]

3. Enhances Quality of Ibadat (Worship)
