As the final days of Ramadan approach, Muslims all around the world excitedly participate in greater acts of devotion and supplication, seeking closer proximity to Allah and abundant benefits.
Heartfelt prayers and supplications are among the most treasured traditions throughout this hallowed time.
Here are three important prayers to recite during the final days of Ramadan, including key supplications such as “Allahumma innaka afuwun tuhibbu al-afwa fa’fu anni” (O Allah, indeed You are forgiving and love forgiveness, so forgive me) and others, to guide believers on their journey of spiritual enrichment and divine connection.
Afiyah (Dua for Well-being and Protection)
Muslims frequently pray for health and protection from harm. The invocation “Allahumma inni a’udhu bika min ‘adhabi jahannam, wa min ‘adhabil-qabr, wa min fitnatil-mahya wal-mamat, wa min fitnatil-masihid-dajjal” (O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the punishment of Hell, the torment of the grave, the trials of life and death, and the mischief of the Anti-Christ) is a comprehensive supplication for protection from various trials and tribulations.
Rahmah (Prayer for Mercy and Blessing)
During the final days of Ramadan, beseech Allah for mercy and blessings on yourself and your loved ones. One effective prayer for mercy is: “Allahumma innaka afuwun tuhibbu al-afwa fa’fu anna” (O Allah, You are forgiving and love forgiveness, so forgive us).
This dua emphasizes Allah’s forgiveness and affection for pardoning His servants. As you recite this petition, express your trust in Allah’s mercy and seek His favor and benefits in this life and the next.
Dua al-Karb (Relief from Hardship)
