✨ Islamic Duas for Prophets’ Duas — Arabic, Transliteration & Meaning
Below are 6 supplications for Prophets’ Duas, presented with vowelized Arabic script, easy-to-read Latin transliteration, English translation, and explicit source & grading references.
My Lord, grant me (a child) from among the righteous.
Reported Context & Reflection: Ibrāhīm makes this request after leaving his people, his house and his land — an old man without a child. He does not ask for “a child” but for one “from among the righteous”. The answer in the next verse is Ismāʿīl.
Rabbish-rah li sadri wa yassir li amri wahlul uqdatan min lisani yafqahu qawli
My Lord, expand my chest for me, ease my task for me, and untie the knot from my tongue, so that they may understand my speech.
Reported Context & Reflection: Mūsā says these four sentences at the moment he is commanded to stand alone before the most powerful man of his age — the very court he had fled as a fugitive. He asks first for inner room, and only then for outward ease.
Rabbana taqabbal minna, innaka antas-Sami’ul-Alim. Rabbana waj’alna muslimayni lak, wa min dhurriyyatina ummatan muslimatan lak
Our Lord, accept this from us. You are indeed the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing. Our Lord, make us both submissive to You, and from our offspring a community submissive to You.
Reported Context & Reflection: They say it while raising the walls — mid-work, stones in their hands. And the request is not that the building stand, but that it be accepted. Two prophets erecting a house of God are not sure it is enough.
Rabbi hab li hukman wa alhiqni bis-salihin, waj’al li lisana sidqin fil-akhirin, waj’alni min warathati jannatin-na’im
My Lord, grant me judgement and join me with the righteous. And grant me a tongue of truth among later generations. And make me one of the inheritors of the Garden of Bliss.
Reported Context & Reflection: Ibrāhīm asks for “a tongue of truth among later generations” — that people after him speak well of him. Everyone who says in prayer today “as You blessed Ibrāhīm” is the answer to that request, four thousand years later.
Rabbi anzilni munzalan mubarakan wa anta khayrul-munzilin
My Lord, let me land at a blessed landing place. You are the best of those who bring to land.
Reported Context & Reflection: The supplication for every new place — a home, a city, a country. Nūḥ says it as he sets foot on land after the flood: the last thing asked for is not rescue, but that the place afterwards be blessed.
My Lord, do not leave me alone, and You are the best of inheritors.
Reported Context & Reflection: The same request as in 3:38, but shorter and more exposed. And then he immediately adds: “and You are the best of inheritors” — withdrawing his own request even as he makes it. If no one comes after me, You remain.
