Dua for Vigilance (Muraqaba)

Whilst studying Imam alHaddad’s The Book of Assistance book, our teacher told us of the dua for vigilance (Muraqaba), which Shaykh Sahl bin Abdullah al-Tustari (may Allah have mercy upon him) was reminded to read from his uncle (may Allah be pleased with him). The dua is as follows:

Allahu ma’ee, Allahu shahidee, Allahu hadiree, Allahu nazhiree, Allahu qareebun minnee.

Allah is with me, Allah is witnessing me, I am in Allah’s presense, Allah’s gaze is on me, Allah is near to me.

It’s advised to say the above dua when laying down, 3-7 times daily, without moving the tongue but saying it from ones heart.

And with Allah is Enabling Grace.

Dear Dowra 2008 Students…

Asalaam alaykum wa rahmatullah

I would love to hear from you. Your experience of Tarim? What gems you have learnt that will no doubt benefit this pauper? What was the most difficult part of the journey?

Please feel free to comment below as sharing is caring, and learning is vast. Oh by the way, this student doesn’t mind you referencing your blog article on the learning attained (of that which you were granted permission to disseminate).

Take care, keep smiling, and wasalaam alaykum wa rahmatullah
