Supplication to recite during a storm

As per the schedule of Dawat-e-Islami’s weekly gathering, we will now memorise a supplication. This week, we will learn the supplication we can recite during a storm.

اَللّٰهُمَّ اِنِّی اَسْئَلُکَ خَیْرَھَا وَ خَیْرَ مَا فِیْھَا وَ خَیْرَ مَا  اُرْسِلَتْ بِہٖ  وَاَعُوْذُ بِکَ مِنْ شَرِّھَا  وَشَرِّ مَا فِیْھَا وَشَرِّ مَا اُرْسِلَتْ بِہٖ

O Allah! I ask You for the goodness of this wind, the goodness that is within it, and the goodness it has been sent with. And, I seek Your protection from its evil, the evil that is within it, and the evil it was sent with.^[1]

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب      صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Method of collective accountability (72 Pious Deeds)

The Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said, “Pondering ˹over the Hereafter˺ for a moment is better than 60 years of worship.”^[2]

Let’s make good intentions before filling in the Pious Deeds booklet:

1.To please Allah, I will hold myself to account through the Pious Deeds booklet and encourage others to do the same.

2.I will praise (i.e. thank) Allah Almighty for the pious deeds which I practised.

3.I will regret not acting upon the pious deeds I missed out on and will try to act on them in the future.

4.Allah Almighty forbid, if I have not acted on any pious deed which prevents a person from sinning, I will repent to Allah and make a firm intention to not sin in the future.

5.I will not reveal my good deeds without a need (for example, by saying that I acted on such and such or so and so amount of pious deeds).
