A Life-Changing Supplication for Dunya and Akhirah

February 19, 2025

Why This Dua is a Must-Know for Every Muslim

Some supplications focus on material wealth, while others emphasize the Hereafter. But what if you could ask for both in a single, short dua? The Quran gives us a perfect supplication for this:

رَبَّنَا آتِنَا فِي الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَفِي الآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ

“Rabbana atina fid-dunya hasanatan wa fil-akhirati hasanatan waqina ‘adhaban-nar”
(O our Lord, grant us good in this world and good in the Hereafter, and save us from the punishment of the Fire.) ( Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:201)

This dua is not just about wealth or comfort—it is about comprehensive goodness, including health, faith, peace of mind, and ultimate salvation.

What is Meant by “Goodness” in Both Worlds?

  • In this world: A righteous life, halal sustenance, peace, health, and success.
  • In the Hereafter: Eternal happiness, Allah’s mercy, and protection from Hellfire.

Practical Ways to Benefit from This Dua

  • Recite it daily after every salah.
  • Use it as a reminder to stay balanced in your worldly and spiritual pursuits.
  • Teach it to children so they grow up with a comprehensive understanding of success.
