I don’t advocate that Laylat al-Qadr is only on the 27th night, but I’ve been wanting to post this du’a I wrote from last year and only found the chance now. Say ‘ameen’ after reading 🙂

On this beautiful night, I ask Allah to accept you all amongst His righteous slaves. May He accept every prayer of yours, every fast, every prostration, every good word and deed, every tear you’ve shed for Him, every good thought you’ve had of Him, every helping hand you’ve lent for Him and every good intention you’ve made for Him. May He accept you and may He act for you as you’ve acted for Him.

O Allah, grant us salvation from the Hellfire and grant us entry into Paradise. Envelope us in Your Mercy and protect us from every evil. Guide us to the good, and guide us away from all that misleads us or takes us away from You. Honour us in this life and the Next and revive our hearts with strength of Iman. Help us uphold the Sunnah of Your Messenger and unite us with him and his companions on that grand Day.

O Allah, we ask You for Your Love and the love of those whom You love and the love of those deeds which You love. Grant us sincerity in words and deeds and let us live fulfilling lives which please You and please us. Make the last of our deeds the best of our deeds and make the best of our days the Day we meet You.

O Allah, make the Qur’an our companion in this life, make it our comforting friend in the grave and make it our intercessor and light on the Sirat and in the Hereafter. Let it be a hujjah (proof) for us and never against us. Let the nights be a witness for us and not against us. Let Your masajid be a witness for us and not against us. Make our every surrounding a witness for us and never against us, and make our bodies which You have blessed for us, a witness for us and never against us.

O Allah, send Your help to every weak and oppressed one, assist them in the surroundings of al-Aqsa, in Syria, Egypt, and Burma, and every land in which Your believers are suffering. Let their blood not be in vain ya Kareem.

May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon our Messenger, teacher and guide, sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam, and upon his pure family and righteous companions ajma’een. Ameen
