“Ask Allah for everything, even if it is only a shoelace, because if Allah does not make it easy, then it will not be possible.

Aisha bint Abu Bakr (Wife of Prophet Muhammad)

“Are you ready for what you’re supplicating for? Sometimes we think we are, but Allah knows we are not so he holds it back until we are.

Abdulbary Yahya

“I have found that when I’m down, of all the athkar and supplications out there, these words from the duaa of Ta’if, have the most power over my heart: “I seek refuge in the light of Your Face by which all darkness is dispelled and every matter of this world and the next is set right.

Yasmin Mogahed

“I was told of a man from the Children of Israel who had a need that he wanted fulfilled by Allah. So, he engaged in constant worship and then asked Allah for his need.

When he did not see that his need was fulfilled, he spent the night blaming himself, saying: “O self! What is wrong with you that is preventing your need from being fulfilled?”

And he spent the night sad and holding himself to account, saying: “By Allah, the problem is not with my Lord. Rather, the problem is with myself,” and he remained in such a state of holding himself responsible until his need was finally taken care of.

Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah

“It is a fortunate person who (on the Day of Judgement) finds in their record many prayers for God's forgiveness.

Aisha bint Abu Bakr (Wife of Prophet Muhammad)

“Dua is like a weapon, and a weapon is only as good as the person who is using it; it is not merely the matter of how sharp it is. If the weapon is perfect and free of faults, and the arm of the person using it is strong, and there is nothing stopping him, then he can lay waste the enemy. But if any of these three features is lacking, then the effect will be lacking accordingly.

Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah

“Don’t ever leave off praying nor allow what [bad deeds] you commit to prevent you from it, for indeed God answered the prayer of Satan, even though he is the most evil of creation [when he prayed ] “Grant me respite until the Day in which they will be resurrected.’ He said, ‘Indeed you are from those who are granted respite.’ (The Quran, verses 7:14-15)

Sufyan bin 'Uyainah

“Supplicate to Allah in your times of ease and He will answer your supplication in your times of difficulty.

Abu ad-Darda al-Ansari

“If you ask God for Paradise, ask Him for al-Firadaws, for it is at the central heights of Paradise, and above it lies the Throne of the Most Gracious.

Prophet Muhammad ﷺ

“Many prayers are declined because of the rank odor of a corrupt heart rising through the beautiful words. Let the words be wrong, but the meaning right. That flawed utterance is dearer to God.

Rumi

“Never underestimate the power of prayer! Constant prayer, with full conviction, without loss of hope no matter how prolonged it may be, really does create miracles!

What seems “impossible” for us is simple for the Almighty. Many have already seen this in their lives!

We are also taught to maintain closeness to the Almighty at times of ease & then during hardship He has promised to come to our aid.

Let us not be from those who only worship when they are suffering or when their lives are chaotic.

Mufti Ismail Menk

“A silent dua is seventy times better than a loud one.

Ibn Abbas

“The dunya (that great job, certain type of spouse, having a child, school, career, etc) is our end and *Allah* is the means that we use to get there. We use that means, through making du`a’, to achieve our end (whatever it is that we’re making du`a’ for), and then get disappointed when our means (Allah) didn’t come through for us. We throw our hands up in the air and say our du`a’ are not being answered. Our means just isn’t coming through for us!

But, Allah isn’t a means. He is the end. The ultimate objective of even du`a’ itself is to build our connection to Allah. Through du`a’ we become closer to Him.

Yasmin Mogahed

“Sometimes we make duaa for a door of dunya. When it doesn’t open, we cry. Not realizing that Allah has instead opened a door of jennah for us.

Yasmin Mogahed

“We try to use God like a 'genie in a bottle'. We make a wish and throw away the bottle when it doesn't come true.

Yasmin Mogahed

“To the people of Gaza: Know that Allah might delay answering the dua of the oppressed, but He never ignores; persevere, you are in our duas.

Yasir Qadhi

“The more you ask others, the more despised you become; the more you ask Allah, the more beloved you become.

Yasir Qadhi

“If only we prayed to Allah at times of ease with the same humility and earnestness we show Him at times of distress!

Yasir Qadhi

“Whoever does not find happiness in the dhikr of Allah, prayer, and reciting the Quran, will not find it anywhere else.

al-Hasan al-Basri

“I used to pray for so many fancy things. Now I just ask to be near You.

Yasmin Mogahed
