Dua for Gratitude and Continuing Good Deeds
The prayer of Prophet Sulaiman (Solomon) AS upon recognizing Allah’s immense favors, pleading for divine inspiration to stay grateful and act righteously.
رَبِّ أَوْزِعْنِي أَنْ أَشْكُرَ نِعْمَتَكَ الَّتِي أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيَّ وَعَلَىٰ وَالِدَيَّ وَأَنْ أَعْمَلَ صَالِحًا تَرْضَاهُ وَأَدْخِلْنِي بِرَحْمَتِكَ فِي عِبَادِكَ الصَّالِحِينَ
Rabbi awzi‘nī an ashkura ni‘mataka-llatī an‘amta ‘alayya wa-‘alā wālidayya wa-an a‘mala ṣāliḥan tarḍāhu wa-adkhilnī bi-raḥmatika fī ‘ibādika l-ṣāliḥīn
"Awzi‘nī" (أَوْزِعْنِي) is a pleading to restrain one’s baser desires and infuse the soul with continuous alertness of gratitude. Notice that entry into Paradise is explicitly attributed to divine Rahmah (mercy), not one’s deeds alone.
Found in both Surah An-Naml (27:19) and Surah Al-Ahqaf (46:15) as the ideal prayer when reaching maturity and reflecting upon life achievements.
Dua for Acceptance of Deeds (Ibrahim and Ismail AS)
Supplicated by Prophets Ibrahim and Ismail (peace be upon them) while elevating the sacred foundations of the Ka‘bah in Makkah.
رَبَّنَا تَقَبَّلْ مِنَّا إِنَّكَ أَنتَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ
Rabbanā taqabbal minnā innaka anta l-Samī‘u l-‘Alīm
Despite executing the greatest architectural and spiritual task on earth by direct divine decree, Ibrahim (AS) did not display self-satisfaction. Instead, he trembled with humility, begging for acceptance.
Classical scholar Wuhaib ibn al-Ward wept when reciting this verse, stating: "O Friend of the Most Merciful! You built the House of the Rahman, yet you feared it would not be accepted!" Essential after every prayer and good deed.
