Hadith about the Dua

Arabic Text

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ جَاءَ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَأَلُوهُ إِنَّا نَجِدُ فِي أَنْفُسِنَا مَا يَتَعَاظَمُ أَحَدُنَا أَنْ يَتَكَلَّمَ بِهِ قَالَ ‏"‏ وَقَدْ وَجَدْتُمُوهُ ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالُوا نَعَمْ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ ذَاكَ صَرِيحُ الإِيمَانِ ‏"‏‏.‏

Translation

Abu Huraira reported: Some people from among the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came to him and said: "We find in ourselves thoughts that are too terrible to speak of." He said: "Do you really find it?" They said: "Yes." He said: "That is clear faith."

Frequently Asked Questions

Doubts don’t always mean you have weak faith. Sometimes, they just come up as you learn more or go through changes in life. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said that when people get confused or worried, they should ask Allah for help and try to learn more. This can actually make your iman stronger if you keep turning back to Allah and keep making dua for guidance.
