Dua for Ending Majlis English Translation
O Allah, give us such fear that will serve as a barrier between us and acts of disobedience; and give us such obedience that will take us to Your Paradise; and such certainty as will make easy for us to bear in the calamities of this world. O Allah! let us enjoy our hearing, our sight and our strength as long as You keep us alive and keep our senses healthy and sound until the day We die, and make our revenge restricted to those who oppressed us, and support us against those who are hostile to us, and give us not trial in our religion; and let not worldly affairs be our principal concern, or the ultimate limit of our knowledge, and let not those dominate us who do not show mercy to us.
Abdullah bin Umar (RA) said, The Prophet (ﷺ) used to say this dua before leaving the Majlis and seldom left the Majlis without praying for his companions. This hadith is Hasan. [Tirmidhi (49-Kitabud Dawaat, 80-Baab) 5/ 492-493] In another narration, Tabi'i Nafi said, “Abdullah ibn Umar (RA) would not have stood from a meeting without saying these words for the people sitting in the meeting. [Nasai, As-Sunanul Kubra 6/106; Ibn al-Athir, Jamiul Usul 4/279] It is to be noted that the Prophet (ﷺ), the Companions of his Majlis, Abdullah Ibn Umar (RA) or the people of his Majlis did not raise their hands in supplication. We have seen that the Companions were very interested and diligent in narrating the Sunnah of the Prophet (ﷺ). They have described if raising hands during supplication is permissible in this particular case. That is why it is proved that the sunnah is not to be raised. Besides, we have seen that raising the hand during dua is a manners of dua. The Prophet (ﷺ) sometimes supplicated alone and sometimes with the Companions. In the light of this hadith, it is understood that at the end of the meeting, the speaker will say the words of the supplication and the people present will say Amin. If everyone sometimes raises their hands and supplicates, there is no chance of it being considered illegal or bidat. However, depending on the hadith of general virtue, it is bid'ah to consider it necessary to raise one's hand in the case of such duas or to consider it unlawful not to raise one's hand. Since the matter is open, in the light of hadith, the matter must be kept open.

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ زَحْرٍ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ، أَنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ، قَالَ قَلَّمَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُومُ مِنْ مَجْلِسٍ حَتَّى يَدْعُوَ بِهَؤُلاَءِ الْكَلِمَاتِ لأَصْحَابِهِ " اللَّهُمَّ اقْسِمْ لَنَا مِنْ خَشْيَتِكَ مَا يَحُولُ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ مَعَاصِيكَ وَمِنْ طَاعَتِكَ مَا تُبَلِّغُنَا بِهِ جَنَّتَكَ وَمِنَ الْيَقِينِ مَا تُهَوِّنُ بِهِ عَلَيْنَا مُصِيبَاتِ الدُّنْيَا وَمَتِّعْنَا بِأَسْمَاعِنَا وَأَبْصَارِنَا وَقُوَّتِنَا مَا أَحْيَيْتَنَا وَاجْعَلْهُ الْوَارِثَ مِنَّا وَاجْعَلْ ثَأْرَنَا عَلَى مَنْ ظَلَمَنَا وَانْصُرْنَا عَلَى مَنْ عَادَانَا وَلاَ تَجْعَلْ مُصِيبَتَنَا فِي دِينِنَا وَلاَ تَجْعَلِ الدُّنْيَا أَكْبَرَ هَمِّنَا وَلاَ مَبْلَغَ عِلْمِنَا وَلاَ تُسَلِّطْ عَلَيْنَا مَنْ لاَ يَرْحَمُنَا " . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ . وَقَدْ رَوَى بَعْضُهُمْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ .
Ibn `Umar said: “Rarely would the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) stand from a sitting until he supplicated with these words for his Companions: ‘O Allah, apportion for us, fear of You, that shall come between us and disobedience of You, and of obedience to You, which shall cause us to obtain Your Paradise, and of certainty, which shall make the afflictions of the world easy for us, and enjoyment of our hearing, and our seeing, and our strength as long as You keep us alive, and make it the inheritor of us. And let our vengeance be upon those who have wronged us, and aid us against those who show enmity towards us, and do not make our affliction in our religion, and do not make this world our greatest concern, nor the limit of our knowledge, and do not give power over us to those who will not have mercy on us. (Allāhumma-qsim lanā min khashyatika mā yaḥūlu, bainanā wa baina ma`āṣīka wa min ṭā`atika mā tuballighuna bihī jannatak, wa minal-yaqīni mā tuhawwinu bihī `alainā muṣībatid-dunyā, wa matti`na bi-asmā`inā wa abṣārina wa quwwatina mā aḥyaytanā, waj`alhul-wāritha minnā, waj`al tha’ranā `alā man ẓalamanā, wanṣurna `alā man `ādānā, wa lā taj`al muṣībatanā fī dīninā, wa lā taj`alid-dunyā akbara hamminā wa lā mablagha `ilminā, wa lā tusalliṭ `alainā man lā yarḥamunā).’” [Hasan (Albani). Tirmidhi: 3502]
