680. The greatest Names of Allah dua (Dua of Yunus)
لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ سُبْحَانَكَ إِنِّي كُنْتُ مِنَ الظَّالِمِيْنَ
Dua of Yunus English Transliteration
Laa 'ilaaha 'illaa 'Anta sub’haanaka 'innee kuntu minadh-dhaalimeen
Dua of Yunus English Translation
There is none worthy of worship but You, glory is to You. Surely, I was among the wrongdoers.
Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas (RA) said, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “The supplication of Dhun-Nun (Prophet Yunus As) when he supplicated, while in the belly of the whale was: (The Dua is mentioned above)’ So indeed, no Muslim man supplicates with it for anything, ever, except Allah responds to him.”
Hadith about the Dua
Arabic Text
عَنْ سَعْدٍ قَالَ دَعْوَةُ ذِي النُّونِ إِذْ دَعَا وَهُوَ فِي بَطْنِ الْحُوتِ " لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ سُبْحَانَكَ إِنِّي كُنْتُ مِنَ الظَّالِمِينَ " فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَدْعُ بِهَا رَجُلٌ مُسْلِمٌ فِي شَيْءٍ قَطُّ إِلاَّ اسْتَجَابَ اللَّهُ لَهُ .
Sa’d reported: The supplication of Dhu al-Nun (Prophet Yunus) when he supplicated while he was in the belly of the fish was, “There is none worthy of worship except You, glory is to You. Indeed, I have been of the wrongdoers.” No Muslim ever supplicates with it for anything, except that Allah will answer him.
