772. Dua to seek blessings, honor and satisfaction from Allah
Narrated Anas Ibn Malik (RA): The Prophet (ﷺ) used to recite these supplications:
اَللَّهُمَّ زِدْنَا وَلَا تَنْقُصْنَا وَأَكْرِمْنَا وَلَا تُهِنَّا وَأَعْطِنَا وَلَا تَحْرِمْنَا وَآثِرْنَا وَلَا تُؤْثِرْ عَلَيْنَا وَأَرْضِنَا وَارْضَ عَنَّا
Allaahumma zidnaa wa laa tanqusnaa wa akrimnaa walaa tuhinnaa wa a'tinaa wa laa ta’hrimnaa wa a-thirnaa walaa tu'thir alaynaa wa ardinaa war-da ‘annaa
O Allah! Increase us [in Your Blessings and rewards] and do not decrease us, Honour us and do not humiliate us, give us [from Your Gifts] and do not deprive us, be in Favour of us and not against us, and make us satisfied and be satisfied with us.
Then Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Allah sent down such ten ayahs upon me, whomsoever implicate these ayahs he will enter paradise.” Then he recited those ayahs:
قَدْ أَفْلَحَ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ ﴿١﴾ الَّذِينَ هُمْ فِي صَلَاتِهِمْ خَاشِعُونَ ﴿٢﴾ وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ عَنِ اللَّغْوِ مُعْرِضُونَ ﴿٣﴾ وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ لِلزَّكَاةِ فَاعِلُونَ ﴿٤﴾ وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ لِفُرُوجِهِمْ حَافِظُونَ ﴿٥﴾ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ أَزْوَاجِهِمْ أَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُهُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ غَيْرُ مَلُومِينَ ﴿٦﴾ فَمَنِ ابْتَغَىٰ وَرَاءَ ذَٰلِكَ فَأُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْعَادُونَ ﴿٧﴾ وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ لِأَمَانَاتِهِمْ وَعَهْدِهِمْ رَاعُونَ ﴿٨﴾ وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ عَلَىٰ صَلَوَاتِهِمْ يُحَافِظُونَ ﴿٩﴾ أُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْوَارِثُونَ ﴿١٠﴾
(1) Certainly will the believers have succeeded: (2) They who are during their prayer humbly submissive (3) And they who turn away from ill speech (4) And they who are observant of zakah (5) And they who guard their private parts (6) Except from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they will not be blamed - (7) But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors - (8) And they who are to their trusts and their promises attentive (9) And they who carefully maintain their prayers - (10) Those are the inheritors. (Sura Muminun 23:1-10)
