WELCOME MESSAGE

By the grace of Almight God, we are able to publish the whole booklet of various Duaas and Ziyarats named Power of Prayers online.

I begin in the name of Allaah the Beneficent the Merciful.
All Praises belong to Allaah Sub’haanahoo Wa Ta’aala, The Most Compassionate, The Merciful, The Lord of The Universe and Master of the Day of Judgment. And we beg to Him to shower His choicest Blessings on the Holy Prophet Muhammad Mustafa S.A.W.W. and his pure Progeny A.S. (Ahlul Bait) who strived to the peak of perfection to restore and maintain the tenets of Islam.

The five times Namaaz is one of the pillars of Islam, if it is accepted by Allaah then other good deeds shall also be accepted otherwise the carelessly prayed Namaaz will we thrown back on our face rendering other good deeds void and useless. Allaah S.W.T. says in the Holy Qur’aan in Surah Maa’oon, verse: 4 and 5 that, “Woe to those who do pray but are heedless in their prayer.” Therefore, Namaaz is such a prayer that it should not be taken lightly. It is a prayer that takes us face to face in front of our Creator. We know that when the righteous persons were preparing for Namaaz their condition remarkably used to change due to the fear of God. So we should atleast try to observe the sanctity of Namaaz to our best possible extent so as to reap its favourable fruits in this world as well in the Hereafter.Likewise, Duaa (supplication) also plays an important role in our lives. Although it is not Wajib (obligatory) but it is highly emphasized to recite Duaas at every time, especially after Namaaz. However, Duaa is also a prayer. Namaaz without Duaa is same as to a house without furniture. Duaa is a channel to express oneself to Allaah S.W.T. We have been given this weapon of Duaa so as to beseech, beg, and complain to our Merciful Lord concerning our needs and wishes, and seek protection from troubles and problems through the medium of Duaa.

And as for the Duaa to be effective it has the etiquettes to be followed faithfully. Duaa is like an application for obtaining something, so if it manifests carelessness it may never be responded. The similarity to it is like a person in need going to the door of a rich person, if he begs with sincere humility there are more chances of getting what he wants, but if he begs carelessly or obstinately then the doors shall be closed on his face.

To make our Duaa to be effective and fruitful we should foremostly realize the Majesty of Almighty Allaah S.W.T. In our very hearts we should have His fear as well as hope. Cause of fear for our shortcomings and faults and sins, and as for the hope it should be for his never ending Mercy and love towards His creation. The Duaa of one who expects favours from other then Allaah is quite out of place. Therefore it is very essential to keep our thoughts clear of begging and expecting from others then Allaah.

The other factor to be taken in consideration for the effectiveness of a Duaa is to be clean of any worldly thoughts, selfish motives, pride, jealousy, vengeance and all other bad elements.Furthermore, one of the etiquettes of beseeching Allaah is that before requesting Allaah to fulfill our own needs we should first recite Salawaat, praise Allaah S.W.T., thank Him for His previous bounties and favours, repent sincerely for our sins, then pray and plead for others, this is a way to express that we are not selfish or self-centered, and finally pray for ourselves. If the proper way is followed then there should not be any reason to despair.

Allaah S.W.T says in His Holy Book that whenever any one calls Him He answers, and that He is not far away from His creatures, He is nearer to us than the jugular vein in our neck. So it is only a question of pure intention and sincerity of our hearts to make our Duaa reach His kind attention.

This is the forerunner in our prayers, if it is missed than one should be ready to face silence in response to his/her Duaa. This is a basic requirement. Pure intention and sincerity should be maintained upto the end. One more thing is worth noting down, and it is that if you are not responded instantly do not despair, do not lose hope from The Merciful Allaah, keep on begging, and imploring, and supplicating, and beseeching, keep the door knocking, it will unlock one day, InshaaAllaah., and you will notice the Power of Prayers.

Moreover, Allaah S.W.T. is our Kind, Merciful and Powerful Creator Who knows quite well that which is beneficial and useful to us, so He gives according to His appropriate and just measure. If it was according to our wishes and cravings then imagine the similarity of ultimate result of a toddler begging for a loaded gun.

Although some Duaas and A’amaal will apparently be seen very
attractive, and in fact they surely are so, but side by side, one should not under-estimate the values of pre-requisites. Only Allaah S.W.T. is the sole proprietor of whatever is in the earths and heavens, and He bestows according to His own wish. Are there not well-educated persons who are fed on fixed salaries? And are there not non-educated persons who control a sizeable part of economy? There are numerous such facts. So we must have a staunch belief in Allaah, and our sole relying and trust should be on Him only, that is Tawaqqul.

Side by side with Duaa it is our duty to work hard for lawful earning and keep away from illegal ways and not to be deeply engrossed in the glitters of this temporary world. It is upto Him that when, what, where and how much to bestow. May Allaah S.W.T. help and guide us achieve our lawful needs of both the worlds through sincere prayers and good deeds, in accordance to His pleasure only. Aameen.

This is my 4TH newly revised edition of
POWER OF PRAYERS with some corrections, additionals and translations at my most achievable ability; although the translation is not done word to word, it is only to percieve the gist of what we recite. I very much hope this will be useful to my faithful sisters and brothers-in-Faith…….Inshaa’Allaah.

As no human is non-mistak-able, so is the case with this humble compiler, therefore you are most welcome to point out to me any mistake, lapse, error or fault after you have absolved me broad-heartedly.

Finally, I humbly pray to Allaah S.W.T. for the best rewards to shower on my daughters and sons - Muhammad, Aqeel, and SadiqAli who helped me physically and morally to accomplish this work, and also those who in one way or the other helped me in this devoted cause.

As there are various ways to reach to the peak of perfection one has to weigh himself/herself in the whole circumference of life and notice minutely where s/he is heading to. This small book deals mainly on the ethical point of view, e.g. due respect to Masjid, the value of Salawaat,depenfdence on Allaah S.W.T., displeasing habit of back-biting, accusation, arrogance, and magic, about the sins and their intensity, about the ettiquets of Prayers, some essential Duaas, thanks-giving, etc. etc.

This is not atall in any way addressed to all but only to those who are concerned to it in one way or the other, certainly the writer being on the foremost front. Therefore I plead to everyone not to take the short-comings mentioned therein on oneself.

May the Almighty Allaah S.W.T. guide us all on the right path. Aameen

This small book is mainly intended to let us realise what does FASTING mean, that is to say that merely abstaining from food and drink can’t be a proper fast as intended by Almighty Allaah S.W.T. unless some other rules and ragulations are followed faithfully. Moreover there are various Duaas and A’amaal to be performed in the Holy Month of Ramadhaan that can benefit us in this world and in the Hereafter.

May Allaah S.W.T. give us Tawfeeq to follow properly His Deen and its Laws. Aameen
