Do I Know What I Read Daily!? This Booklet contains meanings of commonly recited everyday Du'as and Azkar. We recite them almost daily and Insha-Allah will keep reciting them as long as we live. It is sad that many of us don't spare even a few moments to understand their meanings. (Please note that from towards the end of this booklet, meanings of almost all the words of each Du'as and Azkar are given for ease of memorization). There are numerous benefits of working on these basics. Some of them (Insha-Allah) You will feel a difference in your attention and concentration. You will have less disturbance and whispering from Shaitaan. As a result, your attachment with Allah will increase and as a whole in your life. Parents need to play the very important role of constantly encouraging and reminding their children to recite the Du'as at the appropriate time. Thus when the child is woken up in the morning, before he enters the toilet and after he leaves, before and after eating and at all other occasions, the parents should remind the child to recite the Du'a. In this way it will become a part of their lives and the purpose of teaching these Du'as will be achieved, Insha Allah. It will serve as an excellent starting step towards understanding Hadith and Qur'an. It will make you familiar with Arabic sentence structure and some Grammar indirectly. We make Du'a to Allah to accept this little booklet and make it a means of Hidaayah for the Ummah as well as Sadaqah-e-Jaariyah for all us. "O Allah grant me Your love and the love of those who love You, And the love of those things Which bring me closer to your love and make Your love more cherished by me than cold water (in immense heat)."

Upon this the Prophet ﷺ said, "Thirty" That is to say upon three words thirty rewards will be written down." (Tirmidhi) Commence Salam Hazrat Abu Umamah narrates Prophet ﷺ said; "...Whoever commences Salam is very close to Allah." (Tirmidhi) ا لس لا م ع ل ي لج م و ر ح م ة االله و ب ر ک بح ت ه "May the peace, mercy and the blessings of Allah be upon you." (Hisne-Haseen) -62 Hazrat Anas bin Malik narrates The Prophet ﷺ said to him; Son, when you enter your home Greet your people with the salutation of peace. It will be a source of blessing for you and for the members of your family. (Tirmidhi) Reply by saying و ع ل ي لج م الس لا م و ر ح م ة االله و ب ر ک بح ت ه "And peace, mercy and the blessings of Allah be upon you." (Hisne-Haseen) -63 Prophet ﷺ said; "To commence Salam is Sunnah and to reply is Waajib (Compulsory)." (Muslim) When someone conveys Salam to you on another's behalf, You reply by saying ع ل ي ك و ع ل ي ه الس لا م و ر ح م ة االله و ب ر ک بح ت ه "Peace, mercy and the blessings of Allah be upon you and him." (Hisne-Haseen) -64 Greeting a non-muslim -65 A believer may greet a non-muslim if he has a need from him; Otherwise it is prohibitively Makrooh (odious) Therefore, one should abstain from saying Salam to the non-muslim. It is not out of respect, thus permissible. Hazrat Anas bin Malik narrates Prophet ﷺ said; "If the people of the Scripture greet you, then you should say (in reply), Wa 'Alaykum (and on you)." (Bukhari) If non-muslim greets you, then there is nothing wrong in replying to them, but one should not say more than: Wa 'Alaykum. و ع ل ي لج م the meanings of words and on you or same to you. (Hisne-Haseen) 16

And through which, You guide us to our ultimate destination, In the acquiring of good, in this life and after death. Indeed, You have power over everything." (The great Scholar, Saint, Jurist and author, Imam ibn-faikihani says that there was once a pious man called Sheikh Moosa Zareer who was blind and had narrated his own story: I was in ﷺ a ship which was sinking, Due to a heavy storm. I lapsed into semi consciousness. Rasulullah appeared to me in this state and taught me the following Durood which he said should be recited a thousand times by the passengers of the ship. The passengers had barely recited the Durood 300 times and the ship was saved (miraculously). The other ship on the high seas sank, but this ship reached its destination safely and soundly. This miracle was a sufficient eye-opener for the members of the ship. It was by the Grace of Allah and Durood-e-Tunajjina that all were saved. ) Qunoot-e-Nazilah ا لل ه م اه د ني ف ي م ن ه د ي ت و ع اف ني ف ي م ن ع اف ي ت و ت و ل ني ف ي م ن ت و ل ي ت و ب ار ك لي ف ي م ا ا ع ط ي ت و ق ني ش ر م ا ق ض ي ت ف ا ن ك ت ق ض ي و لا ي ق ع ل ي ك ا ن ه لا ي ذ ل م ن و ال ي ت (و لا ي ع ز م ن ع اد ي ت ( ت ب ار ك ت ر ب ن ا و ت ع ال ي ت - -123 "O Lord! guide me among those whom You have guided, pardon me among those whom You have pardoned, turn to me in friendship among those on whom You have turned in friendship, and bless me in what You have bestowed, and protect me from the evil of what You have decreed.
