The Ruling on the Dawn Awakening Supplications Circulating on Social Media
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: A supplication has spread on social media programs that is said to wake one up for the Fajr prayer: “O Allah, do not let me be heedless of Your majesty, do not let me forget Your remembrance, and do not make me among the wrongdoers.” What is the ruling on this?
Answer:
One who answers: A supplication that is not established in the Shari'ah is a bid'ah (religious innovation). There is no evidence for this. However, when going to sleep, one should recite Ayat al-Kursi, Surah al-Ikhlas, and the two Mu'awwidhat (chapters of seeking refuge), seek refuge in Allah from Shaytan, sleep on one's right side, and intend to get up for the Fajr prayer. If one does these things, Allah will guide him and wake him up. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
