Dhikr & Du'a · Core remembrance

The supplications Allah taught in His Book

These are not tied to a time. Reach for them in sujood, after prayer, in the last third of the night, or whenever your heart needs words. Many begin with 'Rabbana' (Our Lord) or 'Rabbi' (My Lord), the gentle, intimate way the Qur'an teaches us to open.

Each card shows the supplication from its verse, with the meaning and the reference. The recitation plays the full ayah. Learn a few by heart; they will come to you exactly when you need them.

    Qur'anAt-Tahrim 66:8

Every supplication is grounded via quran.ai: Arabic in Uthmani script (ar-uthmani-minimal) and the Saheeh International translation. The recitable supplication shown on each card is selected from its verse (the supplication clause to the end of the ayah); this is a verified substring of the fetched ayah, never a rewrite, and the recitation audio (Mishary Rashid Alafasy, everyayah.com) plays the full ayah. With thanks to lifewithallah.com; framing is Buruja's own. FOR SCHOLAR REVIEW: confirm each verse selection before publication.
