مسنون دعائیں

یہ دعائیں نبی کریم ﷺ سے ثابت ہیں جب بارش موقع پر

اے اللہ! ہمارے ارد گرد برسا، ہم پر نہ برسا۔ اے اللہ! ٹیلوں، پہاڑوں، وادیوں کے نشیبی حصوں اور درخت اگنے کی جگہوں پر برسا۔
(صحیح بخاری: 1014)

O Allah! Let it rain around us and not upon us. O Allah, let it rain on the hills, mountains, valleys and where trees grow.

اللَّهُمَّ صَيِّبًا نَافِعًا
اے اللہ! اس بارش کو نفع بخش بنا دے۔
(صحیح بخاری: 1032)

O Allah! Make it a beneficial rain.

3- بارش کے شر سے حفاظت کی جامع دعا

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَهَا وَخَيْرَ مَا فِيهَا وَخَيْرَ مَا أُرْسِلَتْ بِهِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّهَا وَشَرِّ مَا فِيهَا وَشَرِّ مَا أُرْسِلَتْ بِهِ

اے اللہ! میں تجھ سے اس بارش کی بھلائی، اس میں جو خیر ہے اور جس مقصد کے لیے بھیجی گئی ہے اس کی بھلائی کا سوال کرتا ہوں، اور اس کے شر سے، اس میں جو شر ہے اور جس مقصد کے لیے بھیجی گئی ہے اس کے شر سے تیری پناہ مانگتا ہوں۔

O Allah! I ask You for its goodness, the goodness within it, and the goodness it was sent with, and I seek refuge in You from its evil, the evil within it, and the evil it was sent with.

4- عذاب سے حفاظت کی دعا

اللَّهُمَّ لَا تَقْتُلْنَا بِغَضَبِكَ وَلَا تُهْلِكْنَا بِعَذَابِكَ وَعَافِنَا قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ
اردو ترجمہ:
اے اللہ! ہمیں اپنے غضب سے قتل نہ کر اور اپنے عذاب سے ہلاک نہ کر اور اس سے پہلے ہمیں عافیت عطا فرما۔
(ترمذی: 3450)

O Allah! Do not kill us with Your anger, nor destroy us with Your punishment, and grant us safety before that.

ان دعاؤں کے ساتھ استغفار کثرت سے کریں، کیونکہ استغفار عذاب کو ٹالتا ہے۔
أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الْحَيَّ الْقَيُّومَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ
