A Silent Dua

[Abdul-Raheem]

A Silent Dua

All praises are for You Allah
How I know that You are there
For sinful though I surely am
Your displeasure I cannot bear

Never till this moment
Did I realize how much I've strayed
Never was I more conscious
Of the times I should have prayed

Ya Allah! Forgive me
Save me from the fire of Hell
Forgive me as You did my ancestors
From Jannah though they fell

Ya Allah! Protect me from all evil
For my soul is frail and weak
Let me not falter ever
For Jannah's the abode I seek

My actions once were guided -
By my faith which once was strong
Ya Allah! Please give me guidance
What happened? What went wrong?

Each footstep that I used to take
I took with You by my side
The Qur'an was my close companion -
My healing and my guide

Ya Allah! Please help me
For I don't understand and thus, I fear
What happened to all those days
When I never doubted You were near?


I sit here and I wonder Oh Allah,
Why did I fall so low?
What happened to my faith Allah?
Where did my Iman go?

How I yearn for those days Allah
For I know that the Day comes near
When each soul receives its just rewards
And Truth stands sparkling clear


In this short life of ours
So often does sin seem right
Falsehood seems to be the truth
Like day confused with night

Life is like a spider's web Allah
We get caught in its tricky snare
So often are we disillusioned
Time for prayer we cannot spare

We are sinful creatures Allah
So please forgive us when we wrong
For the road to Jannah is rocky
And the journey seems arduously long

Ya Allah! Our Creator,
Have mercy on us on Judgement Day
Please guide us with our steps in life
And let us not ever lose our way

All praises are for You Allah
I know that You are near
I know that You have read my heart
And my words I know You hear

Beautiful poem!!! May Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) accept our sincere repentance, perfect us in our Deen, and provide us with guidance, wisdom and knowledge.

He is the All-Hearing, Ever-Responsive, and He is the Ever-Living, the Eternal.



Our Lord! Let not our hearts deviate (from the truth) after You have guided us, and grant us mercy from You. Truly, You are the Bestower.
(Al Imran 3:8)

"Verily Allah does not change men’s condition unless they change their inner selves."
(Quran 13: 11)

"Remember Me, and I shall remember you; be grateful to Me, and deny Me not."
(Quran 2:152)
