Du’as from the Qur’an for seeking and mastering knowledge: These ayats from the Qur’an are from: (i) Surah Taha (Chapter 20), verses 25-28, (excerpted) ﺭﺏ ﺍﺷﺮﺡ ﻟﻲ ﺻﺪﺭﻱ ﻭﻳﺴﺮ ﻟﻲ ﺃﻣﺮﻱ ﻭﺍﺣﻠﻞ ﻋﻘﺪﺓ ﻣﻦ ﻟﺴﺎﻧﻲ ﻳﻔﻘﻬﻮﺍ ﻗﻮﻟﻲ Rabbishrah lee sadree Wayassir lee amree Wahlul ‘uqdatan min lisanee Yafqahoo qawlee “O my Sustainer! Open up my heart and make my task easy for me, and loosen the knot from my tongue so that they might fully understand my speech.” (ii) Surah Taha (Chapter 20), verse:114 (excerpted) ﺭﺏ ﺯﺩﻧﻲ ﻋﻠﻤﺎ Rabbi zidnee ‘ilman “O my Lord, increase me in knowledge!” (iii) Surah Ash-Shu’ara (Chapter 26), verses:83-85. ﺭﺏ ﻫﺐ ﻟﻲ ﺣﻜﻤﺎ ﻭﺃﻟﺤﻘﻨﻲ ﺑﺎﻟﺼﺎﻟﺤﻴﻦ ﻭﺍﺟﻌﻞ ﻟﻲ ﻟﺴﺎﻥ ﺻﺪﻕ ﻓﻲ ﺍﻟﺂﺧﺮﻳﻦ )26 ﻭﺍﺟﻌﻠﻨﻲ ﻣﻦ ﻭﺭﺛﺔ ﺟﻨﺔ ﺍﻟﻨﻌﻴﻢ Rabbi hab lee hukman waalhiqnee bialssaliheena Waj’al lee lisana sidqin fee alakhireena Waj’alnee min warathati jannati anna’eem “My Lord, grant me wisdom, join me with the righteous; give me a good name among later generations,; make me one of those given the Garden of Bliss.” The above three du’as from the Qur’aan which are helpful in seeking knowledge, are recited very beautifully in the following video by Sheikh Mishary Rashid Al-afasy. 2. The Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) used to say: “O Allah, I seek refuge in you from four things: Knowledge which does not profit, a heart which is not submissive, a soul which has an insatiable appetite, and a supplication which is not heard.“ Source: Narrated Abu Hurayrah in Sunan Abu Dawud, hadith 614. 3. When the Prophet, peace be upon him, woke he would say, “There is no god but You, glory be to You. O Allah, I seek Your forgiveness of my sins, and ask for Your mercy. O Allah, increase me in knowledge, and let not my heart deviate after You have guided me on the right path. Grant me mercy from You, for You are the Grantor of bounties without measure.” Source: Fiqh-us-Sunnah, volume 1, # 121 4. Narrated Zayd ibn Arqam: I am not going to say anything but only that which Allah’s Apostle (peace be upon him) used to say. He used to supplicate: “O Allah, I seek refuge in You from incapacity, from sloth, from cowardice, from miserliness, decrepitude and from torment of the grave. O Allah, grant my soul the sense of righteousness and purify it, for You are the Best Purifier thereof. You are the Protecting friend thereof, and Guardian thereof. O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the knowledge which does not benefit, from the heart that does not entertain the fear (of Allah), from the soul that does not feel contented and the supplication that is not responded.” Source: Sahih Muslim, hadith 1260. 5.
