DUAS FOR THREE ASHRA OF RAMADAN

According to Hadith narrated by Salman Farsi (R.A.), who said that Prophet (S.A.W.) said: 

“Ramadan is a month whose beginning is mercy, its middle is forgiveness and its end is ransom from the Fire”.

(Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah, Hadith No. 1887)

 

This is a Daaif (weak) hadith and many scholars do not recognize or recommend this Hadith due to its grade (weak Hadith). However, there are many scholars who still mention this Hadith in their sermons and speeches to motivate Muslims to ask Supplications during this month. 

 

There are no specific Supplications mentioned in any Hadith for these three ashras of Ramadan, however, many scholars have suggested some supplications for these Three Ashras of Ramadan:

 

Dua for First 10 Days of Ramadan

 

First Ashra Dua or Ramadan First Ashra Dua (during first 10 days of Ramadan), also known as ‘Pehle Ashray ki Dua’ in Urdu language, is a Dua for the first 10 days of Ramadan and many Muslims around the world recite this 1st ashra Dua during the entire first 10 days of Ramadan.

يَا حَيُّ يَا قَيُّومُ بِرَحْمَتِكَ أَسْتَغيثُ

Oh Everliving, The Everlasting, I seek Your help through Your mercy.

 Ramadan first Ashra Dua is self-explanatory and we are asking for Allah’s mercy though this Supplication.

Second Ashra Dua

2nd Ashra Dua, also known as ‘Dusre Ashraki Dua’ in Urdu language, is a Supplication which many Muslims recite during the middle 10 days of Ramadan.

اَسْتَغْفِرُ اللہَ رَبِّی مِنْ کُلِّ زَنْبٍ وَّ اَتُوْبُ اِلَیْہِ

I seek forgiveness from Allah for all my sins and turn to Him.

2nd Ashra Dua or ‘Dusre Ashra ki Dua’ is self-explanatory as we are asking for Allah’s forgiveness though this Supplication.

Dua for Last 10 days of Ramadan

Third Ashra Dua or Dua for last 10 days of Ramadan, also known as ‘Teesra Ashra ki Dua’ is a Dua for last 10 days of Ramadan and many Muslims around the world recite this during last 10 days of Ramadan. 

 

اَللَّهُمَّ أَجِرْنِي مِنَ النَّارِ

O Allah, save me from the fire (Jahannam).

اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّكَرِيمٌ تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي

O Allah, indeed You are Pardoning, [Generous,] You love pardon, so pardon me
