Quranic Dua In Surah Al fatiha “last two Ayahs”:
At the heart of every prayer lies this profound supplication for the greatest blessing of all: divine guidance. In these final verses, we constantly ask Allah to lead us on the Straight Path and protect us from going astray.
اهْدِنَا الصِّرَاطَ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ (6) صِرَاطَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ غَيْرِ الْمَغْضُوبِ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا الضَّالِّينَ (7)
Translation:
“Guide us along the Straight Path, the Path of those You have blessed—not those You are displeased with, or those who are astray.”
This dua is memorized by almost all Muslims since it is repeated in the five prayers every day. This shows the importance of this dua and that we need guidance more in simple daily situations or major decisions.

128 | رَبَّنَا وَاجْعَلْنَا مُسْلِمَيْنِ لَكَ وَمِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِنَا أُمَّةً مُسْلِمَةً لَكَ وَأَرِنَا مَنَاسِكَنَا وَتُبْ عَلَيْنَا إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيمُ | Our Lord! Raise from among them a messenger who will recite to them Your revelations, teach them the Book and wisdom, and purify them. Indeed, You ˹alone˺ are the Almighty, All-Wise. |
201 | رَبَّنَا آتِنَا فِي الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَفِي الْآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ | “Our Lord! Grant us the good of this world and the Hereafter, and protect us from the torment of the Fire.” |
250 | رَبَّنَا أَفْرِغْ عَلَيْنَا صَبْرًا وَثَبِّتْ أَقْدَامَنَا وَانْصُرْنَا عَلَى الْقَوْمِ الْكَافِرِينَ | “Our Lord! Shower us with perseverance, make our steps firm, and give us victory over the disbelieving people.” |
285 | سَمِعْنَا وَأَطَعْنَا غُفْرَانَكَ رَبَّنَا وَإِلَيْكَ الْمَصِيرُ | And they say, “We hear and obey. ˹We seek˺ Your forgiveness, our Lord! And to You ˹alone˺ is the final return.” |
286 | رَبَّنَا لَا تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِنْ نَسِينَا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنَا رَبَّنَا وَلَا تَحْمِلْ عَلَيْنَا إِصْرًا كَمَا حَمَلْتَهُ عَلَى الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِنَا رَبَّنَا وَلَا تُحَمِّلْنَا مَا لَا طَاقَةَ لَنَا بِهِ وَاعْفُ عَنَّا وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَارْحَمْنَا أَنْتَ مَوْلَانَا فَانْصُرْنَا عَلَى الْقَوْمِ الْكَافِرِينَ | “Our Lord! Do not punish us if we forget or make a mistake. Our Lord! Do not place a burden on us like the one you placed on those before us. Our Lord! Do not burden us with what we cannot bear. Pardon us, forgive us, and have mercy on us. You are our ˹only˺ Guardian. So grant us victory over the disbelieving people.” |
All these duas are beautiful, and if possible, try to memorize them. I want to focus on the third duaa of the former table. This short and beautiful Quranic dua gathers both this world and the Hereafter.
Allah taught us this dua by comparing two types of people. The first is only Careful about worldly matters, and the second never ignores the Hereafter. This shows the centrality of interest in the afterlife in the Muslim faith.

Quranic Dua In Surah Al Mumenon:
This Surah contains four important duas. One of them indicates the danger of Shaytan, since Allah told us to seek refuge from them. You can memorize these short duas in the following table.
Ayah | Duaa | Translation: |
29 | رَبِّ أَنْزِلْنِي مُنْزَلًا مُبَارَكًا وَأَنْتَ خَيْرُ الْمُنْزِلِينَ | And say, “My Lord, let me land at a blessed landing place, and You are the best to accommodate [us]. |
97-98 | رَبِّ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ هَمَزَاتِ الشَّيَاطِينِ (97) وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ رَبِّ أَنْ يَحْضُرُونِ (98) | And say, “My Lord, I seek refuge in You from the incitements of the devils, and I seek refuge in You, my Lord, lest they be present with me. |
109 | رَبَّنَا آمَنَّا فَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَارْحَمْنَا وَأَنْتَ خَيْرُ الرَّاحِمِينَ | Indeed, there was a party of My servants who said, “Our Lord, we have believed, so forgive us and have mercy upon us, and You are the best of the merciful.” |

Quranic Dua In Surah Al Furqan:
Below is the Duʿāʾ known as the “Prayer of the Servants of the Most Merciful (ʿIbād ar-Raḥmān)” extracted from Sūrah Al-Furqān in table form, with its English translation:
Surah | Ayah | Arabic Duʿāʾ | English Translation |
Al-Furqān | 74 | وَالَّذِينَ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا هَبْ لَنَا مِنْ أَزْوَاجِنَا وَذُرِّيَّاتِنَا قُرَّةَ أَعْيُنٍ وَاجْعَلْنَا لِلْمُتَّقِينَ إِمَامًا | “And those who say, ‘Our Lord, grant us from among our wives and offspring comfort to our eyes and make us an example for the righteous.’” |
