Question

Kindly provide a reference for this du’a:

اللهم بارك لي في دنياي التي فيها بلاغي

 

Answer

This is part of a longer du’a that Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) would recite.

Sayyiduna Zubayr ibnul ‘Awwam (radiyallahu ‘anhu) related that Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) used to supplicate:

اللّٰهُمَّ بَارِكْ فِي دِينِي الَّذِي هُوَ عِصْمَةُ أَمْرِي، وَفِي آخِرَتِي الَّتِي إِلَيْهَا مَصِيرِي وَفِي دُنْيَايَ الَّتِي فِيهَا بَلَاغِي، وَاجْعَلْ حَيَاتِي زِيَادَةً فِي كُلِّ خَيْرٍ، وَاجْعَلِ الْمَوْتَ رَاحَةً مِنْ كُلِّ شَرٍّ

Transliteration: Allahumma barik fi dini alladhi huwa ‘ismatu amri wa fi akhirati allati ilayha masiri wa fi dunyaya allati fiha balaghi waj’al hayati ziyadatan fi kulli khayr waj’alil mawta rahatam min kulli sharr

Translation: O Allah, bless me in my Din which is the safeguard of my affairs and in my Hereafter which is my place of return. [Bless me] in my worldly affairs in which lies my means of sustenance. Make my life a source of abundance of every good and make my death a relief and comfort from every evil.

(Musnad Bazzar, Hadith: 986)

Imam Muslim (rahimahullah) has also recorded a similar du’a of Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) on the authority of Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (radiyallahu ‘anhu). See it here.

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
