Page 112 - Microsoft Word - Du'a and Wirid (Autosaved)

Allāh  and His Messenger  have already clarified these

laws, both matters that are small and large within the lives of

‘mankind’, including the matters of dufiā√ and dhikr.
8. Because of that a Muslim must pay attention to the dufiā√ and

dhikr taught by the Messenger of Allāh , because dufiā√ and

dhikr are fiibādah, and since fiibādah is fundamentally
example (ittibāfi), and not to fabricate or make bidfiah and

follow the desires.

9. A Muslim must feel fulfilled andhe is satisfied with the dufiā√
and dhikr exemplified by the Messenger of Allāh , he is the

uswah ḥasanah, the best of role models, and he is the person

who knows better than all of creation about how to perform
fiibādah towards Allāh, sanctifies Him, , exalts Him, extols

Him, makes dufiā√ and dhikr to Him as well as performing the

bset dufiā√ and dhikr that are requested by a servant towards
149
Him.
10. That which is obligatory to be chosen and implemented by a
servant is those dufiā√ and dhikr of the Prophet  that are ṣaḥīḥ,

because within them are contained the most noble of purposes
and the highest of requests, and within them are contained

tauḥīd and ikhlāṣ, lawful fiibādah, as well as true love towards

Allāh  and His Messenger .

149 When a servant has not yet memorized the dufiā√ from the Messenger of Allāh  whilst ‘he’
has an urgent need, ‘he’ may perform dufiā√ with whatever language or ‘he’ performs dufiā√ by
means of its meaning only, from the dufiā√ that are ma√thūr. (Fatwa from various mashāyik -
fiulamā√). Wa’l-llāhu afilam biṣ-Ṣawāb.
