face”.

17. If possible, perform wuḍū√ in advance of making dufiā√.
110
18. There is no exaggeration in dufiā√.
19. Make tawaṣṣul to Allāh by means of √Asmā√-ul Ḥusnā and His
most high qualities, or by means of righteous deeds undertaken
by oneself or by means of the dufiā√ of a righteous person who
111
is still alive and is in front of oneself.
20. The food and drink consumed as well as the clothing worn
must be sourced from ḥalāl endeavors.
21. There is no performing of dufiā√ for a specific sin or to decide
upon ṣilāturaḥmi (joining of the ties of relationship).
22. Avoid all forms of immorality.
23. Must hold fast to √Amr Mafirūf wa’n-Nahī Munkar (advocating
the good and forbidding the evil).
108 Ibid.
109 The Prophet used to perform wuḍū√, then raise both his hands for dufiā√: “Ya Allāh,
forgive fiUbaid Abī fiĀmir…” (Narrated by Al Bukhārī 4323, Muslim 2498).
110 For instance:
1. Do not request something that is mustaḥīl (impossible - like asking to become a Prophet, so
that one can be eternally in the world, etc.)
2. Do not make dufiā√ in detail, like asking for Paradise; its blessings, a palace, and other things
that are mentioned one by one.
3. Request protection from Hell, fire, chains, handcuffs, and other such things.
4. Raise/harden the voice with loudness. (An-Nubadh, p.75, Fiqhud-Dufiā√, pp. 135-138).
111 Now, tawaṣṣul by means of a person who is already dead is impermissible, and there is no
example of such from the Messenger of Allāh , and also not from his Ṣaḥābat , and
moreover this is an act of bidfiah and can fall under the actions of shirk. Refer At-Tawaṣṣul
Anwāfiuhu wa Aḥkāmuhu by Shaikh Muḥammad Nāṣir ud Dīn al √Albānī ﷲا ﻪﲪر.
