VIDEO: Watch Your Tongue When Speaking to The One – Adab of Du’a 08


Allah Most High says, “I am near – I answer the call of the one who calls upon me (2:186).”

Yet, many of us wonder: Are my du’as being answered? Is there a certain du’a I have to read for each of my concerns? Do my du’as have to be in Arabic?

In this video, Shaykh Faraz continues to explain the facilitative conditions and etiquettes of making du’a. Amongst these etiquettes is to make sure one knows the meaning of the du’a one is reading, and to avoid errors in pronunciation and speech as much as one is able.
