Two duꜤāˈs for eating

In accordance with the schedule of Dawat-e-Islami’s weekly gatherings, we will now learn a duꜤāˈ. This week we will learn two: the duꜤāˈ to be read before eating, and the duꜤāˈ to be recited before eating each morsel.

The duꜤāˈ for before eating: یَا وَاسعَ الْمَغْفِرَۃ

“O the one Who forgives a lot [forgive me too by virtue of Your mercy].”

The duꜤāˈ for before eating each morsel: یَا وَاجِدُ

“O the most independent.” ^[1]

Collective accountability – 72 Pious Deeds

The Messenger of Allah صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, “A moment of contemplation ˹over the Hereafter˺ is better than sixty years of worship.”^[2]

Let us make good intentions before filling in the Pious Deeds booklet.

1.  To please Allah, I will take account of myself through the Pious Deeds booklet and encourage others to do the same.

2.  I will praise and thank Allah for all the Pious Deeds I was able to perform.

3.  I will regret the Pious Deeds I could not perform and try my best to do them in future.
