Ihyaaud Deen An Effort to Revive Deen in Totality
Hazrat Shaikh Moulana Muhammad Zakariyya (rahmatullahi ‘alaih) once mentioned the following:
During times of difficulty and anxiety, one should increase his zikrullah (i.e. increase making zikr of the pure and blessed name of Allah Ta‘ala). The reason is that taking the pure name of Allah Ta‘ala is a means of the heart acquiring tranquillity (peace of heart and peace of mind), and it is also a means of removing worries and difficulties.
Hazrat Shaikh (rahmatullahi ‘alaih) also mentioned that reciting the following dua seventy times daily is a means for one to acquire the assistance of Allah Ta‘ala in settling one’s debts:
اَللّٰهُمَّ اكْفِنِيْ بِحَلَالِكَ عَنْ حَرَامِكَ وَأَغْنِنِيْ بِفَضْلِكَ عَنْ مَّنْ سِوَاكَ
O Allah! Suffice me with Your halaal from Your haraam (i.e. suffice me with sustenance and wealth which You have declared as halaal and save me from sustenance and wealth which You have declared as haraam), and through Your special grace, make me independent from everyone else besides You.
Hazrat Shaikh (rahmatullahi ‘alaih) also mentioned, “Before and after reciting this dua, one should recite durood shareef seven times. One should also recite this dua on the day of Jumu’ah between asr and maghrib. Besides this, at other times as well, whenever one wishes, one should continue to recite this dua.”
