A Prayer For A Filial Son / Doa Anak Soleh

This is something taught to me by my husband's uncle who is an Ustaz. We saw him during the last Ramadhan and when he saw our two small kids, he gave us a tip to ensure that they grow up to be good and dutiful Muslim sons. 

He said, make it a habit to read the last verse of Surah Ali Imran to them when they are sleeping at night while caressing their head. 

The verse is:

The meaning is: 

"O Believers, persevere and endure and guard your territory and fear Allah, so that you may be successful."

In reading this verse, we pray that our children will be among the believers, and will persevere in carrying Allah's commands in doing what is right and staying away from what is wrong, and will guard their selves/ nafs from the worldly desires that are against Allah's words. So that they may be successful in this world and hereafter. 

Wallahu A'lam.

Malay Version:

Ayat Ali Imran yang terakhir adalah baik diamalkan setiap malam. Dibacakan ke atas anak-anak kamu sedang mereka tidur sambil mengusap-usap kepala mereka. 

Ayat ini bermaksud: 

"Wahai orang-orang yang beriman, bersabarlah, dan bersabarlah (dalam mempertahankan kesabaran itu) dan  sentiasa berwaspadalah kamu dan bertaqwalah kepada Allah, supaya kamu mendapat kemenangan."

Apabila kita membaca ayat ini, kita berdoa supaya anak-anak kita menjadi orang yang beriman, dan bersabar dalam menjalankan tanggungjawab mereka; melaksanakan perintah Allah s.w.t. dan menjauhi perkara yang terlarang. Dan juga sentiasa berwaspada dari bisikan nafsu supaya mereka berjaya di dunia dan di Akhirat kelak. Insya Allah. Amin.
