Dua at the time of Tawaaf_1
Submitted by Mohammed Gilani on
While making tawaaf, one may recite the following zikr:
سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَالْحَمْدُ للهِ وَلَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا الله وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ وَلَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قَوْةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ
Glory be to Allah, and all praise is due to Allah, and there is none worthy of worship besides Allah, and Allah is the greatest, and there is no power (to refrain from sin) and no ability (to carry out righteous actions) except through Allah
عن أبي هريرة أنه سمع النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول من طاف بالبيت سبعا ولا يتكلم إلا بسبحان الله، والحمد لله، ولا إله إلا الله، والله أكبر، ولا حول ولا قوة إلا بالله محيت عنه عشر سيئات، وكتبت له عشر حسنات، ورفع له بها عشرة درجات سنن ابن ماجة
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (radhiyallahu anhu) reports that he heard Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) mention, "The one performing seven rounds tawaaf of the Baytullah should not speak, unless it is to recite (the following):
سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَالْحَمْدُ للهِ وَلَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ وَلَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوْةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (radhiyallahu anhu) then said, "(When one performing tawaaf recites this,) then ten of his sins are erased, ten good deeds are recorded for him, and through reciting these words, his rank is raised by ten stages."
