Al-Baqara: 127
Home > >
وَإِذْ يَرْفَعُ إِبْرَٰهِۦمُ ٱلْقَوَاعِدَ مِنَ ٱلْبَيْتِ وَإِسْمَٰعِيلُ رَبَّنَا تَقَبَّلْ مِنَّآ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ ﴿١٢٧﴾
And when Ibrahim and Ismail raised the foundations of the House:
Our Lord! accept from us; surely Thou art the Hearing, the Knowing:
اور اس وقت کو یاد کرو جب ابراہیم علیھ السّلامو اسماعیل علیھ السّلامخانہ کعبہ کی دیواروں کو بلند کر رہے تھے اوردل میں یہ دعا تھی کہ
پروردگار ہماری محنت کو قبول فرمالے کہ تو بہترین سننے والا اورجاننے والا ہے
Prophet Ibrahim and Prophet Isma-il while building up the house of Allah, the holy ka’bah, prayed to Allah for the successful completion of their project. Putting in the best efforts does not make your labour fruitful, because there are many unknown and uncontrollable forces working in the universe that can bring disappointment if Allah, who not only knows but has total control over all things and events, does not help you. So always invoke Allah by reciting this verse in the traditions of His prophets, whenever you take up a job, which has not been prohibited. Also recite this verse at the end of any good deed-after praying and wajib or sunnah salat, or when you have read whole or part of the holy Quran, in a single sitting, or after attending a majlis (a religious gathering for mentioning the merits of the Holy prophet and his Ahl ul Bayt). Recitation of this verse is also recommended for seeking fulfillment of any legitimate desire.
