Ramadan is a sacred month filled with spiritual reflection, worship, and an opportunity to seek Allah’s mercy and blessings through heartfelt supplications, Subhan Allah. Making Ramadan dua (prayers) with sincerity can bring immense rewards and strengthen our connection with Allah. Whether seeking forgiveness, asking for guidance, or expressing gratitude, incorporating dua into your daily routine during Ramadan is essential for every Muslim.

Importance of Making Dua During Ramadan

The month of Ramadan is an opportunity for Muslims to seek Allah’s mercy, forgiveness, and blessings. It is a time when Allah’s mercy is abundant, and sincere supplications are more likely to be accepted. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, “The supplication of a fasting person is not rejected.” This emphasizes the significance of making dua throughout Ramadan, especially during moments such as Iftar and in the last ten nights.
