The English word for duaa is supplication.

The Messenger of Allah taught us manysupplications that we can make to Allah.

There are some supplications that we make atparticular times or places.

For example, we have already looked at someduaas (supplications) that we can say whenwe enter or leave a masjid.

There are many other times where there areparticular duaas that we can say.

Allah told us in the Quran

So when you recite the Quran, [first] seek

refuge in Allah from Satan, the expelled [from

His mercy]. (Al-Nahl 16:98)

So before we recite Quran we should say

Aoodhu billaahi minash-shaitaanir-rajeem

Duaas for sneezing

After you sneeze you should say:

If you hear another Muslim saying Alhamdulillah after they sneeze then you should say tothem:

Yarhamuk-Allah

May Allah have mercy on you

Then that person should say back to you:

Yahdeekumu-Allahu wa yuslihu baalakum

May Allah guide you and rectify your

condition.

Two men once sneezed in front of theMessenger of Allah . He said to one of themyarhamuka Allah but he did not say it to theother man.

The companions of the Messenger of Allahasked him why he did this. He explained that

he said yarhamuka Allah to the man whohad said Alhamdu lillah after he sneezed; butbecause the other man did not say Alhamdulillah after he sneezed the Messenger of Allah

did not say Yarhamuka Allah to him.1

So if someone sneezes and does not praise

Allah by saying Alhamdu lillah we do notneed to say to them Yarhamuka Allah.

I hope you all remember to say Alhamdulillah when you sneeze.

We will look at many more duaa that we say

at specific times and places over the cominglessons.
