What is the meaning of Morning Adhkar?
Adhkar is the plural form of the Arabic word Dhikr, which means remembrance of Allah (SWT).It
is a form of worship that involves praising and glorifying Allah (SWT).
Every moment spent in Adhkar is a moment spent in remembrance of our creator, Allah SWT.
It is a form of worship that opens up our hearts to the love and guidance of Allah SWT.
May our tongues never tire of praising and glorifying Allah SWT, and may our hearts always be
filled with the remembrance of Him.
Adhkar or Supplications Hold Great Significance in Islam
Reciting the Morning Adhkar was a daily practice of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
The Morning Adhkar comprises verses from the Holy Quran, authentic supplications, and
invocations that were narrated by the Prophet.
The recitation of Morning Adhkar is believed to protect from all kinds of evil, including envy,
magic, the evil eye, and the devils’ evil plotting. These supplications and invocations are ordained
by Allah and are meant to be recited regularly at certain times.
When Should the Morning Adhkar be Read?
It’s highly recommended to recite the Morning Adhkār sometime between Fajr and sunrise.
However, if for some reason you are unable to do so during these times, you can make up for
them later. For instance, if you happen to
go back to sleep after the Fajr prayer, you can recite them after waking up. Alternatively, you can
also read them right before Al-Duha Prayer.
The Benefits of Morning Adhkar
• Spiritual Connection with Allah (SWT)
Adhkar serves to establish a strong connection with Allah (SWT). By reciting morning
supplications, Muslims remember and acknowledge the presence of their Creator in their daily
lives. It helps in cultivating a sense of mindfulness and spirituality.
By reciting specific verses and supplications during Morning Adhkar, we are not merely
performing a ritual; we are connecting with our purpose and our Creator. This practice provides
a spiritual anchor for the day, reminding us of our deep sense of purpose and connection with
Allah.
As we begin our day with Morning Adhkar, we set a contemplative and intentional tone, allowing
us to navigate our daily lives with a heightened awareness of the spiritual dimension of our
existence.
Starting the day with Morning Adhkar enhances spiritual awareness and reminds of connection
with Allah.
• Practicing Gratitude Every Day
Reciting Morning Adhkar helps us express gratitude to Allah (SWT) for His blessings and favors.
Muslims are encouraged to be grateful for the countless blessings they receive, ranging from basic
necessities to spiritual well-being. Reciting these supplications helps instill a sense of gratitude
and contentment.
The practice of Morning Adhkar encourages believers to reflect on their blessings and express
gratitude to Allah.
This mindfulness sets a positive tone for the day and fosters appreciation for life’s gifts.
Allah says: ” If you tried to count Allah’s blessings, you would never be able to number them.
Surely Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.”
(Quran 16:18)
• Protection and Blessings
Morning Adhkar includes several verses from the Holy Quran and supplications from Sunnah
that aim to seek Allah’s protection from harm and invite His blessings. These invocations provide
a sense of divine shield and guidance to believers, helping them navigate through the challenges
of the day with ease.
Many Adhkar are specifically designed to seek Allah’s protection from various forms of harm, evil,
and temptations. Muslims believe that reciting these supplications can serve as a shield against
negative influences and evil spirits.
It was mentioned that the prophet (PBUH) said to read the Surahs of “Al-Falaq” and ”Al-Nas”
every morning to ask for Allah’s protection from any evil.
Reciting Adhkar is believed to act as a barrier against the influence of Shaitan and prevents
Mankind and Jinn from causing harm to the person reciting them.
Those who recite Adhkar daily build a fortress around themselves, protecting them from any type
of evil.
Unfortunately, many Muslims are unaware of the significance of these Adhkar and do not recite
them regularly.
As a result, they often fall prey to Shaitan and his associates from Mankind and Jinn, leading a
life of misery and depression.
• Emotional Well-being
The calming effect of reciting Morning Adhkar can positively impact an individual’s emotional
well-being.
It serves as a moment of introspection and serenity, promoting a more centered and balanced
mindset.
