Fast Sustenance: Proven Dhikr and Prayers for Abundant Rizq
Reciting "La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah" and seeking forgiveness are effective ways to attract sustenance, increase blessings, and bring peace of mind.
Many seek ways to attract sustenance and blessings in daily life. Scholars emphasize the power of dhikr (remembrance) and istighfar (seeking forgiveness) as proven methods to draw rizq. Dhikr calms the heart, repels negative influences, and encourages devotion to prayer.
Dr. Ali Gomaa, member of the Senior Scholars of Al-Azhar, stated that the phrase "La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah" is a treasure from the treasures of the Throne, and a significant gate to Paradise. Regular recitation brings divine support and reliance on Allah, with the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) saying: "Whoever constantly seeks forgiveness, Allah will provide relief from every distress and sustenance from unexpected sources."
A recommended practice includes reciting Surah Alam Nashrah 40 times daily, alongside consistent istighfar and gratitude, as mentioned in the Quran: "Say, 'Ask forgiveness of your Lord; indeed, He is ever forgiving. He will send rain from the sky upon you in showers and increase you in wealth and children.'"
Prayers for sustenance include:
"O Allah, suffice me with Your lawful provisions against Your forbidden, and enrich me by Your bounty above all else."
"O Allah, I seek refuge from incapacity, laziness, cowardice, miserliness, and trials of life and death."
"O Allah, make the Quran the spring of my heart, the light of my chest, and the removal of my sorrow."
The key to increasing rizq is sincerity, persistence in dhikr, gratitude, and reliance on Allah, recognizing that sustenance encompasses wealth, children, ease in affairs, rainfall, and overall blessings.
