5 Beautiful Dua For Barakah In Rizq, Marriage & Everything

Barakah is an Arabic word that means “blessing” or “good fortune”. It refers to the positive things that happen in your life, such as good luck, prosperity, happiness, abundance and permanent good.

When you make dua for barakah, you’re asking Allah for His abundant and permanent blessings. The Quran and Sunnah teach us that only Allah can provide true blessings, and no one else can bless another person.

This means that the good things that come from Allah are tremendous, abundant, everlasting and confirmed.

So, seeking barakah is about asking Allah for His goodness and blessings to fill your life.

1. Dua For Barakah In Rizq

Here is a beautiful dua for increase and blessings in rizq, children and a long life:

اللَّهُمَّ أكْثِرْ مَالِي، وَوَلَدِي، وَبَارِكْ لِي فِيمَا أعْطَيْتَنِي [وَأطِلْ حَيَاتِي عَلَى طَاعَتِكَ، وَأحْسِنْ عَمَلِي وَاغْفِرْ لِي]

Transliteration: Allahumma akthir mali wa waladi, wa barik-li fima a’taitani [wa atil hayati ’ala ta’atik, wa ahsin ’amali wagfirli].

Meaning: O Allah increase my wealth and offspring and bless me in what You have provided for me [and give me a long life in obedience to You and help me to do all that is good and forgive me]

Hadith Text

This dua is extracted from the Dua of the Prophet (ﷺ) for Anas: Narrated Anas: The Prophet (ﷺ) paid a visit to Um-Sulaim and she placed before him dates and ghee.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Replace the ghee and dates in their respective containers for I am fasting.” Then he stood somewhere in her house and offered an optional prayer and then he invoked good on Um-Sulaim and her family.

Then Um-Sulaim said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) ! I have a special request (today).” He said, “What is it?” She replied, “(Please invoke for) your servant Anas.” So Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) did not leave anything good in the world or the Hereafter which he did not invoke (Allah to bestow) on me and said,

“O Allah! Give him (i.e. Anas) property and children and bless him.” Thus I am one of the richest among the Ansar and my daughter Umaina told me that when Al-Hajjaj came to Basra, more than 120 of my offspring had been buried.

[Sahih al-Bukhari, 1982, Sahih Muslim 660]

Al-Albani’s Insights on a Hadeeth

Al-Albani highlighted several benefits from this hadeeth, which I’ll summarize briefly:

• It’s permissible to pray for increased wealth and offspring.
• The chapter heading in Bukhari’s collection confirms this.
• Wealth and offspring are blessings if used in obedience to Allah.
• Limiting family size through birth control, regulation, or abortion is misguided, especially when done for trivial reasons. Some people even seek faulty religious edicts to justify their actions!
• Allah granted the Prophet’s (ﷺ) prayer for Anas, making him the wealthiest and most prolific among the Ansar.

In essence, Al-Albani emphasizes the importance of trusting Allah’s plan and accepting His blessings, including wealth and offspring, while obeying His commands.
