अल्लाह के सिवा कोई माबूद नहीं, जो बहुत बुर्दबार और करीम है। पाक है अल्लाह, अर्श-ए-अज़ीम का रब। सारी तारीफ़ें अल्लाह के लिए हैं जो सारे जहानों का रब है। मैं तुझसे तेरी रहमत के असबाब, तेरी मग़फ़िरत के पक्के वादे, हर नेकी में हिस्सा और हर गुनाह से सलामती माँगता हूँ। मेरा कोई गुनाह ऐसा न छोड़ जिसे तू माफ़ न कर दे, कोई फ़िक्र ऐसी न छोड़ जिसे तू दूर न कर दे, और कोई ऐसी हाजत न छोड़ जिसमें तेरी रज़ा हो और तू उसे पूरा न कर दे, ऐ सबसे ज़्यादा रहम करने वाले।

Dua e Hajat in Hadith
Abdullah ibn Abi Awfa (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: whoever has a need from Allah or from any of the children of Adam, let him make wudu and perform it well, then pray two rakats, then praise Allah and send salah upon the Prophet ﷺ, and then say the dua above. (Jami at-Tirmidhi: 479; Sunan Ibn Majah: 1384)
Scholars of hadith have discussed the chain of this narration, and some grade it weak because of one narrator. Many scholars still consider it acceptable to act upon for a voluntary prayer and dua, and Salatul Hajat is practised across the Muslim world on its basis.
The Longer Dua e Hajat
In India and Pakistan a much longer dua is also known as dua e hajat. It begins with “Ya Allahu, Ya Ahadu, Ya Wahidu” and is made up of the names of Allah, verses of the Quran, and requests for halal provision and help. It is not reported from the Prophet ﷺ in any hadith collection; it is a compiled supplication found in dua books. Reciting it is permissible, as it contains only praise of Allah and lawful requests, but the dua from the hadith above is the one to give priority to after Salatul Hajat.
Namaz e Hajat Ka Tarika (How to Pray Salatul Hajat)
- Make wudu properly.
- Make the intention of two rakats nafl for Salatul Hajat.
- Pray two rakats as you pray any nafl prayer. Any surahs may be recited after Al-Fatihah. Some scholars recommend Ayatul Kursi in the first rakat and Surah Al-Ikhlas in the second, but this is not fixed in the hadith.
- After the salam, praise Allah (for example, Alhamdu lillahi rabbil-‘alamin) and send durood on the Prophet ﷺ.
- Recite dua e hajat.
- Ask for your need in your own words, in any language, with full trust in Allah.
Some people pray four rakats. Two rakats is what the hadith mentions; four is also fine as nafl.
When to Pray Namaz e Hajat
- Any time except the three times when nafl prayer is not allowed: after Fajr until sunrise, when the sun is at its highest point, and after Asr until sunset.
- Best times: the last third of the night (tahajjud time), and the hour on Friday when dua is accepted, which many scholars place between Asr and Maghrib.
- Whenever a need arises. There is no limit on how many times it can be prayed.
Etiquette of Dua
- Begin with praise of Allah and durood, and end with them too.
- Face the qiblah and raise your hands.
- Ask with certainty. The Prophet ﷺ said to ask Allah with certainty that He will answer. (Jami at-Tirmidhi: 3479)
- Do not be hasty. The Prophet ﷺ said a person’s dua is answered as long as he does not say, “I prayed and was not answered.” (Sahih al-Bukhari: 6340; Sahih Muslim: 2735)
- Earn halal, because dua with haram food and clothing is not accepted. (Sahih Muslim: 1015)
Frequently Asked Questions
Can women pray namaz e hajat?
Yes. It is a nafl prayer open to everyone, except during menstruation or post-natal bleeding, when the dua alone may be recited without the prayer.
Can I pray salatul hajat for someone else?
Yes. You may pray and ask Allah for the need of a parent, child, friend or anyone else.
How many days should I pray namaz e hajat?
No number of days is fixed. Pray it once with sincerity, and repeat it as often as you wish until the need is met or Allah gives you something better.
Is there a specific surah for salatul hajat?
No specific surah is fixed in the hadith. Recite whatever you know well. Ayatul Kursi and Surah Al-Ikhlas are commonly chosen.
What if my need is not fulfilled?
The Prophet ﷺ said that no Muslim makes a dua without Allah giving one of three things: the thing itself, or something bad turned away from him, or reward stored for the Hereafter. (Musnad Ahmad) Keep asking and trust Allah’s choice.
