“40 minutes Duaa in Rukuu“ | Explanations of Duaas in SALAT #5 | Ustadh Mohamad Baajour

Inshallah today we'll continue with the ad'iya of the salat. We all, alhamdulillah rabbil alamin, perform our salawat every single day, but many of the duas that we recite in the salawat, we have no idea what they mean.

So alhamdulillah we finished all the duas that are before the Fatiha, and now we are moving to to the ruku.

In the ruku, we all know Subhana Rabbiyal Adheem.

And we do not know, many of us do not know that there are four more authentic duas in the ruku that Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam did. Four duas in the ruku that we can say other than Subhana Rabbiyal Adheem or after Subhana Rabbiyal Adheem.

And we have said many, many times that one of the ways in order to concentrate in the salat is to alternate with the duas as long as the dua is authentic. Okay, because if if I always repeat the same thing, then it becomes mechanical, right?

Now, we have duas that are specifically for ruku, and we have duas that are specifically for sujud, and there are duas that are can be used in sujud and in ruku. Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam used them in sujud and ruku. The ones that are for ruku strictly for ruku is Subhana Rabbiyal Adheem, I cannot say Subhana Rabbiyal Adheem in my sujud. The one that is strictly for sujud is Subhana Rabbiyal A'la in my sujud. Now, there are few common, I will take the common and then I will take there are two also specific for for ruku.

The common ones, the Hadith is in Bukhari, that Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam used to say, Subhanaka Allahumma Rabbana wa bihamdika, Allahummaghfirli.

Subhanaka Allahumma Rabbana wa bihamdika, Allahummaghfirli. This dua is in ruku and in sujud. Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said, fa amma fil ruku fa azzimu rabb, in ruku glorify Allah Azza wa Jall, and in the sujud make as much dua as you want, that will be our next week inshallah. So the first one that is common, Subhanaka Allahumma Rabbana wa bihamdika, Allahummaghfirli. Ya ikhwan, this is 100% authentic in in Bukhari.

Second that is common for ruku and sujud, Subbuhun Quddusun Rabbul Mala'ikati war-Ruh. Subbuhun Quddusun Rabbul Mala'ikati war-Ruh, ruku and sujud.

Now we come to the last two which are only for ruku. Allahumma, this Hadith is in Sahih Muslim, also 100% authentic.

Allahumma laka raka'tu, wa bika 'amantu, wa laka 'aslamtu, khasha'a laka sam'ee wa basari, wa mukhkhī, wa `azmī, wa `asabi.

Subhanallah, beautiful dua. Ya Allah, to You only I make ruku. Ya Allah, I believe in You. Ya Allah, I submitted to You.

Humbled is my hearing before You, humbled is my sight before You, humbled is my brain before You, humbled are my bones before You, humbled are my veins before You. All this is in ruku and this is by Aisha Radiyallahu Anha, I heard Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam say that.

Now listen to the last one, Subhanallah.

May Allah forgive us, wallahi ya ikhwan. Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam guaranteed Jannah.

All his sins are forgiven if he had any.

And the Sahabi narrating the Hadith, Ka'b, he said, Qumtu ma'a Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, I was performing qiyam, so this dua is specifically in the ruku of Tahajjud. I was praying with Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, and he made ruku, and in his ruku he said this dua as long as it take you to recite Suratul Baqarah.

He kept on repeating the dua as long as Suratul Baqarah. Subhana dhil-jabaruti, walmalakuti, walkibriya'i, wal`azamati.

All of them has one meaning, different meanings but they all come, I'm glorifying the greatness, the bounty of Allah Azza wa Jall.

Subhanallah ya ikhwan, many of us when we finish this short surah, we go to ruku because it's the next rukn, I have no other choice.

But many of us go down there and they are looking forward for this ibadah that is only done for Allah Azza wa Jall. So I want please from now on, have a different taste for the ruku.

We go to ruku quickly, Subhana Rabbiyal Adheem, Subhana Rabbiyal Adheem, Subhana Rabbiyal Adheem, yalla and get up and yalla we want to rush.

And our beloved Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam who's guaranteed, guaranteed Jannah, we are guaranteed nothing.

40 minutes saying one dua.

So ya ikhwan, sometimes the Imam takes a little bit long. After I finish my three Subhana Rabbiyal Adheem, Subbuhun Quddusun Rabbul Mala'ikati war-Ruh.

After I finish my three Subhana Rabbiyal Adheem, Subhanaka Allahumma Rabbana wa bihamdika, Allahummaghfirli. Allahumma laka raka'tu, wa bika 'amantu, wa laka 'aslamtu, khasha'a laka sam'ee wa basari, wa mukhkhī, wa `azmī, wa `asabi.

Subhanallah. So add the more you add, the more you concentrate, the more you feel the connection with Allah Azza wa Jall.

So please try to memorize these duas and implement them in your salat, and I guarantee you, you will see the difference in the salat.

May Allah make us from the people who listen and apply, and I would love to see you all tomorrow at 5:30 AM with the best salat in the sight of Allah, the salat of Jumu'ah in the Masjid.

Jazakumullahu Khairan. Wa Sallallahu ala Nabiyina Muhammadin wa alihi wa sahbihi ajma'in.
