The Ones Who Asked

seven people asked Allah for one particular person. by name.

musa for his brother. zakariyya for a son at an age when it was finished. abu hurayrah for his mother's heart, on the day she said the thing about the Prophet ﷺ he couldn't bring himself to repeat. khawlah when she was told it was final. adam after he was the one who caused it.

each one gives you who asked and what had just happened, their exact words with the Arabic, what happened after, and the line to take into your own dua tonight.

then one more that isn't in the Quran. the night I ran out of everything, why I couldn't have heard any of this a month earlier, and what changed in a room where nothing had moved. that part has never been published anywhere.

32 pages, indexed by the night you're in.

these are not seven people with more access to Allah than you have.
