Your Du‘ā’ Will Not Be Rejected If You Supplicate with Any of These Three
Sheikh Wahb Adh-Dhayfani rahimahullah wrote:
"Three great supplications that must not be neglected:
THE FIRST:
Narrated Anas ibn Mālik: I was sitting with the Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) and a man was offering prayer. He then supplicated, saying:
((اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَنَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ، لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ الْمَنَّانُ، بَدِيعُ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ، يَا ذَا الْجَلاَلِ وَالإِكْرَامِ، يَا حَىُّ يَا قَيُّومُ))
"O Allāh, I ask You by virtue of the fact that praise is due to You, there is no deity worthy of worship except You, Who bestows favour and beneficence, the Originator of the Heavens and the earth, O Lord of Majesty and Splendour, O Living One, O Eternal One."
The Prophet (ﷺ) then said:
((لَقَدْ دَعَا اللهَ بِاسْمِهِ الْعَظِيمِ الَّذِي إِذَا دُعِيَ بِهِ أَجَابَ وَإِذَا سُئِلَ بِهِ أَعْطَى))
He has asked Allāh using His Greatest Name, when supplicated by this name, He answers, and when asked by this name He gives.
[Transmitted by Abū Dāwūd (1495) and others; authenticated by Sheikh Muqbil in Ṣaḥīḥ Al-Musnad]
THE SECOND:
Narrated Buraydah ibn al-Ḥasib: The Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) heard a man saying:
((اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ أَنِّي أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ الله، لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ، الأَحَدُ الصَّمَدُ الَّذِي لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ))
"O Allāh, I ask You (by virtue of the fact) that I bear witness that there is no diety worthy of worship except You, the One, The Self-sufficient Master, Who did not beget, and was not begotten, and to Whom no one is equal."
The Prophet ﷺ said:
لَقَدْ سَأَلْتَ الله بِالاِسْمِ الَّذِي إِذَا سُئِلَ بِهِ أَعْطَى وَإِذَا دُعِيَ بِهِ أَجَابَ
You have asked Allāh using His Greatest Name, when asked with this name He gives, and when supplicated by this name He answers.
[Transmitted by Abū Dāwūd (1493) and others; authenticated by Sheikh Muqbil in Ṣaḥīḥ Al-Musnad]
THE THIRD:
Narrated Sa'd ibn Abī Waqqāṣ raḍhiyallāhu 'anhu: The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: The supplication of Dhun Nūn when he was in the whale's stomach:
((لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ سُبْحَانَكَ إِنِّي كُنْتُ مِنَ الظَّالِمِينَ))
“There is no diety worthy of worship except You to Whom be the glory. I was indeed a wrongdoer.”
Then the Prophet ﷺ said:
لَمْ يَدْعُ بِهَا رَجُلٌ مُسْلِمٌ فِي شَيْءٍ إلاَّ استجابَ لَهُ
No Muslim asks Allāh for anything with it except that He responds to him.
[Transmitted by Tirmthī, Aḥmad and others; authenticated by Sheikh Muqbil in Ṣaḥīḥ Al-Musnad]
