Introduction
Ramadan has three parts, called Ashras, each lasting ten days. The last Ashra is the most important and is called Ashra-e-Nijat (Days of Salvation). In these final ten days, Muslims pray more, ask for forgiveness, and seek Allah’s mercy. This article shares the Teesray Ashray ki Dua, its meaning, and how to benefit from these special days.
Importance of the Last Ashra of Ramadan
The last ten days of Ramadan are very special because they include Laylatul Qadr (the Night of Power). The Quran says this night is better than a thousand months (Quran 97:3). It is a time to ask Allah for forgiveness and protection from Hellfire.
Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) advised Muslims to pray more, remember Allah, and give charity during these days. He also used to spend these nights in I’tikaf (staying in the mosque for worship).
Teesray Ashray Ki Dua
Dua in Arabic:
اللَّهُمَّ أَجِرْنَا مِنَ النَّارِ
Dua in Urdu:
اے اللہ! ہمیں دوزخ کی آگ سے بچا لے۔
Dua in English:
O Allah! Save us from the fire of Hell.
This dua asks Allah to protect us from Hellfire, which is the main goal of the last Ashra.
