1) For strengthening eyesight, one should read Ya Shakooru 41 times on water and apply it to the eyes and them drink the remaining water. Insha’Allah Azzawajal you will notice a difference in your sight within 7 days.Please make your niyat before reciting.
2) Recite the last part of the 22nd ayah of surah Qaf 7 times, after fardh of each prayer:
فَكَشَفْنَا عَنكَ غِطَاءكَ فَبَصَرُكَ الْيَوْمَ حَدِيدٌThen recite Ya Nooru 3 times and blow onto your thumbs and wipe over your eyes three times

You can place your fingers on your eyes to apply the water. Due to the requirement of drinking the water as well, preferably a glass of water would be a good choice.

As’salamu ‘alaykum,
There are many more ways of improving your eyesight, such as Surma and other Wzif’as. You may find something more effective by asking a Scholar.
Ragarding your question, you only need do it once. For example, once on monday, and wait for seven days. Also, Recitation of Salawat and Salam on the Beloved Prophet (sall’Allahu Ta’ala ‘alayhi wa’alihi wa’sallam) before and after will bring about more blessings, Insha’Allah Ta’ala.
May Allah Ta’ala make it easy for you, and grant you your wishes. Ameen.

Which is Ya Shakooru dua. and What is the last part of 22nd ayah of surah Qaf? Please tell me ASAP.
what is the recitation of Salawat and Salam on the Beloved Prophet (sall’Allahu Ta’ala ‘alayhi wa’alihi wa’sallam)?
Do I have to do step one and two, or are they options?
Haider said,
May 25, 2008 @ 10:07 am
As’salamu ‘alaykum,
1) Ya Shakooru is not a dua but is one of the names of Allah Ta’ala. For more info look at this link:
http://www.deenislam.co.uk/dua/jam_english.htm
2) As for the 22nd ayah of Sur’ah al Qaf, view these two links:
Arabic:
http://www.ahadees.com/arabic-surah-50-45.html
English:
http://www.ahadees.com/english-surah-50.html
3) Salawat and Salam on the Beloved Prophet (sall’Allahu Ta’ala ‘alayhi wa’alihi wa’sallam) means to send peace and blessing upon the Holy Prophet (sall’Allahu Ta’ala ‘alayhi wa’alihi wa’sallam). The recitation of Salawat will be a source of blessing and mercy from Allah Ta’ala. That is why we should recite Salawat and Salam on the Beloved Prophet (sall’Allahu Ta’ala ‘alayhi wa’alihi wa’sallam) before and after dua’s anf other religious deeds.
There are many you can recite, such as, Durood-e-Ibrahimi, which you recite in your daily Salah (prayers). This following link provides many other Salawats:
http://www.islamicacademy.org/html/Dorood.htm
4) Yes 1 and 2 are options.
Hope this helps, Insha’Allah Ta’ala.

I have read that if you read the Darood shariff 1000 times a day, you’ll never die, until you see a your place in Heaven with your own eyes. Now, would that be the same if I read this darood because it is equal to 600,000 sawabs that you get from reading the Darood Shariff? http://www.islamicacademy.org/html/Dorood/Dorood-600000.htm
I hope this makes sense.
Haider said,
May 28, 2008 @ 6:33 pm
Walaykum as’salaam,
No it won’t be the same if you read a different Durood Shairf than the one mentioned.
You will have to recite the specific Durood Shairf that was mentioned.
The reason is that each Durood Shairf is different, has different benefits, and should be read according to the way told.
So, you should recite the Durood Shairf 1000 time a day and not take another approach and read another Durood Shairf. Although you will get reward, you may not gain the benefit intended.
Replacing the exsisting Durood Sharif with the one here http://www.islamicacademy.org/html/Dorood/Dorood-600000.htm will get you rewards, but you may not gain the benefit intended (i.e see your place in Heaven with your own eyes before you die).
Hope that makes sense.

Thank you for the answer.
Would taking a shower be the same as a Wadu? I mean, if I take a shower would I have to do my Wadu separately?
Can a shower take the place of a Wadu?
Also, is it OK to say the Daroods or other holy stuff in your heart while you’re in the bathroom?
Haider said,
May 28, 2008 @ 8:36 pm
Walaykum as’salaam,
For your first question, it depends on the Madhab you follow. Since you use the word “durood”, your probably from an Asian background, which means you probably follow the Hanafi Madhab. Considering this, taking a shower by itself won’t be enough. Along with having a shower you will need to clean your mouth (gargle 3x) and also clean your nostrils (3x).
So shower + washing of mouth and nostrils will be enough, and you won’t need to perform wudhu.
Just so you know, it is sunah to do wudhu before a ghusl (or shower).
For your second question, it depends on where you are in the bathroom (is that area impure) and what you are doing. If you’re next to the sink then it should’nt be a problem. But if your cleaning the toilet, it is disrespect to send Durood on the Beloved Prophet (sall’Allahu Ta’ala ‘alayhi wa’alihi wa’sallam). That is why many Scholars say that we should not have Qur’an ayat recitations as moblie phone ringtones. We dont know what impure area or state we will be in when the ringtone goes off.
The best way to send Durood on the Beloved Prophet (sall’Allahu Ta’ala ‘alayhi wa’alihi wa’sallam) is in a clean environment, facing Qibla or Medina and sitting like you would in Salah (namaz). Also, try to recite Durood whenever you’re walking in the house or outside, when you’re cooking, etc. by doing so the number of Duroods you recite will be in the 100’s, or even in the 1000’s. Insha’Allah Ta’ala.
PS: Try and join YaNabi.com. It is a beautiful website, and your questions will be answered in much more detail by brothers and sisters who have much more knowledge than me.
Pray that Allah Ta’ala gives me the ability to understand Islam in more depth.

Apologies for the late reply.
Our local Imam (Alim) is abroad and will be for a few more weeks. So until then try getting your eys checked by an optician and keeping making dua.
When I have more information I will let you know. Insha’Allah Ta’ala.
To your question about abadat. Do as much as you can handle. The advice I was given was to start off doing a few minutes of abadat a day and then slowly increase it to 30 minutres and then to a few hours. In this way you will slowly build yourself to maintain your levels of abadat.
Haider said,
June 13, 2008 @ 10:12 pm
As to your question regarding offering salah on a plane.
You can pray while sitting on your seat. In such a situation, where it is impossible to determine the Qiblah, one can pray towards any direction.
If it is possible to detemine the Qiblah through the position of the sun or with the help of the direction of your aeroplane, then one may do so or else the above is sufficient.
However, it is difficult to perform ablution on the plane so one can offer it when they reach the destination and are excused but it is best to perform ablution from home to offer Salah on time and in time.
Kareen said,

As’salamu ‘alaykum,
I forgive you for the late apologize. It’s OK.
I got my eyes checked about three months and they were fine until I began wiping my eyes with the water. I read the Darood Sharif (Ibrahim) (10 times) and Ya Shakooru and then Darood Sharif (Ibrahim) (10 times) almost once a week and every time I finished wiping my eyes, my vision would blur out.
One of my Koran teacher told me to read the verse of Surah Qaf while I had my fingers and thumb on my eyes and this method also blurs my vision.Same thing also happens to me when I do Ya nooro elevn times. Do you think Allah may be punishing me for something? Should I quit this method and not ask Allah Ta’ala for my vision anymore?????? :(** Or does Allah (SWT) want to see how patience I can be? Could it take weeks, months or even years before I have my 20/20 vision?
Kareen said,

About the plane trip. In exactly which direction is the Qiblah? I think I normally face East when I do my prayers. Is this the right direction?
I have another question. If I’m in a place (school or plane) and I’m wearing tennis shoes and socks, should I take them off or would it be OK if I don’t wash my feet? Would Allah (swt) accept my Wazu (Wadu)? :> and what if my sleeves are too tight. Should I leave my sleeves on and wipe over them with my wet hands without touching them, so they won’t get wet? I hope this make sense? Sorry, I can’t really explain it better.
Haider said,
June 15, 2008 @ 12:14 am
Walaykum as’salaam,
If your put pressure or water on your eyes, for the first few moments your eyes will be blurry. But after a while it should be ok. We all have different tests from Allah Ta’ala, so try to be patient.
About the plane, well it depends where you are. For example, if your in Malaysia then Qibla would be west, but if your in Mexico Qibla will be east. Also, if you don’t know the exact angle it’s not a problem as long as you are within 90 degrees of Qibla.
Regarding wudhu, washing the feet is a requirement in the Hanafi Madhab. The water has to touch the body parts (such as hands, face, etc). If a single part of your hand (upto elbow) is dry (i.e not washed) your wudhu is not accepted.
To put it simply, you would need to wash the all required areas for wudhu to be completed.

Yes it is allowed. But make sure it’s taken off or covered before entering the toilet.
Also, don’t have verses og the Qur’an on a bracelet (or necklace) whilst listening to music or partaking in other un-Islamic activities, as this is severe disrespect.

I have read something on the Yanabi site about watches and it said that women shouldn’t wear watches. Is this true?
why is it not allowed for a women to dye her hair black but she can dye it with Mehndi (Henna)? My gets a reaction to henna so she just uses a black dye. Is this allowed or not?

You misunderstood me. I was trying to say that your can wear a bracelet, necklace and so on but to show respect make sure you take it off when entering the toilet, etc.
I never heard any Shaykh saying women cannot wear watches. I’ll try to confirm that.
About the dye, I’m sorry but I don’t know the answer. Perhaps you should ask on YaNabi.com. Trust me, the kind people there are very knowledgeable.

If it doesn’t work, then perhaps you can ask other Shayooks for other dua’s you can recite for your eyesight. All problems and illnesses can be cured through many mehtods, such as dua, reciting Salawat, etc.

Haider said,

Apologies for the confusion.
The niyyat is made inside yourself and you don’t need to say anything.
For example, in Salah you make:
1) intention to read the namaz/salah in your heart
2) then you will also make niyyat by saying it out loudly or whispering it
By niyyat, I am refering to the first one (number 1). Just make the intention in your heart.

You are right, Ithmid is the best surma to use. Also, another word for surma is kohl.

You won’t find much luck online.
The chance of finding it depends on which area you live in.

Refer to the following for more info:
Read number 5, where is states:
“Thus, this Sunnah of Hazrat Adam (alaihis salaam) became consistent in his descendants. When Hazrat Jibraeel Ameen (alaihis salaam) informed Rasoolullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) of this, he said, “That person, who when hearing my name in Azaan, kisses his thumb nails and turns it over his eyes, he shall never go blind.” (Tafseer Roohul Bayaan)

Assalamailakum,
I wanted to ask whether you could clearly outline the steps involved in performing this Dua for a healthier eyesight.
1.) Do we recite Ya Shakooru 41 times first and then apply one coat of water on our eyes? Or recite Ya Shakooru once then apply one coat of water on our eyes, then recite Ya Shakooru again and apply water on eyes and so on up to 41 times.
2.) I am still confused on how to apply the water to our eyes and what fingers to use. Do we apply the water on the actual eye? As in the actual pupil, or just on the eyelid? And which fingers on which hand (right or left) should we use to touch the water to our eyes?
3.) When reciting the 22nd ayah of Surah Qaf 7 times (I am a non-Arabic speaker) can I say the English words “Assuredly, you were heedless of this, therefore We have removed from you the covering, so today your sight is sharp” 7 times? Is this the correct section to recite 7 times?
4.) After reciting the 22nd ayah of Surah Qaf, do we recite Ya Nooru 3 times initially and then blow onto both thumbs and use our right thumb to wipe our right eye and left thumb to wipe our right eye three times? Or Ya Nooru once, blow thumbs, wipe eyes, then Ya Nooru again, blow thumbs, wipe eyes until the third time? Also I have read that Ya Nooru should be read 11 times? Which is correct?
Jazak Allah

Walaykum as’salaam,
1) Recite Ya Shakooru 41 times first and then apply one coat of water on our eyes
2) Applying the water on the eye lids is recommended. However, there are those who apply the water on the actual eye. However, this method can cause issues. If possible, it should be done with the right hand. However, usage of both hands is permissible.
3) If you are new to Islam or have recently started learning about the Religion then you may be excused in reciting the words in the English translation. However, like Salah, if you know how to read Arabic, you should recite in Arabic.
4) I’m afraid I can’t seem to find the answer for this question. The source where I got the information does not provide a clear indication.

May Allah (swt) be pleased with every Muslim. And may Allah (swt) guide us to the straight path. Ameen.
Edit: Video removed due to certain issues. My apologies.
Friday is the best day to make dua and Inshallah it’s guaranteed to come true.
Do recite Darood Shariff and do a lot of zikhar. Recite ayat-ul-khursi.
In case you can’t comprehend what is being said. I’ll tell you the basic;
He’s saying that after you pray Asr prayer stay on the prayer mat (Musla) and increase your zikhr and ask Allah (swt) whatever you want with a sincere heart. From Asr till Maghrib Salah stay on the prayer mat and do a lot of daroods and cry out through the fear of Allah. May Allah accept everyone’s dua. Ameen. Keep me in your duas. Jazakallah Kahir. May Allah improve your hearing. Ameen.

im 15 years old. My eyesight is bad, and i think its recently gotten worse. I recite Ya Nooru every night on a tasbeeh. I really want my eyesight to be better, and pray to Allah SWT to help my eyesight. I dont understand why my eyesight isnt getting better if I ask Allah for forgivness and to help my eyes. I don’t understand why others’ eyesights aren’t getting better after all they’re doing. Please explain this to me. I will try what you’ve said above to do for your eyes. Please make dua for my eyes.

I read your comments re bad etesight and bad dreams have you ever check if you have black magic done on you. Do 2 rakat istikara and ask Allah to bring in your dreams clearly if there has been black magic on you. Black magic also cause bad eyesight though you read many wazifa you wil not get cured until you clean your self from bad neagative energy.

Salam….
I read the first option on reading ya shakooru 41 “on water”……. – does this mean wetting the hands under running water?then using the fingerss to wipe around the eyes….coz you said to use the remaining water to drink on a glass. so perhaps I use the same water from the glass to wipe the eyes and drink right? I hope this isnt confusing to you or anyone as it may sound but I just wated to perform this correctly because Im praying for my eyes to to get better – I’ve been reading surah ayatul kursi then blowing onto my fingers and wiping around the eyes after almost every prayer because surah ayatul kursi I hear has many benefits and cures- so I’ve been doing that……
Anyway thank you for your help and salam
Haider said,
August 12, 2009 @ 10:45 pm
Because you will need to read on the water, you will need still water. If your using water from a cup or a glass then you can drink the remaining water.

Asalamu Alaikum to all…so much of discussion has been going on about eyesight problem and duas for the same…let me explain…first of all Allah tests men with sickness, injury, loss of life of loved ones, with poverty and other problems to see the strength of our faith…so during tough times be patient as Allah has said innallaha magha sabireen in the Holy Quran which means Allah is with the stead fast…and pray for patience – rabba afrigh alayna sabran wasabith aqdaamana wansurna alal qaumil kafireen meaning Oh Lord! Pour forth steadfastness upon us and help us against the disbelieving people.
now coming on to sickness and diseases – the best prayer for anything – anything and everything is the opening chapter of the Holy Quran Surah Fatiha…read Sura Fatiha and salaat i.e. Durood Shareef on Prophet Muhammad (saw) as much as possible.
then do the following prayers
Shaafi is one of the most beautiful name of Allah which means The Healer – so no matter what medications we use or what we eat or drink – unless Allah heals our sickness it wont be healed – so pray to Allah calling Allah Shaafi…you can say in ur own words – Ya Shaafi heal me completely.
then there are these following duas – allahumma adh-hibal-bas, rabbannas, ishfi wa antal shafi, la shifaa illa shifauka, shifa’al yughadiru saqama which means O Allah Remove the hardship, O lord of mankind , grant cure for you are the healer, there is no cure but from you, cure which leave no illness behind.
dont think once you pray Allah will relieve you of your ailment, coz it depends on your heart to and how you make the prayers…make the prayer in earnest and cry like a baby when praying to Allah…Allah would surely listen to such prayers…
sometimes no matter how much we pray some illnesses might not be cured and it might even cause our death – this is because Allah has willed it and we cant change what Allah has willed. We can only pray to Allah but it is upto Allah whether to accept those prayers or not. He might test us further and see how strong our faith is.
hope this helps.
Wassalam

Recite any Durood Shareef with sincerity and love, and Insha’Allah you will be succesful with your education. Also, when you do dua, recite Durood Shareef at the start and at the end of the dua.
1) Durood-e-Fath: http://www.islamicacademy.org/html/Articles/English/Excellence_in_Durood_Sharif_3.htm
“This Durood Shareef brings prosperity and favour and solves all the complex problems by the Grace of Allah”.
PS: I am sure you are smart. Have confidence in your abilities and you shall prosper in your life. Insha’Allah Azza wa’jal.

Assalamualaikum everyone here..I haven’t read all the posts so far regarding the eyesight matter so I don’t know if u all know this:
After every farz prayer keep the edges of all ur fingers on ur eyes and recite Ayat Al Kursi starting from Bismillah and when u reach the point in Ayat Al Kursi where u recite “walaa yauuduhu hifzuhumaa”, instead of reciting this part of the ayah once..recite it 11 times and then end Ayat Al Kursi and blow over the edges of ur fingers and then rub your fingers over your eyes.

I have a very bad sight , wearing specs since i was 5 years of age and now i am 28 wearing prescription of -8 and had once a small surgery to close a hole in my retina. I have visited many doctors and many online sites and docs, contacted them regarding my prob but had no hope of getting my sight back to 20/20. This is the main thing we do , after trying out everything now we turn to Alllah and ask for help.This is the very selfish nature of ours when we only then start chanting and pray .I feel guilty for this. But anyways wanted to say that I AM reading the AYATAL KURSEE the way a person mentioned above as to how to read that after every fard namaz since 2 yrs now.
11x YA NOORU
3x FAKASHAFNA AN KA GHITA AKA FABASARUKAL YOUMA HADEED
and i mostly read subhan – alla walhamdulilah wala ila ha illaha wallahu akbar and every now and then i try reading Quran without specs and contacts.
I knew about YA BASEERU and SURAH QAF many years back but never tried it.The new tasbeeh I got from this site is YA SHAKOORU 41x whcih inshallah will be starting it as soon as possible.
May Allah help us all to chose the right path to enter paradise and keep us away from ill health and all evil. AMEEN

i ve 5 duas on my list and half of them are like impossible category, meaning they demand a miracle to happen. one of them is eye sight cure, so what should i do? shall i continue asking Allah , CUX ONE WHO GIVES up ALLAh’s mercy is astray. But the point is they are legal duas but of worldly importance mainly., again i need them too! really i do!
hereafter us better tho, so m asking them right. is it okay?
and last any dua for black heads removal?

salam o alaikum! again
now this is v. important!
i read surah Waqiah, and ALLAH mentions three category of people on day of judgement:
the foremost category, the right hand and the left hand!
so i ve this new desire n i pray to ALLAH to make me one of the foremost category, cux they are closest to ALLAH and the best. But in surah its also written that a few will be form later generations and it makes sense. I WANT TO BE IN FOREMOST CATEGORY BY ALLAH’S MERCY!
but m not really a perfect righteous person, i mean i stay away from major sins, with ALLAH’s grace but overall m very moderate. u know! no music recently, but i tried to wake up at tahajjud and it was very hard and i was scared at night so i ve done much tahajud prayer. m a girl ofcourse, so what do i do?! how can i be better in good deeds and be in foremost category? can u do some research what foremost category demands? and pleaes tell me! from 7th grade i hated tmporary things and this life is temporary.! waht do i do? so many many people are better than me like kareen above and so many more. they are better !!! ALLAH loves them!!! what do i do?? :(((
( i am sorry ALLAH for saying anything wrong above, cux it may be in ignorance and ur the real FORGIVER AND ONLY FORGIVER)

Most of d ppl in my family have poor eyesight. Everytime I pray that one morning I shud wake up and c dat my eyesights back. I bliv in destiny and Allah(SWT)knows better. If u hav poor eyesight you shud pray 2 Allah. If it gets better Alhamdulillah but if it doesn’t don’t loose faith. Everything happens for a reason. Be gr8ful for there are those dat can not even c at all. In whatever position u find urself in give thanks 2 Allah(SWT) cuz it cud b even worse. May Allah answer all ur prayers. Ameen!

If one cannot afford to get glasses or contact lenses, get a pair of pinhole spectacles. You can pick one up from ebay for a couple of dollars or pounds. Those with myopia will be able to see from far away with them (provided they are used in the day time or in a bright area), and those with hyperopia can use them as reading glasses. Don’t use them for driving though.
I use them while on the PC, TV, shopping, etc and they are much longer lasting than prescription glasses.
