I once heard in a bayan something to the effect that if one ends up accidentally looking at a ghair mehram member of the opposite sex, that there is a dua which can be recited at such an occasion? The sheikh giving the bayan went on to say something to the effect that this can turn something 'bad' like accidentally looking at a ghair mehram female (such as when walking on the street etc) into something 'good', i.e. a source of reward, Insha'Allah, since one is reciting the musnoon dua for the occasion.

I have not been able to find this dua by a bit of Googling. If there is such a dua, would anyone please mind posting it?





EDIT: Before someone gets the wrong idea that it's OK to go around checking out women/men as long as you are reciting this dua as you do it (may Allah protect us, Ameen), I just want to make it clear that obviously this is for times when one ACCIDENTALLY ends up looking at someone they shouldn't be looking at, even though they are trying their best to lower their gaze, such as while walking, driving, etc; and that one would need to immediately lower their gaze/look away and then recite this dua. This is not something to play with but rather a serious matter. .

I do not know if this is that duaa?
Allahumma tahhir qalbi minan nifaaqi wa amali minar riyaai' wa lisani minal kazibi wa aini minal khiyanati fa innaka ta'alamu khaainatal a'yuni wa maa tukhfis sudoor.

"O Allah! purify my heart from hypocrisy, my actions from ostentation, my tongue from lies, my eyes from treachery for verily You know the treachery of eyes and whatever the hearts conceal."

[Valdoyes]

Brothers recite this : Allahumma Innee A-oozubeka min fitnatinnisaa-e wa-a-oozibika min azabil kabr
(Oo Allah save me from the fitna of women and save me from punishment of the grave)

Sisters recite this(Most probably...contact an aalim for pronounciation) : Allahumma Innee A-oozubeka min fitnatil rejaal
(Oo Allah save me from the fitna of men)


Also recite astagfirullah three times

[brorialsibers]

for the replies sister and brother.

Do you, or anyone, have the Arabic of these duas and don't mind posting it? Again, for some reason, I can't find it online.

السلام عليكم

اَلّهُمَّ إنِّيْ أعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ النِّسآءِ وَ أعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ

اَلّهُمَّ إنِّيْ أعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الرِّجَالِ


I typed out the du'aa brother Faizanakram99. I didn't do sister MercyofAllah's since there are a few words I'm not sure of and would rather not risk a misspell.

Now that's what I'm talking about!

brother, may Allah reward you and your family abundantly in this life and in the hereafter. Ameen.

If anyone knows and can type out accurate Arabic for the one sister MercyofAllah wrote (or can find the Arabic online), please post it as well.

Brother Assalamo Alaikum

say this dua for that:

"اللَّهُمَّ اكْفِنِي بِحَلَالِكَ عَنْ حَرَامِكَ، وَأَغْنِنِي بِفَضْلِكَ عَمَّنْ سِوَاكَ ".

And ALLAH knows

[Stoottnoiciek]

May Allah give the OP immense reward. Very beneficial thread.
Thanks for posting the duas everyone.

I do not know if this is that duaa?
Allahumma tahhir qalbi minan nifaaqi wa amali minar riyaai' wa lisani minal kazibi wa aini minal khiyanati fa innaka ta'alamu khaainatal a'yuni wa maa tukhfis sudoor.

"O Allah! purify my heart from hypocrisy, my actions from ostentation, my tongue from lies, my eyes from treachery for verily You know the treachery of eyes and whatever the hearts conceal."

Could anyone please give the Arabic text of this for memorization . This seems to me the best dua here as it covers every situation and more meaningful.


Ohhh by the way brother Abdul-Khaaliq maybe its not a good idea to lower your gaze while your driving .

Lol... Yes brother Zahed, I didn't want anyone to get that idea either, which is why I was careful with my wording:

...lower their gaze/look away...

Of course, sometimes I feel like 'lowering my gaze' while driving, but we'll leave that for another thread!

[NKUDirectory]

this is from faid ul qadeer - hurf al hamzah: 180/2

[Qxkmsxsx]

May be but I took it from Munajat-e-Maqbool.

[Honealals]

Just a reminder for everyone, If you happen to see a beautiful woman, and the nafs pushes you to prolong your gaze but you lower your eyes for the sake of Allah , make sure you make a substantive Dua for yourself at that time, sufis has recommended this...
