The Ultimate Ramadan Dua’ List – Shaykh Navaid Aziz

Bismillah

I looked at the greatest needs we have in this day and age and selected 7 dua’s from the Quran and Sunnah that I feel would be in the best interests of every Muslim.
It would be ideal to print this list (or have it on your phone) and keep it handy at the time of iftar.Likewise, please add to your list anything else that you would like, especially that which your heart desires.
For your convenience I have included the Arabic, English transliteration, and English translation.
I pray Allah accepts from us all, and makes us from those who are forgiven and pardoned this Ramadan and entered into alfirdaws in the hereafter. Ameen.
