SHAFAQNA- Supplication on Noble Moral Traits “Makarimul Akhlaq” Acts Pleasing to God
Supplication – 20, AlSaheefat AlSajjadiyyah
This Du’a has been taught by Imam Sajjad (as) and is a clear indication of the loftiness of moral virtues expected of a believer. Islam believes in the elevation of the human being, that a human is a great and dignified creation, far above the animal world. One of the signs of this dignity is the possession of noble and magnanimous qualities.
In order to achieve this behavioral excellence, man needs to overcome his base and selfish attributes, and cultivate noble qualities.
In this Du”a the Imam specifies these qualities, and shows how we can try to inculcate them in ourselves. Taken as a lesson in Akhlaq, the Du’a is a wonderful program for those who wish to excel in good manners.
“The most complete in faith among the believers is he who has the best manners.”{Holy Prophet}
DUA: Allah please accept this from us. You are All-Hearing and All-Knowing. You are The Most Forgiving.You are The Most Relenting and repeatedly Merciful. Allah grant us The Taufiq to read all the 5 prayers with sincerity.
