About this Supplication & Hadith Context
Meaning, spiritual background, and authentic virtues from the Sunnah
✦The Powerful Supplication of Prophet Musa (AS)
When Prophet Musa (AS) fled Egypt for Madyan, exhausted, hungry, and homeless, he helped two sisters water their flock and then sat in the shade praying: 'Rabbi inni lima anzalta ilayya min khayrin faqir' ('My Lord, indeed I am, for whatever good You would send down to me, in need' — Surah Al-Qasas 28:24).
✦Divine Response: Sustenance, Marriage, and Security
Immediately following this prayer, Allah opened doors of Rizq for Musa (AS): he was provided with dignified employment, honorable marriage, housing, and divine safety for a decade in Madyan. Scholars widely recommend this Dua for job seekers, those seeking marriage, and anyone experiencing financial hardship.
