Dua for Ramdhan Crescent Sighting
The Holy Prophet used to recite this dua on sighting the crescent of Ramadhan
رؤیت ہلال
اللّهُمّ أَهِلّهُ عَلَيْنَا بِالأَمْنِ وَالإيمَانِ
O Allah: (please do) cause this crescent to carry with it for us security and faith
وَالسّلامَةِ وَالإسْلامِ
And safety and Islam
وَالعَافِيَةِ المُجَلّلَةِ وَدِفَاعِ الأَسْقَامِ
And encompassing good health and repulsion of ailments,
وَالعَوْنِ عَلَى الصّلاةِ وَالصّيَامِ وَالقِيَامِ
And assistance on praying, observing fasting, and doing acts of worship,
وَتِلاوَةِ القُرْآنِ.
And on reciting the Qur’an.
اللّهُمّ سَلّمْنَا لِشَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ،
O Allah: (please do) keep us sound for the month of Ramadhan,
وَتَسَلّمْهُ مِنَّا،
And accept our deeds during it,
وَسَلّمْنَا فِيهِ
And save us during it,
حَتَّى يَنْقَضِيَ عَنَّا شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ
Until the month of Ramadhan will not elapse
وَقَدْ عَفَوْتَ عَنَّا وَغَفَرْتَ لَنَا وَرَحِمْتَنَا.
Except that You have pardoned us, forgiven us, and had mercy upon us.
