Definitely Yes. He is the one and the only one who can hear our Duas and prayers even if it were silently. Allah hears the silent cry of the heart. Follow this complete guide on how to get your Dua accepted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For some reason, our Dua sometimes does not get accepted. Maybe we did not make Dua with full trust in Allah\u2019s acceptance or we have sins that prevent our Dua to get accepted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We should also turn to Allah in all our matters and seek his acceptance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The prophet PBUH said:<\/strong>\u00a0\u201cLet one of you ask his Lord for his every need, until he asks Him for salt, and asks Him for the strap of his sandal when it breaks.\u201d Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3604j<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">TIP 1: How to get your Dua accepted<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Start your Dua by praising Allah \u0627\u0644\u062d\u0645\u062f \u0644\u0644\u0647 and sending blessings upon the Prophet \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647\u0645 \u0635\u0644\u064a \u0639\u0644\u064a \u0633\u064a\u062f\u0646\u0627 \u0645\u062d\u0645\u062f. Also, raise your hand in Dua and feel your need to Allah, and insist on Him of your need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One must be sincere in his&nbsp;<em>du\u2019a<\/em>, so he turns to Allah with an attentive heart, being truthful in his turning to Him, knowing that Allah SWT is capable of answering his&nbsp;<em>du\u2019a<\/em>&nbsp;and hoping that the&nbsp;<em>dua<\/em>&nbsp;will be answered. Also, One should get his living from a lawful source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your Dua is more likely to be accepted when you seek to make your Dua in certain times and situations. These times, places, and situations are mentioned by the prophet PBUH. That\u2019s how to get your Dua accepted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Times of acceptance of Dua are many and here I have collected to you some of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Times of acceptance of Dua from the teachings of the prophet<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dua in the night of Alqadr (decree).<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2018Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) reported: I asked: \u201cO Messenger of Allah!

Who asks Me forgiveness so that I may forgive him?<sup><a href=\"javascript:void(0)\">3<\/a><\/sup>Sahih Muslim 758a<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">After Fard Salawat (mandatory prayers).<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhat is offered in the latter part of the depth of the night and after the prescribed prayers.\u201d God\u2019s Messenger was asked which supplication is most readily listened to, and replied,\u201cWhat is offered in the latter part of the depth of the night and after the prescribed prayers.\u201d<sup><a href=\"javascript:void(0)\">4<\/a><\/sup>Mishkat al-Masabih 968<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Time between Azan (call to prayer) and Iqama.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The messanger PBUH said: Between the call to prayer and the \u2018Iqamah, you should supplicate Allah for yourself. Invocation during this time is not rejected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dua when it rains and in battle when the two armies are locked.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sahl b.

The prophet said about Friday \u201cThere is an hour (opportune time) on Friday and if a Muslim gets it while praying and asks something from Allah, then Allah will definitely meet his demand.\u201d And he (the Prophet) pointed out the shortness of that time with his hands. Sahih al-Bukhari 935<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Situations when Dua is accepted<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In these situations make Dua to Allah as it\u2019s a time of acceptance and you will get Dua answered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>When you wake up at night in the middle of your sleeping.<\/strong>\u00a0The Prophet (\ufdfa) \u201cWhoever gets up at night and says: \u2014 \u2018La ilaha il-lallah Wahdahu la Sharika lahu Lahu-lmulk, waLahu-l-hamd wahuwa \u2018ala kullishai\u2019in Qadir.

Also, eating or earning from unlawful (Haram) sources. For the prophet Hadith, \u2026..Then he (\ufdfa) made a mention of the person who travels for a long period of time, his hair is disheveled and covered with dust. He lifts his hand towards the sky and thus makes the supplication: \u2018My Rubb!
