Duʿāʾ to find spouse for marriage
Question
Please can you give me some Duʿāʾs (supplications) to pray to find a spouse.
بسم الله الرحمن الرحیم
Answer
The following is a succinct and comprehensive Duʿāʾ (supplication) from the Quran which you should read regularly for a pious spouse and other purposes:
رَبَّنَا آتِنَا فِي الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَفِي الْآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ
“Our Lord, give us good in the world and good in the hereafter, and save us from the punishment of the fire” (Baqarah: 201)
The Prophet ﷺ would read this Duʿāʾ frequently. May Allah Almighty grant you a pious spouse.
عن أنس قال: كان أكثر دعاء النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم: اللهم ربنا آتنا في الدنيا حسنة، وفي الآخرة حسنة، وقنا عذاب النار، رواه البخاري (٦٣٨٩). وروى ابن أبي حاتم في تفسيره (٢/٣٥٨) عن محمد بن كعب القرظي في هذه الآية: ربنا آتنا في الدنيا حسنة قال: المرأة الصالحة من الحسنات، انتهى۔
Allah knows best
