Du'a When Studying

Dua for getting more concentration in studying. رَبِّ اشْرَحْ لِي صَدْرِي وَيَسِّرْ لِي أَمْرِي وَاحْلُلْ عُقْدَةً مِّن لِّسَانِي يَفْقَهُوا قَوْلِي “O my Sustainer! Open up my heart and make my task easy for me, and loosen the knot from my tongue so that they might fully understand my speech.” This supplication can serve many purposes, used for standardized tests, and help improve your speech both orally and in writing. Recite this du’a before delivering lectures, a big interview or any time you might need it.  اللهُمَّ لا سَهْلَ إلا مَا جَعَلتَهُ سَهْلا وَ أنتَ تَجْعَلُ الحزْنَ إذا شِئْتَ سَهْلا O Allah! There is nothing easy except what You make easy, and You make the difficult easy if it is Your Will. This du'a is using when memorising and analysing.

Why We Need To Study More To Improve Our Amal

Islam is a religion that promotes the pursuit of knowledge as a virtue, with several verses in the Quran encouraging us to use our intellect to think and ponder. The following is an example of such a verse: وَسَخَّرَ لَكُم مَّا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ جَمِيعًا مِّنْهُ ۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَاتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ And He has subjected to you whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth - all from Him. Indeed in that are signs for people who give thought. (Surah Al-Jathiyah, 45:13) We as a Muslim are encouraged to keep learning new skills and gaining new knowledge in order to improve ourselves. We continue to question, analyse, and ponder as part of our knowledge tradition. We begin by broadening our reading horizons. We ask thoughtful questions and use critical thinking.
