رَّبَّنَا عَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْنَا وَإِلَيْكَ أَنَبْنَا وَإِلَيْكَ الْمَصِيرُ
“Our Lord, we have put our trust in You; we turn to You; You are our final destination.” [Quran 60:40]
The believers stood at a crossroads—exile or submission.
Prophet Ibrahim (AS) and those with him had spent years calling their people to truth. But their hearts were deaf, their arrogance unshaken. The pressure was suffocating. The threats were real.
But faith doesn’t bow.
As they turned their backs on their homeland, leaving behind everything familiar, they raised their hands and made this dua.
This is the dua of those who walk into the unknown with certainty in Allah (SWT)’s plan. The dua of those who know that no home, no job, no person will ever be their security—only He will.
It’s the dua of those who have faced storms, yet still choose to trust.
The dua of those who have made mistakes, yet still turn back to Him.
The dua of those who know—no matter what happens, all roads lead to Him.
‘Upon You we place our trust’—because nothing is truly in our control.
‘To You we turn’—because no sin is too great, no distance too far.
‘To You is our final return’—because in the end, only one destination matters.
Walk this world knowing that whatever unfolds—whether success or failure, joy or heartbreak—you have handed your affairs over to the One who never fails His servants.
So make this your dua. Say it in the quiet moments of doubt. Say it when fear whispers, when the road ahead is unclear. Say it as a reminder that no matter how uncertain life feels—the One you trust is certain.
Walk forward, not in fear, but in faith.
Because those who entrust their affairs to Allah (SWT)? They are never abandoned.
