Imam al-Haddad’s Intention for Seeking Knowledge
2.
I intend to study and teach,
to take and give a reminder,
to take and give benefit, to
take and give advantage, to
encourage holding fast to
the Book of God and the
way of His messenger, to
call to guidance and to direct
towards good, hoping for the
countenance of God and His
pleasure, His proximity and
His reward. Transcendent is
He.
Selected Duas for Studying
(next)
The following slide contains my preferred litany of duas for studying. It is simply my own arrangement;
it is not a “recommended” collection and it is not in a “recommended” order. The last slide contains a
much longer list of duas that you can pick and choose from to formulate your own litany.
