Thoughts of a Hijaabi

Yes that dreaded time called “Finals Week” has arrived! You know that time when you take a look around your campus and you see the libraries full, people constantly talking about classes and walking around with their notes and textbooks in their hands, students shaking crazily because they’ve been living off of caffeine, and… well I’m sure you get the picture. This is the time when stress and pressure is at an all time high. You stressing to make sure that you pass your final and then your parents pressuring you that the only passing grade is an A…. yeah we’ve all been there. Khayr, whatever is meant to be will happen juss study, don’t stress, don’t skip Fajr cuz you were up all night ’studying’ and makes lots of du’a and inshaAllah you’ll be fine

Juss in case here are the du’as:

Du’a before you study:

اَللَّهُمَّ انْفَعْنِي ِبمَا عَلَّمْتَنيِ وَ عَلِّمْنِي مَا يَنْفَعُنِي

Allahumma infa’nee bimaa ‘allamtanee wa’allimnee maa yanfa’unee.

Oh Allah! Make useful for me what You taught me and teach me knowledge that will be useful to me.

Du’a after you study:

إنَّكَ عَلَى مَا تَشَاءُ قَدِيراً وَّ أَنْتَ حَسْبِيَ وَ نِعْمَ الْوَكِيل

Innaka ‘ala maa tashaa`u qadeeraa wa anta hasbeeya wa na’mal wakeel.

Oh Allah! You do whatever You wish, and You are my Availer and Protector and the best of aid.

Keep me in your du’as and I’ll keep you in mine.

Take care inshaAllah.
