Dua at Sunset Leaving Arafat — Departure to Muzdalifah

This is the primary dhikr for the Day of Arafat, the 9th of Dhul Hijjah. The standing at Arafat (wuquf) is the pillar of Hajj — the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: 'Hajj is Arafat' (Sunan al-Nasa'i 3016). The time of wuquf begins after the sun passes its zenith (zawal) on the 9th of Dhul Hijjah and lasts until Fajr of the 10th. The pilgrim should combine Dhuhr and Asr prayers shortened and combined at the time of Dhuhr, then dedicate the remainder of the day to dua, dhikr, and istighfar (seeking forgiveness). The Prophet (peace be upon him) stood at Arafat facing the Qiblah with his hands raised, making dua continuously until sunset. Shaykh Ibn Uthaymeen advised pilgrims to vary between this tahleel, recitation of Quran, personal dua in one's own language, istighfar, and salawat upon the Prophet. Other recommended supplications include: 'Allahumma innaka 'afuwwun tuhibbul-'afwa fa'fu 'anni' (O Allah, You are pardoning and love to pardon, so pardon me), and abundant istighfar (Astaghfirullah). The pilgrim should be humble, weep if able, and beg Allah for forgiveness and Paradise.

Frequently Asked Questions About Duas

There are no authentically narrated duas specific to each circuit of tawaf. The only established dua is 'Rabbana atina fid-dunya hasanah wa fil-akhirati hasanah wa qina adhab an-nar' recited between the Yemeni Corner and the Black Stone. You may make any personal supplication in any language during tawaf. Scholars like Ibn Uthaymeen emphasized that making personal dua is better than reading from a dua book without understanding.

Yes. You can supplicate to Allah in any language. While Arabic duas from the Quran and Sunnah carry special virtue, Allah understands all languages. The Shafi'i, Hanbali, and Hanafi schools all permit dua in non-Arabic languages. Sheikh Ibn Uthaymeen stated that making dua in your own language with sincerity is better than reciting Arabic duas you don't understand.

The most virtuous times for dua during Hajj include: the Day of Arafat (especially the afternoon), during tawaf, between the Yemeni Corner and the Black Stone, at the Multazam (the area between the door of the Kaaba and the Black Stone), while drinking Zamzam water, at Safa and Marwa during sa'i, and during the last third of the night. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: 'The best dua is the dua on the Day of Arafat' (Tirmidhi 3585).

Yes. IhramOS includes 100+ duas with full audio playback in Arabic, available completely offline. Each dua includes the Arabic text, transliteration, and translation in 5 languages. You can listen while performing rituals without needing an internet connection.

Yes, maintaining daily adhkar (morning and evening remembrance) during Hajj is highly recommended. The Prophet (ﷺ) continued his regular adhkar even during Hajj. Key adhkar include Ayatul Kursi, the three Quls (Al-Ikhlas, Al-Falaq, An-Nas), Sayyidul Istighfar, and the tasbih (SubhanAllah, Alhamdulillah, Allahu Akbar).
