Stars and Supplications

One of the truly amazing characteristics of the Quran is the fact that its message is timeless; it applies to us today, just as it applied to the noble Companions and those after them over a thousand years ago.

In this regard, Surah Ibrahim is one of the Quran’s many surahs that is filled with so many important lessons and themes. In fact, the surah takes its name from the mention of an episode in the life of Nabi Ibrahim (AS) in which he prays for the security of Makkah, protection from idolatry for him himself and his children, prosperity for his progeny, and forgiveness for his parents and all believers on “The Day of Hisab.”

As Muslim parents, not only should we have our children memorize this Quranic supplication, we should also attempt to explain the overall significance of supplication in the life of a believer. After all, the hadith teaches us: “When a person dies, his deeds come to an end except for three: sadaqah jariyah (a continuous charity); or knowledge from which benefit is gained; or A RIGHTEHOUS CHILD WHO PRAYS FOR HIM” (Muslim). And what a better way to do it than by having the du’a right beside your child’s bed!
