A supplication from Sūrah al-Anbiyāʾ, uttered by Prophet Zakariyyā (Zechariah) when he prayed to Allah for an heir. It reflects the deep desire for progeny and the recognition of Allah…
رَبِّ لَا تَذَرْنِي فَرْدًا وَأَنْتَ خَيْرُ الْوَارِثِينَ
My Lord, do not leave me alone [with no heir], while You are the best of inheritors.
Rabbī lā tadharnī fardan wa anta khayrul-wārithīn.
Context
When seeking blessings of progeny or when feeling alone and seeking Allah's support and blessings. To seek Allah's blessings for a righteous heir and to recognise Him as the best of inheritors.
This supplication was made by Prophet Zakariyyā (Zechariah) when he was in old age and had no children. He made this duʿā to Allah, seeking a righteous heir who would continue the legacy of faith.
Benefits
This duʿā was uttered by Prophet Zakariyyā (Zechariah) when he was in old age and had no children. He supplicated to Allah to grant him an heir who would inherit the prophetic mission and continue the legacy of faith. It is a reminder of the importance of leaving behind a righteous progeny and the recognition of Allah's power to grant blessings even in seemingly impossible situations.
