A heart's and a home's residents | Prayers for our hearts and our homes

Bismillah.

I have discovered something interesting and precious in the middle of the night. Alhamdulillah. Again, credit goes to Muwasala FB for sharing precious gems of the learned and the pious. This one is from Habib Umar bin Hafiz. It has to be copied here so that it would be easier for us to memorize and internalize it inshaAllah. So now we know "who" are the rightful residents of a heart and a home.

The rightful residents of a heart are:
  • beneficial knowledge
  • knowledge of Allah
  • absolute certainty
  • complete scrupulousness.

And the rightful residents of a home are those who possess the above.

اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْ مُسْتَقَرَّ العِلْمِ النَّافِعِ قُلُوبَنا، ومُسْتَقَرَّ أَرْبَابِهِ دِيارَنا. اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْ مُسْتَقَرَّ المَعْرِفَةِ بِاللهِ قُلُوبَنا، ومُسْتَقَرَّ أَرْبَابِها دِيارَنا. اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْ مُسْتَقَرَّ اليَقِينِ التَّامِّ قُلُوبَنا ، و مُسْتَقَرَّ أَرْبَابِهِ دِيارَنا. اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْ مُسْتَقَرَّ الوَرَعِ الحَاجِزِ قُلُوبَنا ، و مُسْتَقَرَّ أَرْبَابِهِ دِيارَنا.


"O Allah, make our hearts
places where beneficial knowledge resides
and make our homes
places where those who possess it reside.

O Allah, make our our hearts
places where knowledge of Allah resides
and make our homes
places where those who possess it reside.

O Allah, make our hearts
places where absolute certainty resides
and make our homes
places where those who possess it reside.

O Allah, make our hearts
places where complete scrupulousness resides
and make our homes
places where those who possess it reside."
