Teen Ashron ki Duain

In Ramadan Duas, there are three most beautiful prayers or duas that everyone should recite warmly and heartily. Those are known as Ashray ki Dua. The Holy month of Ramadan has three Ashras.
Ramadan’s First Ashra is to seek the “Mercy of Allah Almighty,” and this Ashra lasts for the first 10 days of Ramadan. Ramadan’s Second Ashra is to seek “Forgiveness from Allah Almighty,” and this Ashra lasts for the 2nd 10 days of Ramadan.
Lastly, Ramadan’s Third Ashra is to seek the “Protection of Allah Almighty from Hell,” and this Ashra lasts for the last 10 days of Ramadan month.

Pehly Ashray ki Dua/First 10 Days of Ramadan

First 10 days or first ashra of Ramadan is called Ashra e Rehmat (Ashra of Mercy). The dua of first ashra is given below:

رَبِّ اغْفِرْ وَارْحَمْ وَأَنْتَ خَيْرُ الرَّاحِمِينَ
O Allah! Forgive me and have mercy on me. You are the Most Merciful of all.
اے رب! مجھے بخش دے اور رحم کر اور تو سب سے بہتر رحم کرنے والا ہے۔

It is advised that pehly ashray ki dua should be recited in the first 10 days of Ramadan. Every Muslim’s primary goal on the first Ashra is to practice mercy toward others by aiding the poor and those in need, as Allah finds this to be the most loving deed. Also, moderate your wrath so that you may take good care of other Muslims.

Dosry Ashray ki Dua/Second 10 Days of Ramadan

Next 10 days or second ashra of Ramadan is called Ashra e Maghfirat(Ashra of Forgiveness). In the second Ashra of Ramadan, Muslims seek forgiveness for their evil deeds and ask Allah Almighty for His Blessing and Forgiveness by reciting the Dua of the second ashra.

اَسْتَغْفِرُ اللہَ رَبِّی مِنْ کُلِّ زَنْبٍ وَّ اَتُوْبُ اِلَیْہِ
I seek forgiveness from Allah, my Lord, for all my sins, and I turn towards Him.
میں اللہ سے تمام گناہوں کی بخشش مانگتا/مانگتی ہوں، جو میرا رب ہے اور اسی کی طرف رجوع کرتا/کرتی ہوں۔

This Dua has the strength to seek Allah’s forgiveness. Everyone should recite dosray ashray ki dua more and more, before and after offering prayer and in every moment for guidance and pity of Allah Almighty.

Tesry Ashray ki Dua/Last 10 Days of Ramadan

Last 10 days or third ashra Ramadan is called Ashra e Nijat(Ashra of Salvation). In the third and last Ashra of Ramadan, Muslims find pity and protection from the fire of Hell by reciting the Dua of the third Ashra or Tesray Ashray ki Dua written below:

اَللَّهُمَّ أَجِرْنِي مِنَ النَّارِ
O Allah, save me from the Fire(jahannum).
اے اللہ! مجھے آگ کے عذاب سے بچا لے۔2

Lailatul Qadr is one of the most enigmatic and potent evenings of the last ten days of Ramadan; virtuous deeds that night are better than a thousand months of fasting (Surah Al-Qadr 97:3).
