Question:
Salaam,
I hope you can advise me I need a dua that I can read as I am going into a marriage where I will have a step son the step son is caught in between 2 parents one Muslim and the other a non-Muslim. I need a dua so the child is obedient to me from my side. I will do my best to give him love, but when I have met him twice he has been rude and very disrespectful and he is only 5 years old. His life style is very much like his mums non-Islamic even though he’s with his dad equally. I feel I’m going to have alot of problems with this child please can you give me some advice or something to read for this child to be obedient and someting to read for a successful marriage?
JazakAllah
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
After every Fard Salat make prayer that Allah opens his heart towards
you and recite “Ya Fattaah” 100x and “Yaa Mufattih al-Abwaab Iftah
Lanaa Khayr al-Baab” 10x daily or more.
Recite “Allahuma-kfinee bi-halaalika `an haraamik, w-aghninee
bi-fadlika `amman siwaak” 70x daily to seek a halal marriage.
