“Dua List for Ramadan 2025: Powerful Supplications to Recite”

Ramadan is a sacred month of prayer, reflection, and connection with Allah (SWT). Making dua (supplication) is one of the most powerful acts of worship, as it strengthens our faith and deepens our spiritual connection. In Ramadan 2025, seize the opportunity to seek forgiveness, ask for guidance, and pray for blessings through meaningful duas.

This guide provides a comprehensive list of powerful supplications to recite throughout the blessed month, along with their meanings and significance.

The Importance of Making Dua in Ramadan

The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said:

“Dua is the essence of worship.” (Tirmidhi)

Ramadan is the best time to make duas as Allah’s mercy is abundant, and prayers are readily accepted. Some key moments when duas hold special significance include:

• During Suhoor and Iftar – Moments of fasting and breaking fast are powerful times for supplication.
• On Laylatul Qadr (The Night of Decree) – A night worth more than a thousand months.
• During Tahajjud (late-night prayer) – The most blessed time for personal supplications.
