Dua for Repayment of Debt

Reading Time: 1 minute

 Maaz Ibne Jabal said:I failed to attend Friday prayer so the Holy Prophet (SAW) said:

“O Maaz! What kept you from attending Friday prayer?”

  I said O Messenger of Allah, I owe John, the Jew about serven Mesghal (35 grams) of gold and he is keeping watch at my door.  I was afraid of being caught by him.  The Holy Prophet (SAW) said: “Would you like God to repay your debt?”   I said: Yes O Messenger of Allah! The Holy Prophet said: recite: 

“O Allah, Master of the kingdom! You give the kingdom to whomsoever You please and take away the kingdom from whomsoever You please, and You exalt whom you please and abase whom You please; in Your hand is the good; surely, you have power over all things.  You make the night to pass into the day and You make the day pass into the night, and You bring forth the living from the dead and You bring forth the dead from the living.  and You give sustenance to whom You please without measure, O Merciful in the world and Hereafter.  You bestow these two Mercies upon whomever You wish and withhold it from whomsoever you wish, O God send greetings upon Mohammad and his household and have my debt repaid, O Generous One.”  Then the Holy Prophet (SAW) said:

“If your debt in gold is as much as the whole earth, God will repay it on your behalf.”
