Ramadan Mubarak ka mahina rehmat, barkat aur maghfirat ka season hota hai. Is holy month mein Muslims duniya bhar mein Taraweeh namaz padhte hain, jo sirf Ramadan ki raaton mein Isha ke baad hoti hai. Taraweeh humare Rooh (soul) ko cleanse karti hai aur body ko discipline deti hai.
Taraweeh ki namaz ke breaks aur completion mein padhne wali special supplications ko Taraweeh Dua kaha jata hai. Ye sirf words repeat karna nahi, balki Allah Ta’ala ki hamd (praise), power, and greatness ko acknowledge karna hota hai.
What is Taraweeh Dua?
Taraweeh Dua woh supplication hai jo har 4 rak’ah ke baad ya complete Taraweeh ke end par padhi jati hai. Is dua ka main focus Allah ki greatness ko praise karna hai, na ke kuch maangna.
Yeh dua dil ko humble banati hai, ego ko break karti hai, aur insaan ko remind karti hai:
Allah is the One with Absolute Dominion & Power.

سُبْحَانَ ذِي الْمُلْكِ وَالْمَلَكُوتِ، سُبْحَانَ ذِي الْعِزَّةِ وَالْجَبَرُوتِ، سُبْحَانَ الْحَيِّ الَّذِي لَا يَمُوْتُ، سُبُّوحٌ قُدُّوْسٌ، رَبُّنَا وَرَبُّ الْمَلَائِكَةِ وَالرُّوحِ.

When to Recite Taraweeh Dua?
🔸 Har 4 rak’ah ke baad
🔸 20 rak’ah complete hone ke baad
🔸 Quran completion ke waqt (Khatm-e-Qur’an Dua)
Different countries aur masajid ki practices thodi different hoti hain, lekin sab allowed aur permissible hain.
Is Taraweeh Dua Compulsory?
Islamic scholars ke mutabiq:
- Ye dua wajib (compulsory) nahi
- Sunnah badi strongly proven bhi nahi
- Mubaah (allowed) aur Mustahab (good & beneficial) hai
- Individually ya collectively dono tarah padhi ja sakti hai
Is dua ko padna Islamic history se permissible and beneficial practice hai kyunki isme Allah ki taqdees (holiness), tauheed aur power ka zikr hota hai.
Short History of Taraweeh
Taraweeh Rasulullah ﷺ ke time se exist karti hai. Nabi ﷺ ne kuch nights jamaat me Taraweeh padhi, lekin phir ruk gaye. Jab sahaba ne reason poocha, Nabi ﷺ ne farmaya:
“Mujhe darr hua ke ye tum par fard (compulsory) na ho jaye.”
(Sahih Bukhari)
Baad me Hazrat Umar ibn Al-Khattab (RA) ne jamaat ko organize kiya. Isliye Taraweeh jamat ke saath padhna ek beautiful Islamic tradition ban gaya.
8 Rak’ah or 20 Rak’ah? Simple Understanding
- 8 rak’ah bhi valid
- 20 rak’ah bhi valid
- Masla quantity ka nahi, quality ka hai
Jaldi-jaldi 20 padhna se accha hai tawajjo ke saath 8 ya 20 padhna.
Spiritual Benefits of Taraweeh Dua
Taraweeh Dua ka hidden spiritual message:
- Insaan ki position low, Allah ki power high
- Death is for humans, not for Allah
- Power + kingdom only belong to Allah
- Angels and Jibreel A.S. also under Allah’s command
- Dua dil ke attitude ko change karti hai, words ko nahi
Is dua se humility develop hoti hai, aur worship mechanical nahi, meaningful ban jati hai.

Final Spiritual Advice
Ramadan ki ibadat competition ya numbers ke liye nahi hoti. Na 20, na 8 — Allah intention ko dekhte hain.
Ibadat ki asal khoobsurti:
- Ikhlaas (sincerity)
- Love of Allah
- Connection with Qur’an
Ibadat kam ho, lekin dil se ho.
Allah ko yeh zyada pasand hai.
