Dua of Yunus (as)
“La Ilaaha Ilaa Antaa Subhaanaka Inni kunto minudh Dhuaalimeen”
There is no God but you (Allah), glory to thee and I was indeed wrong. - Holy Qur’an, Chapter 21, Verse 87
This is an expression which means: “May the blessings of Allah (be upon you).” When a Muslim wants to thank to another person, he uses different statements to express his thanks, appreciation, and gratitude. One of them is to say “Baraka Allah.”
This is an expression and a statement that Muslims have to recite before reading to Qur’an, before speaking, before doing any work, before making a supplication, before taking ablution, before entering the wash room, and before doing many other daily activities. The meaning of this phrase is: “I seek refuge from Allah from the outcast Satan.” Allah is the Arabic name of God.Satan is the source of evil and he always tries to misguide and mislead people. The Qur’an states that Satan is not an angel but a member of the Jinn, which are spiritual beings created by Allah. So the belief that Satan is a fallen angel is rejected in Islam.

Astaghfirullah.
This is an expression used by a Muslim when he wants to ask Allah forgiveness. The meaning of it is: “I ask Allah forgiveness.” A Muslim says this phrase many times, even when he is talking to another person. When a Muslim abstains from doing wrong, or even when he wants to prove that he is innocent of an incident he uses this expression. After every Salah (payer), a Muslim says this statement three times.
The first thing that a slave will be taken to account for on the day of Judgment will be his prayer. If it is complete, he will have been victorious and successful. If it is lacking, he will have failed and lost. And if something is missing from his obligatory Salât, Allâh will say: “Look and say if My slave has voluntary prayers. And his obligatory prayers that are lacking or incomplete will be completed by these.”
(Tirmidhi)

The Believer’s Fortress (Part 1) by Sabiha Iqbal.

Certainly will the believers have succeeded: They who are during their prayer humbly submissive And they who turn away from ill speech And they who are observant of zakah And they who guard their private parts Except from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they will not be blamed – But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors – And they who are to their trusts and their promises attentive. And they who carefully maintain their prayers – Those are the inheritors, Who will inherit al-Firdaus. They will abide therein eternally.
Surat al-Mu’minoon 1-11
O my Lord! Make me an establisher of Prayer, and [many] from descendants. Our Lord, and accept my supplication.
