Qur'anic Dua - 04 (English)

رَبَّنَا أَفْرِغْ عَلَيْنَا صَبْرًا وَثَبِّتْ أَقْدَامَنَا وَانصُرْنَا عَلَى الْقَوْمِ الْكَافِرِينَ ۔

Translation: 
 “Our Lord! Shower us with perseverance, make our steps firm, and give us victory over the disbelieving people.”

Explanation:

This dua is mentioned in Surah Al-Baqrah ayah No. 250.

This dua is the supplication of Prophet Dawood and his companions who were the army of Taloot.

Samweel (as) appointed Taloot as a king and leader of Banu Israel. He fought war against Jaloot who was a very tyrant ruler of his time. Many of Banu Israel did not participate in the war due to cowardliness. Prophet Darwood (as) was also in Taloot’s army. So, the army of the Talut read this dua seeking patience, steadfastness and support from Allah before fighting against the powerful army of Jaloot, finally Allah (saw) helped them defeat the army of Jaloot.

We can also read this dua before we start any difficult task.
