Paying off all debt - By Haji Khan

[Dr. Shabbir]

`Ali (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
A slave who had made a contract with his master to pay for his freedom,
came to me and said: "I am unable to fulfill my obligation, so help me.
'' Ali (May Allah be pleased with him) said to him: "Shall I not teach you a supplication
which the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) taught me?
It will surely prove so effective that if you have a debt as large as a huge mountain,
Allah will surely pay it for you. Say:

`Allahumm-akfini bihalalika `an haramika,
wa aghnini bifadlika `amman siwaka

(O Allah! Grant me enough of what You make lawful so that I may dispense with what
You make unlawful, and enable me by Your Grace to dispense with all but You).''
[At-Tirmidhi].
Commentary: It is important to recite this Du`a in order to seek Allah's Help in
paying one's debts and in avoiding to beg of people.

Wishful thinking! The N2I brother Haji Khan's prescription should leave not a single debtor in the world.
