Dua for wisdom, knowledge and elevation of status

[shaimaa]

Assalamualaikum,

I'm aware of dua's for many things, but is there such a dua for these things?

Isn't this a gift given to those who experience life in general?

[Dhul-Qarnayn]

Check out the English version of Amal Qur'ani by Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanawi (ra). There are duas popularly prescribed by Shaykhs for almost everything over the centuries.

I've searched online but I can't find it?

[Dhul-Qarnayn]

Try Darul Uloom Madania's website if it's working for you, it's not for me right now. I know they have the Urdu version for sale definitely.

EDIT: Try e-mailing the people at Madania and see if they can help you get a copy.

You could also just search around the internet for duas related to the above, and I'm sure some people will reply in here with some. Technically speaking, you could just do a hajat dua and specifically ask for any one of the above.

After salah, pray durood shareef once, then 7x surah that begins with "li illafi quraish..", then once durood shareef again. This makes difficulties easy.

For assured acceptance of duas, do a khatam of Quraan shareef then make dua.

[shaimaa]

JazakAllah khair.

[tariq3]

For knowledge there is the dua that Allah (swt) enjoined on the Prophet (saw) in the Qur'an, "Qul! Ya Rabbi zidni 'ilma".

[hafs]

Al hisnul hasin which is a dua book by Allamah Muhammed Al Jazri , has lots of prayers similar to the one you want . They're at the end of the book under the chapter of "Additional dua's" .
I wouldn't be without my Al hisnul haseen it is very comprehensive , with dua's for every occasion .

Assalamualikum
You can download some of the duas from here.

Question for scholars and if abu hajira can answer then even better....

one thing thats been on my mind for a long time has been some of the contents of aamal qurani, there are numerous articles on the net from salafis exposing the book to contain witchcraft etc. I have seen one or two things in there about writing names on stones/tree bark to break people up and also seen something about grinding bones and writing stuff for other purposes.

can somebody pls explain how these matters are justified islamically and does stuff like grinding bones constitute witchcraft or white magic?
