Dua for Patience

رَبَّنَا أَفْرِغْ عَلَيْنَا صَبْرًا وَثَبِّتْ أَقْدَامَنَا

Transliteration

Rabbanā afrigh ʿalaynā ṣabran wa-thabbit aqdāmanā

English meaning

Our Lord, pour upon us patience and make our footing firm.

When to recite

Pregnancy is a long act of patience — waiting for scans, sleeping uncomfortably, carrying tiredness no one else can see. Use this dua during physically demanding moments: a tough antenatal appointment, a sleepless night, the build-up to labour. It asks Allah to pour patience over you and steady your feet, the very dua Talut’s small army made before victory.
