How this library was compiled
Checked at the source
Every dua here comes from the Quran or from the established hadith collections. Quranic duas were copied word for word from the Arabic text of the Quran and paired with Marmaduke Pickthall’s English translation. Duas from the Sunnah were checked against the collection named beneath each one, such as Sahih al-Bukhari or Sunan Abi Dawud. The English meanings of those duas are our own plain-English renderings, not word-for-word translations. A number such as “Recite 3×” appears only where the source itself gives it. Items we could not yet verify have been set aside for review by a scholar rather than published.
