Jo Lamhe The Sukoon Ke Naat Lyrics in Hindi
जो लम्हे थे सुकूँ के सब मदीने में गुज़ार आए दिल-ए-मुज़्तर! वतन में अब तुझे कैसे क़रार आए
यही तो सूरत-ए-वज्ह-ए-क़रार-ए-ज़िंदगानी है बुलाएँ तो क़रार आए, वो आएँ तो क़रार आए
ख़ज़ाँ को हुक्म है दाख़िल न हो तयबा की गलियों में इजाज़त है नसीम आए, सबा आए, बहार आए
ये बस्ती अहल-ए-दिल की और दीवानों की बस्ती है गए जितने ख़िरद-नाज़ाँ वो दामन तार-तार आए
जबीं हो आस्ताँ पर, हाथ में रोज़े की जाली हो ये लम्हा ज़िंदगी में, ऐ ख़ुदा! फिर बार बार आए
जबीं हो उन के दर पर, हाथ में रोज़े की जाली हो ये लम्हे ज़िंदगी में, ऐ ख़ुदा! फिर बार बार आए
त'अय्युन मस्जिद-ओ-मेहराब का तयबा में क्या होता जहाँ नक़्श-ए-क़दम देखे वहीं सज्दे गुज़ार आए
क़लम जब से हुआ है ख़म, अदीब! आक़ा की मिदहत में बड़े रंगीं हुए मज़मूँ, बड़े नक़्श-ओ-निगार आए
क़लम जब से हुआ ख़म ना'त-ए-अहमद में, अदीब! अपना बहुत रंगीं हुए मज़मूँ, बड़े नक़्श-ओ-निगार आए
Jo lamhe the sukoon ke sab Madine mein guzaar aaye
Dil-e-muztar! Watan mein ab tujhe kaise qaraar aaye
Meaning: Shayar kehta hai ki zindagi ke asal sukoon ke lamhe Madinah mein guzar gaye. Ab Madinah se wapas watan aane ke baad bechain dil ko sukoon kaise mile?
Dil-e-muztar: Bechain dil Qaraar: Sukoon, chain
Yahi to soorat-e-wajh-e-qaraar-e-zindagaani hai
Bulaayen to qaraar aaye, woh aayein to qaraar aaye
Meaning: Zindagi ke dil ko asal qaraar tab mile jab Madinah se bulawa aaye aur dobara haazri naseeb ho. Is sher mein shayar apni gehri tamanna aur mohabbat bayan karta hai.
Khizaan ko hukm hai daakhil na ho Taiba ki galiyon mein
Ijaazat hai naseem aaye, saba aaye, bahaar aaye
Meaning: Shayar Madinah ki khoobsurti ko shayarana andaaz mein bayan karta hai. Woh kehta hai ki jaise khizaan ko Madinah ki galiyon mein aane ki ijazat hi nahi, wahan sirf thandi hawa, khushgawar naseem aur bahaar aaye.
Khizaan: Patjhad, autumn Taiba: Madinah Munawwarah ka ek naam Naseem/Saba: Halki aur khushgawar hawa Bahaar: Spring, khushhaali aur raunaq
Meaning: Madinah mohabbat karne walon aur ishq-e-Rasool ﷺ mein doobe hue logon ki basti hai. Shayar kehta hai ki jo log sirf apni aql par fakhr karte hue gaye, woh bhi wahan ki mohabbat se mutasir hokar laut aaye.
Ahl-e-dil: Mohabbat aur jazba rakhne wale Khirad: Aql Khirad-naazaan: Apni aql par naaz karne wale Daaman taar-taar: Shayarana taur par apni pehli kaifiyat ka toot jaana ya mohabbat mein be-khud ho jaana
Jabeen ho aastaan par, haath mein roze ki jaali ho
Ye lamha zindagi mein, ai Khuda! Phir baar baar aaye
Meaning: Shayar Allah se dua karta hai ki Roza-e-Rasool ﷺ par haazri ka woh mubarak lamha zindagi mein baar-baar naseeb ho.
Jabeen: Peshaani Aastaan: Dehleez Roze ki jaali: Roza-e-Rasool ﷺ ki jaali ki taraf ishara
Meaning: Is sher mein shayar Madinah se apni gehri roohani mohabbat ko shayarana andaaz mein bayan karta hai. Madinah ki sarzameen uske liye itni muqaddas aur azeez hai ki har jagah use Nabi-e-Kareem ﷺ ki nisbat yaad aati hai.
Ta'ayyun: Kisi khaas jagah ko muqarrar karna Mehraab: Masjid mein imam ke khade hone ki jagah Naqsh-e-qadam: Qadam ka nishaan
Qalam jab se hua hai kham, Adeeb! Aaqa ki midhat mein
Meaning: Adeeb Raipuri kehte hain ki jab se unka qalam Nabi-e-Kareem ﷺ ki tareef aur Naat likhne ke liye jhuka, unki shayari aur alfaaz mein ek nayi khoobsurti aur rang paida ho gaya.
“Jo Lamhe The Sukoon Ke Sab Madine Mein Guzaar Aaye” ka markazi jazba mohabbat-e-Madinah aur ishq-e-Rasool ﷺ hai.
Adeeb Raipuri Madinah mein guzare hue lamhon ko zindagi ke sabse pur-sukoon lamhe qarar dete hain. Madinah se lautne ke baad dil phir usi sukoon aur haazri ke liye beqarar rehta hai.
Kalaam mein Madinah ki galiyon, Roza-e-Rasool ﷺ ki jaali aur Taiba ki bahaar ka zikr isi gehri mohabbat aur roohani kaifiyat ko bayan karta hai.
Aakhir mein shayar apne qalam ka zikr karte hue kehte hain ki Nabi-e-Kareem ﷺ ki midhat mein likhne se unke alfaaz aur mazameen bhi khoobsurat ho gaye.
“Main Ke Be-Wuqat O Be-Mayah Hoon” is a beautiful Naat expressing humility, love for Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, and the deep spiritual attachment a devotee feels towards Madinah. The verses describe the joy of being present in Madinah, the honour of standing at the blessed threshold, and finally the pain of having to leave the city.
Main ke be-wuqat o be-mayah hoon
Teri mehfil mein chala aaya hoon
Aaj hoon main tera dehleez-nasheen
Aaj main arsh ka hum-payah hoon
Kainaton pe main tere dam se
Aasmanon ki tarah chhaya hoon
Chand pal yun teri qurbat mein kate
Jaise ik umr guzar aaya hoon
Jab bhi main arz-e-Madinah mein chala
Dil hi dil mein bohat itraya hoon
Tera paikar hai ke ik halat-e-noor
Jaliyon se tujhe dekh aaya hoon
Kitni pyari hai tere shehar ki dhoop
Khud ko akseer bana laya hoon
Yeh kahin khami-e-imaan hi na hoon
Main Madine se palat aaya hoon
Below are the complete lyrics along with simple meanings of each verse.
Main Ke Be-Wuqat O Be-Mayah Hoon Lyrics
Main ke be-wuqat o be-mayah hoon Teri mehfil mein chala aaya hoon
Meaning: Main apne aap ko bahut mamooli aur be-sarmaya samajhta hoon, phir bhi aap ﷺ ki mehfil mein haazir hone ki himmat karke chala aaya hoon.
Be-wuqat: Jiski koi haisiyat ya auqaat na ho Be-mayah: Jiske paas koi sarmaya ya qeemati cheez na ho
Aaj hoon main tera dehleez-nasheen Aaj main arsh ka hum-payah hoon
Meaning: Aaj main aap ﷺ ki dehleez par haazir hoon. Is nisbat ki wajah se mujhe aisa mehsoos ho raha hai jaise mujhe nihayat buland maqam mil gaya ho.
Dehleez-nasheen: Dehleez par baithne wala Arsh: Nihayat buland maqam Hum-payah: Barabar darje ya maqam wala
Kainaton pe main tere dam se Aasmanon ki tarah chhaya hoon
Meaning: Aap ﷺ ki nisbat aur barkat se mujhe itni azmat aur wus‘at mehsoos hoti hai jaise aasman kainaat par chhaya hua hai.
Tere dam se: Aap ﷺ ki nisbat ya barkat se
Chand pal yun teri qurbat mein kate Jaise ik umr guzar aaya hoon
Meaning: Aap ﷺ ki qurbat mein guzre chand lamhe itne gehre aur pur-sukoon the ki aisa mehsoos hua jaise un chand palon mein ek poori zindagi guzar gayi.
Qurbat: Nazdeeki, paas hone ka ehsaas
Jab bhi main arz-e-Madinah mein chala Dil hi dil mein bohat itraya hoon
Meaning: Jab bhi main Madinah ki mubarak sarzameen par chala, mere dil mein ek khaas khushi aur fakhr ka ehsaas hua ki mujhe is muqaddas jagah par chalne ka mauqa mila.
Arz-e-Madinah: Madinah ki sarzameen Itrana: Khushi ya fakhr mehsoos karna
Tera paikar hai ke ik halat-e-noor Jaliyon se tujhe dekh aaya hoon
Meaning: Shayar apni roohani kaifiyat bayan karta hai. Roza-e-Rasool ﷺ ki jaliyon ke saamne haazri ke waqt use ek gehra noorani aur roohani ehsaas hota hai.
Paikar: Soorat ya wujood Halat-e-noor: Noorani kaifiyat Jaliyan: Roza-e-Rasool ﷺ ki jaliyon ki taraf ishara
Kitni pyari hai tere shehar ki dhoop Khud ko akseer bana laya hoon
Meaning: Madinah ki dhoop bhi shayar ko itni pyari aur mubarak lagti hai ki wahan se lautne ke baad woh khud ko roohani taur par badla hua aur pehle se zyada qeemati mehsoos karta hai.
Akseer: Aisi cheez jo kisi mamooli cheez ko qeemati bana de; shayari mein tabdeeli aur roohani asar ke liye istemal hota hai.
Yeh kahin khami-e-imaan hi na ho Main Madine se palat aaya hoon
Meaning: Madinah se juda hone ka dard itna gehra hai ki shayar apne dil se sawaal karta hai: kahin yeh mere imaan ki kami toh nahi ki Madinah pahunchne ke baad bhi main use chhod kar wapas aa gaya?
Khami-e-imaan: Imaan mein kami ya kamzori
Yeh misra mohabbat aur judaai ki shayarana kaifiyat ko bayan karta hai.
Naat Ka Khulasa
Is khoobsurat kalaam ka markazi jazba aajizi, ishq-e-Rasool ﷺ aur mohabbat-e-Madinah hai.
Shayar khud ko be-wuqat aur be-mayah, yaani bahut mamooli samajhta hai. Lekin Nabi-e-Kareem ﷺ ki nisbat aur Madinah mein haazri uske liye itni badi daulat hai ki woh khud ko roohani taur par buland aur qeemati mehsoos karta hai.
Madinah mein guzre chand lamhe uske liye ek poori zindagi ke barabar hain. Madinah ki galiyan aur hatta ke wahan ki dhoop tak uske liye mohabbat ka sabab ban jaati hai.
Aur jab Madinah se rukhsat hone ka waqt aata hai, toh judaai ka dard itna gehra hota hai ki shayar kehta hai:
“Yeh kahin khami-e-imaan hi na ho, Main Madine se palat aaya hoon.”
Yahi aakhri sher poore kalaam ke jazbaat ko ek bahut khoobsurat aur dard-bhare andaaz mein samet deta hai.

Laylat al-Qadr | The Night of Power from Hadiths I. Hadrat Anas ibn Malik reported that when Ramadan came, the Holy Prophet said, “Indeed this month has come to you, and in it is a night more virtuous than a thousand months. So, whosoever is deprived of its blessings is deprived of all blessings. No one is kept deprived of its blessings, but only those who are unfortunate.” [Sunan Ibn Majah, Vol. 1, Page 119] II. Hadrat ‘Aishah reported that the Messenger of Allah has said, “Seek Lailatul Qadr on an odd numbered night (21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th and the 29th) among the last ten (nights) of Ramadan.” [Sahih Bukhari, Vol. 1, Page 270] III. Hadrat ‘Aishah reported that the Messenger of Allah used to strive hard in devotion in the last ten nights more than at any other time. [Sahih Muslim, Vol. 1, Page 372] IV. Hadrat Anas reported that the Messenger of Allah has said, “When Lailatul Qadr comes, Gabriel comes down with a company of angels who invoke blessings on everyone who is standing or sitting remembering Allah the Great and Glorious. Then when their festival day comes, i.e. the Eid day, He (Allah) speaks proudly of them to his angels saying, “O My angels, what is the reward of a hired servant who has fully accomplished his work?” They say, “Our Lord, his reward is that he should be paid his wages in full.” He says, “O My angels! My male and female servants have fulfilled what I have made obligatory for them, and then have come out raising their voices in supplication. By My Might, Glory, Honour, High dignity and Exalted Station, I will certainly answer them.” Then He says, “Return, I have forgiven you and changed your evil deeds into good deeds.” The Messenger of Allah said, “Then they return having received forgiveness.” [Mishkat, Vol. 1, Page 182] V. Hadrat ‘Aishah reported that when the last ten days began, the Messenger of Allah used to prepare himself rigorously for devotion; remain awake at night and (also) keep his family awake. [Sahih Bukhari, Vol. 1, Page 271]

During this time, reciting the proper duas before fasting and breaking the fast holds immense spiritual value. Many Muslims search for the correct Iftar Dua, Sehri Dua, and general Ramadan duas. This guide answers frequently asked questions with authentic references.
What is the Dua for Keeping the Fast? (Sehri Ki Dua | Suhoor Dua)
Before beginning the fast, it is Sunnah to recite the Sehri Dua:
Transliteration:Allahumma inni laka sumtu wa bika aamantu wa ‘alayka tawakkaltu wa ‘ala rizq-ika aftarthu.
Translation:O Allah! I fasted for You, I believe in You, I put my trust in You, and with Your sustenance, I break my fast.
🔹 Additional Sunnah: Before eating, say Bismillahir Rah’maanir Rah’eem and break your fast with dates or water, as per the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Sehri & Iftar Dua
1. What is the dua for Iftar today?
The Iftar Dua remains the same every day:
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي لَكَ صُمْتُ وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ وَعَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَعَلَى رِزْقِكَ أَفْطَرْتُ.
2. Which dua is accepted at Iftar?
Duas made at Iftar time are highly accepted. Ask Allah for forgiveness, guidance, and blessings.
3. How to open Roza Dua?
Before opening the fast, recite the Iftar Dua given above.
4. रोजा खोलने की दुआ कैसे पढ़ी जाती है?
"Allahumma inni laka sumtu wa bika aamantu wa ‘alayka tawakkaltu wa ‘ala rizq-ika aftarthu"
📖 Hindi Transliteration: "Ya Allah, tere liye roza rakha, tujh par iman laya, tujh par bharosa kiya, aur teri di gayi rozi se iftar kiya."
5. इफ्तार के रोज़े की दुआ क्या है?
जवाब: इफ्तार की दुआ यही है और इसे रोज़ा खोलने से पहले पढ़ना चाहिए:
Transliteration: Allahumma inni laka sumtu wa bika aamantu wa ‘alayka tawakkaltu wa ‘ala rizq-ika aftarthu.
हिंदी-उर्दू तर्जुमा: "ऐ अल्लाह! मैंने तेरे लिए रोज़ा रखा, तुझ पर ईमान लाया, तुझ पर तवक्कुल (भरोसा) किया और तेरी दी हुई रोज़ी से इफ्तार किया।"
6. इफ्तार में क्या कहना चाहिए?
जवाब: इफ्तार से पहले "बिस्मिल्लाह" कहना चाहिए और इफ्तार की दुआ पढ़नी चाहिए।
क्योंकि यह वक्त बड़ी बरकत और क़ुबूलियत का है, इस वक़्त अल्लाह तआला से अपनी हाज़त (ज़रूरतें) माँगनी चाहिए। इफ्तार का लम्हा रहमत, मग़फ़िरत और बरकत का लम्हा होता है, इस वक़्त दिल से दुआ करें, क्यूंकि यह वक्त अल्लाह तआला के क़रीब होने का सबसे अच्छा मौक़ा है।
Transliteration: Innaa anzalnahu fee laylatil qadr. Wa maa adraaka maa laylatul qadr. Laylatul qadri khayrum min alfi shahr. Tanazzalul malaa'ikatu war roohu feeha bi izni rabbihim min kulli amr. Salaamun hiya hatta matla'il fajr.
हिंदी-उर्दू तर्जुमा: "बेशक हमने इसको शबे-क़द्र (क़द्र की रात) में नाज़िल किया। और तुम्हें क्या मालूम कि शबे-क़द्र क्या है? यह रात हज़ार महीनों से बेहतर है। इस रात फ़रिश्ते और रुह (जिब्राईल अलैहिस्सलाम) अपने रब के हुक्म से हर अम्र (काम) के लिए उतरते हैं। यह रात तड़के के निकलने तक सलामती है।"

What is Iftar and Sehri (Suhoor)?
Iftar is a meal eaten by Muslims at sunset to break their daily fast during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. Iftar is the evening meal when Muslims end their daily Ramadan fast at sunset. It is preceded by a pre-dawn meal called suhoor. The fast is broken with dates, as was the tradition of the Islamic prophet Muhammad. This is followed by a prayer called the Maghrib prayer. Then, depending on the region, the iftar meal consists of a variety of traditional dishes, such as soups, salads, appetizers, main dishes, and desserts. After the meal, many Muslims attend a special congregational prayer called the Tarawih.
