The Accepted Whispers | 200+ Du’as from Qur’an & Hadith with Translation, Transliteration and Commentary

The Accepted Whispers (New Flexicover Edition) is a carefully curated collection of over 200 du’as (supplications) from the Qur’an and Hadith, designed for daily reading, reflection, and spiritual connection.

Du’a is the essence of worship and the believer’s direct link with Allah—an intimate conversation that brings solace, strength, and transformation. This book gathers powerful supplications that nurture faith and deepen one’s relationship with the Creator.

Each du’a is presented in Arabic, along with English translation, transliteration, and detailed commentary. The explanations provide context, meaning, virtues, and spiritual significance, helping readers understand not only what to recite, but also how and why these supplications matter in a believer’s life.

This selection was originally compiled by Mawlana Ashraf Ali Thanawi (1863–1943) under the title Munajaat-e-Maqbul. Like his Bihishti Zewar (Heavenly Ornaments), it has been very popular in the countries of the Indian subcontinent, where it has become a household name. This English edition aims at making his timeless selection accessible to a wider global audience.

This edition also features a new flexicover format with improved binding, ribbon bookmark, and durable paper quality, printed in Turkey with the latest revisions incorporated.

Whether used for daily worship, personal reflection, or spiritual growth, The Accepted Whispers serves as a constant companion for anyone seeking closeness to Allah through the most powerful form of worship—du’a.

Reviewer's Comments

"Khalid Baig's writing is indeed inspiring. The Accepted Whispers is no exception. It is a source of immense solace; an orchard lush with spritual harmony. This is essential reading for the young and the old." --- Maulana Ebrahim Bham, Jamiatul Ulama, Transvaal, South Africa

The Compiler

Mawlana Ashraf Ali Thanawi (1280-1362 AH/1863-1943 CE), commonly referred to as Hakim al-Ummat ("Sage of the Ummah"), was a giant among the Islamic scholars of the twentieth century. He was a master in all branches of Islamic scholarship including Qur'an, Hadith, Fiqh and Tasawwuf. A prolific writer, he had more than a thousand publications to his credit. He wrote for the minimally literate as effectively as he did for scholars. Nearly a century later some of his books remain as popular as they were when originally published. Mufti Muhammad Taqi Usmani writes, "The likeness of his accomplishments is not found in many preceding centuries."
