Assalamu Alaikum.
Twelve days in, and you're deep into the second phase now—the ten days of forgiveness.
Yesterday you opened the door. Today, you walk through it.
Here's The Prayer Time and Fasting Time for Ramadan Day 12
Day 12
Sunday, March 01, 2026
I know, the fast is getting slightly longer, but your soul is getting lighter.
Every day you fast, every prayer you complete, every verse you read—it's all lifting weight off your shoulders. Keep going.
You're doing better than you think.
1) Read These In The Morning: After Fajr
Morning Dua for Gratitude and Dependency
ุงููููููู ูู ู ูุง ุฃูุตูุจูุญู ุจูู ู ููู ููุนูู ูุฉู ุฃููู ุจูุฃูุญูุฏู ู ููู ุฎููููููู ููู ููููู ููุญูุฏููู ููุง ุดูุฑูููู ููููุ ูููููู ุงููุญูู ูุฏู ูููููู ุงูุดููููุฑู
Translation
O Allah, whatever blessing I or any of Your creation have received this morning is from You alone, without any partner. So to You belongs all praise and all thanks.
Significance
This dua (from Abu Dawud) is a powerful declaration of Tawheed and gratitude.
You're acknowledging that every single blessingโyour health, your family, your food, your ability to fastโcomes from Allah alone. When you start your day with this mindset, you stop taking things for granted.
You become more grateful. And gratitude is the key to contentment. The Prophet ๏ทบ said, "Whoever does not thank people has not thanked Allah." So thank Allah first, then thank the people He placed in your life.
Dua for Patience and Perseverance
ุงููููููู ูู ุฃูุนููููู ุนูููู ุฐูููุฑููู ููุดูููุฑููู ููุญูุณููู ุนูุจูุงุฏูุชููู
Translation
O Allah, help me to remember You, to thank You, and to worship You in the best way.
Significance
This is one of the most beautiful and concise duas (from Abu Dawud and An-Nasa'i).
The Prophet ๏ทบ taught this to Mu'adh ibn Jabal, telling him to say it after every prayer. But it's especially powerful in Ramadan when worship can feel overwhelming. You're not asking Allah to make things easyโyou're asking Him to help you do them well.
To remember Him constantly. To thank Him sincerely. To worship Him beautifully.
That's the difference between just completing Ramadan and truly transforming through it.
Ramadan Day 12 Special Dua

Translation
O Allah, on this day, beautify me with modesty and chastity, cover me with the garment of contentment and sufficiency, help me uphold justice and fairness, and grant me safety from all that I fear, by Your protection, O Protector of those who are afraid.
Significance
This is a comprehensive dua asking for four essential qualities.
First, modesty and chastityโnot just in your dress, but in your actions, your gaze, your speech, your intentions. Second, contentment and sufficiencyโbeing satisfied with what Allah has given you instead of constantly chasing more.
Third, justice and fairnessโtreating people with equity, even when it's hard. Fourth, protection from everything you fearโseen and unseen.
These four qualities build a strong, dignified character. Ask Allah to give them to you, and then work to embody them.
What to Read: Deep Into Juz 4
Today's Goal: Continue reading Juz 4, focusing on Surah Aal-e-Imran, particularly the verses about the Battle of Badr and trusting Allah's plan in difficult times.
These ayah tell the story of how Allah helped the believers when they were outnumbered and outmatched.
They had only 313 men against an army of 1,000.
But Allah sent angels to fight alongside them. The impossible became possible because they trusted Him completely.
When you read the verse, "And Allah has already made you victorious at Badr when you were few in number" (3:123), think about your own battles.
The struggles you're facing right now—whether spiritual, financial, emotional, or physical—might feel impossible.
But if Allah could turn 313 men into an unstoppable force, what can He do for you?
Trust Him.
He's already planning your victory.
Tip: Make a conscious effort today toward cultivating a heart that is present with Allah, even if you only have five minutes of quiet.
2) Your Specific Task: The "Patience Journal"
Today's task is about one of the most underrated forms of worship—Sabr (patience).
Your Task: Throughout the day, every time you feel frustrated, angry, impatient, or overwhelmed, pause and write down:
- What happened?
- How did I want to react?
- How did I actually react?
- What would patience look like in this situation?
For Example:
- What happened? Someone cut me off in traffic.
- How did I want to react? Honk, yell, get angry.
- How did I actually react? I took a deep breath and let it go.
- What would patience look like? Remembering that I'm fasting and this is a test. Saying "Alhamdulillah" and moving on.
Why?
The Prophet ๏ทบ said, "The strong person is not the one who can wrestle. The strong person is the one who controls himself when he is angry."
Ramadan is training you in self-control.
If you can control your stomach, you can control your emotions. If you can control your emotions, you can control your life.
3) The "Golden Hour" (The 15 Minutes Before Iftar)
You knkw the drill!
This is your daily appointment with Al-Ghafoor, the Most Forgiving.
Don't waste a second.
Here is Your Ramadan Day 12 Dua List:
- Ask Allah to forgive you for every moment you lost your patience—with people, with situations, with His decree.
- Pray for Allah to increase your Sabr and make it easy for you to stay calm in stressful situations.
- Ask Him to remove anger, bitterness, and resentment from your heart and replace it with peace, gratitude, and trust.
- Make dua for someone who tested your patience recently—ask Allah to guide them and bless them.
And make a deeply personal dua.
Something specific to your situation. Allah is listening.
He always is.
A Little Brotherly/Sisterly Advice for Day 12
People think patience means sitting back and accepting whatever happens.
Just taking it. Just enduring.
But that's not what Sabr means in Islam.
Real patience is active.
It's choosing to respond with dignity when you're provoked. It's choosing to stay calm when everything inside you is screaming.
It's choosing to trust Allah's plan even when it doesn't make sense.
The Prophet ๏ทบ said,
"Patience is at the first strike."
Meaning, real patience is in that first moment when something happens. When the anger surges. When the frustration hits.
When the bad news arrives.
That's the moment that defines you.
Anyone can be patient after they've calmed down. Anyone can forgive after they've cooled off.
But the person who controls themselves in the moment?
That's strength. That's real Iman.
And here's the beautiful part: every time you practice patience, you're not just avoiding sin—you're earning massive reward.
Allah says in the Quran, "Indeed, the patient will be given their reward without account" (Zumar 39:10).
Without account. Meaning unlimited. Uncountable. Beyond measure.
So the next time someone cuts you off, insults you, tests you, or frustrates you—pause. Take a breath. Remember you're fasting. Remember Allah is watching. And choose patience.
Because that one moment of self-control could outweigh years of other good deeds.
