Can you give us a duā for having children?

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

May Allah relieve your worries and depressions. Ameen

Every thing that happens is by the Will of Allah and we consign all our affairs to Him as only Allah knows what is best for us.

There are many couples who have conceived after a long time so do not give up and do not become despondent. At the same time, trust in Allah and know that whatever the end result it is best for you.

You and your husband can make the following duā seven times after every salāh along with salawāt [blessings] on Rasulullah (salallahu alayhi wa sallam) one time at the beginning and one time at the end [i]:

"My Lord, grant me from Yourself a good offspring. Indeed, You are the Hearer of supplication.”

['Āl `Imrān, 38]

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
