Wazifa for Childless Couples – Seeking Blessings Through Dua
Having children is one of the greatest blessings of life, and for many married couples, becoming parents is a heartfelt dream. However, for some, the path to parenthood is filled with emotional challenges, unanswered questions, and deep longing. In Islam, while medical help is encouraged, we also believe in the immense power of dua (supplication) and wazifa (specific Quranic recitations and prayers) to seek Allah’s mercy and blessings.
This blog is dedicated to all childless couples yearning for a child. If you or someone you know is waiting for the blessing of a child, this spiritually uplifting guide is your source of hope, powerful wazaif, azkar, and online resources to bring ease to your heart and light to your soul.
The Power of Dua for Childless Couples
In the Holy Qur’an, we find stories of prophets and righteous individuals who faced the pain of childlessness yet turned to dua and were eventually blessed with righteous offspring.
“My Lord! Grant me from Yourself a good offspring. Indeed, You are the Hearer of supplication.”
(Surah Aal-e-Imran, 3:38)
This was the dua of Prophet Zakariya (A.S.), who longed for a child in his old age. Allah responded with the glad tidings of Prophet Yahya (A.S.). Such verses prove that nothing is impossible for Allah.
What is Wazifa?
Wazifa is a practice of reciting selected Quranic verses, Names of Allah (Asma-ul-Husna), and supplications with sincerity and consistency to seek specific blessings. For couples struggling with infertility or delays in conceiving, a wazifa can be a beautiful way to spiritually align oneself with Allah’s decree and mercy.
Powerful Wazifa for Childless Couples
Here is a tried and tested wazifa many Islamic scholars recommend for couples seeking children. It is best performed after Isha prayer or Tahajjud, a time when Allah descends to the lowest heaven and listens to supplications.
Wazifa #1 – Surah Al-Anbiya, Ayah 89
وَزَكَرِيَّا إِذْ نَادَىٰ رَبَّهُ رَبِّ لَا تَذَرْنِي فَرْدًا ۖ وَأَنتَ خَيْرُ ٱلْوَٰرِثِينَ
“Wa Zakariyya iz nada rabbahu Rabbi la tazarni fardan wa anta khayrul waritheen.”
Translation: “And Zakariya, when he called to his Lord, ‘My Lord, do not leave me alone [without offspring], and You are the best of inheritors.'”
