A New Day Dawns: A Commentary on Duʿaʾ al-Sabah

Duʿāʾ al-Ṣabāḥ is one of the beautiful supplications that have reached us from the nascent period of Islam. It is a duʿāʾ that is attributed to Amīr al-Muʾminīn ʿAlī ibn Abī Ṭālib (a), which is said to have been regularly recited by him after the dawn prayers. The eloquence of this supplication is such that scholars have stated that the duʿāʾ must surely be from an Infallible. Presented here is an original translation along with a commentary of this wonderful supplication, from which every esteemed reader is sure to benefit, God-willing.
