10 Heartbreaking But Necessary Duas to Help You Move On 

So, you’re here because you need to move on. Maybe he ghosted you after talking about marriage. Maybe you found out he was “just not ready” (translation: he was never serious). Maybe you’re trying to heal from a toxic situationship that lasted way longer than it should have. Whatever it is, sis, I see you. I feel you. And I promise, Allah sees you too.

But let’s be real, moving on is hard. It’s like deleting your Pinterest wedding board but in your heart. And while your besties will tell you to “just focus on yourself” (which is solid advice, btw), we both know that deep down, you need something stronger. You need duas, heartfelt, gut-wrenching, soul-cleansing duas that will pull you out of the emotional quicksand. So, grab some tissues, take a deep breath, and let’s dive in.

1. The Dua to Accept That It’s Over (Even If Your Brain Still Thinks He’ll Change)

“O Allah, if this person is not written for me, remove them from my heart and replace them with what is better for me.”

You already know the truth, sis. He’s not the one. So why does your heart still act like he’s the last good man on Earth? This dua is your way of saying, Ya Allah, I get it. He’s not my Qadr. But my heart is still in denial, help me let go! Trust that Allah removes people for a reason, even if you don’t see it yet.

2. The Dua for That Late-Night Weakness (When You’re About to Text Him “I Miss You”)

“O Turner of hearts, keep my heart firm on Your path.” (Tirmidhi)

There will be nights when you stare at your phone, debating whether to send a “casual” message (which, let’s be honest, is never casual). This dua will help you fight that urge and remember that your dignity is worth more than his attention.

3. The Dua to Heal From Emotional Damage (Because Therapy is Sunnah, But So Are Duas)

“O Allah, heal me from the wounds I cannot see, and grant me peace in my heart.”

Breakups (or whatever that thing was) leave scars. They mess with your self-worth. But sis, you are more than someone’s temporary entertainment. Make this dua with conviction, knowing that Allah is the best healer. And while we’re on the topic, if your heart is really struggling, therapy is absolutely an option. Islam encourages seeking help!

4. The Dua for Self-Respect (So You Never Settle for Less Again)

“O Allah, let me never desire something that is not meant for me, and let me never accept less than what I deserve.”

A hard truth? Sometimes we’re complicit in our own heartbreak. We ignore red flags. We accept mixed signals. We settle for “maybe” when we deserve “forever.” This dua will keep you grounded in self-worth, because, sis, you are not someone’s backup plan.

5. The Dua to Remove Someone From Your Heart (Because Blocking is Not Enough)

“O Allah, remove the love of this person from my heart, and replace it with love for You.”

Cutting contact is great, but what about the memories that replay in your mind like a tragic Bollywood montage? This dua is about making space in your heart for someone better, starting with your love for Allah.

6. The Dua for Strength (When You Feel Like You’ll Never Love Again)

“O Allah, grant me patience and strength to accept what I cannot change.”

Spoiler: You will love again. And when you do, it will be with someone who actually deserves you. This dua is your reminder that heartbreak is temporary, but Allah’s plan is forever.

7. The Dua to Stop Stalking His Socials (Seriously, Sis, Stop Checking Who Liked His Posts)

“O Allah, protect me from what is harmful, even when my heart desires it.”

Social media makes moving on ten times harder. Block, mute, unfollow, whatever it takes. Make this dua and let Allah guide you away from the self-inflicted heartbreak of overanalyzing his online presence.

8. The Dua for the Right One to Find You (Because You Deserve a Love That’s Halal & Forever)

“O Allah, grant me a spouse who will be the coolness of my eyes and a source of comfort in this life and the next.” (Quran 25:74)

You weren’t made to chase. The right person will come with ease, in a way that honors your worth. Trust Allah’s timing, even when it’s hard.

9. The Dua to Make Peace With the Past (And Finally Move Forward)

“O Allah, forgive me for my mistakes, and let me leave the past behind with dignity.”

Maybe you regret the time you wasted. Maybe you blame yourself for ignoring the signs. But remember, Allah’s mercy is bigger than your mistakes. Forgive yourself and keep it moving.

10. The Dua to Fall in Love With Yourself Again

“O Allah, let me see myself as You see me, and let me love myself as You have created me.”

You are not defined by someone’s inability to see your worth. You are loved. You are chosen. And you deserve the kind of love that doesn’t require you to prove your value. Start by loving yourself, the way Allah loves you.
