We need to talk. Yes, you, sis. The one holding on to a situationship that’s got more red flags than a Formula 1 race. You know it’s haram. You know it’s draining your iman like an iPhone battery on 1%. And yet… here we are. But guess what? You’re not alone, and you’re not weak. You just need the right duas (and a little tough love).
Here are 7 powerful duas to help you cut ties with that “but-he’s-so-nice” haram love story and walk away like the strong Muslim queen you are. Ready? Let’s go.
1. Dua for Strength to Walk Away
Feeling weak? Here’s your soul’s energy drink:
“Our Lord, pour upon us patience and plant firmly our feet and give us victory over the disbelieving people.”
(Qur’an 2:250)
This dua was made by warriors before battle, and sis, let’s be real, leaving a haram relationship is a battle. One where your heart and desires are fighting against your faith. So, make this dua and walk away like a champion.
2. Dua to Replace Him With Someone Better (AKA Halal Bae)
Trust Allah’s upgrade system:
“My Lord, indeed I am in need of whatever good You send down to me.”
(Qur’an 28:24)
Musa (AS) made this dua, and not long after, Allah blessed him with a wife and a job. Translation? Allah’s got your back. You’re not losing a man; you’re making space for someone way better (aka a righteous husband who actually prays Fajr).
3. Dua to Make the Heart Forget Him
When he’s still living rent-free in your head:
“Our Lord, do not impose upon us that which we have no strength to bear.”
(Qur’an 2:286)
Let’s be real: heartbreak feels like trying to function on three hours of sleep. But Allah never burdens a soul beyond what it can handle. Keep making this dua, and soon, you’ll wonder why you ever stressed over that man who didn’t even know Surah Al-Fatihah by heart.
4. Dua to Remove the Attachment & Heal
When you miss the toxic energy:
“Oh Turner of hearts, keep my heart firm upon Your religion.”
(Tirmidhi, 2140)
Love is a powerful force, but so is self-respect. The moment you feel weak, recite this dua and remind yourself: you deserve a love that brings you closer to Allah, not one that’s dragging you into sin.
5. Dua for Self-Worth & Confidence
When you’re questioning if you’ll ever find love again:
“I am as My servant thinks I am.”
(Hadith Qudsi, Bukhari 7405)
Translation? Think highly of Allah, and He will give you the best. The moment you believe Allah has something greater planned, you’ll start radiating confidence. And let’s be real, confidence is attractive (and halal).
6. Dua for Inner Peace & Contentment
Because you’re tired of crying at 2 AM:
“Truly, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest.”
(Qur’an 13:28)
Listen, you don’t need closure from him; you need contentment from Allah. Recite this whenever the urge to text “I miss you” kicks in. Spoiler alert: you’ll feel a million times better.
7. Dua to Strengthen Your Iman & Move On Completely
When you’re ready for your glow-up:
“Our Lord, grant us from Yourself mercy and prepare for us from our affair right guidance.”
(Qur’an 18:10)
The real glow-up isn’t just a new hijab style or flawless skin, it’s a heart at peace with Allah. When you let go for His sake, He replaces what you lost with something better.
One Last Thing, Sis…
Leaving a haram relationship isn’t just about walking away, it’s about running toward Allah. And trust me, the peace you’ll feel after cutting ties? Unmatched. If you need help staying strong, consider picking up an Islamic self-development book like Purification of the Heart, it’ll give you the wisdom and emotional strength to move on for good.
