    As a parent, your love for your child is immeasurable, so deep that you’d find all means to shield them from harm. Every time they step out of the house, fall sick, or face life’s uncertainties, your heart trembles with worry. But Alhamdulillah, we are not left alone. Islam has given us the most powerful tools through adhkar and dua for children’s protection from harm from cradle to adult.

    Islam teaches us that dua (supplication) is a believer’s strongest weapon. The Prophet ﷺ showed us how to seek protection for our children through specific Quranic verses, prophetic invocations, and daily adhkar. So if you are looking for the recommended dua to protect your children from all sorts of harm, you are already reading the right article, but just make sure you finish reading it.

    As parents, we should all know that our children are not safe from spiritual attack or harm from any person or Jinn. If someone tries to harm you and discovers that you are well protected, the person might try you through your children. This is why you need to be very vigilant. Children are more vulnerable because their Fitrah is pure. Shaytan targets them through envy, whispers, and accidents, too.

    If there’s anything more precious than wealth, it is our children. Yet in Islam, children are an Amanah, a trust from Allah. A trust so weighty that it will be asked about on the Day of Judgment. Our Prophet ﷺ said..

    Indeed, every one of you is a shepherd, and every one of you is responsible for his flock…
    (Sahih al-Bukhari 893; Sahih Muslim 1829)

    And among the most critical responsibilities in this trust is their protection, both physical and spiritual. Their bodies may be safe by good monitoring, but how will you protect them from the envy of the jealous, the whispering of shayṭān, or the unseen touch of the jinn? It is the recommended dua for children’s protection from harm taught to us by our Prophet ﷺ. The question is that do you know the dua to protect your children?

    It’s obvious that most parents don’t know the recommended dua for children’s protection from harm. Some even see it as a big task, whereas it is part of your duty to your child. As Muslim parents, you need to make regular dua to protect your children and see it as an act of worship, an expression of rahmah (mercy), and a sign of your awareness of your duty before Allah.

    What’s the recommended dua for children’s protection from harm?

    Every loving parent wants to protect their child from harm, whether it’s visible or unseen. But what if I tell you that the most powerful dua for children’s protection from harm, which our Prophet Muhammad ﷺ used to do for his grandchildren? Learn it below and regularly recite this dua to protect your children from all sorts of harm.

    dua for children's protection from harm, Dua to protect your children

    Dua to protect your children from harm in Arabic:
    أُعِيذُكُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّةِ مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْطَانٍ وَهَامَّةٍ، وَمِنْ كُلِّ عَيْنٍ لَامَّةٍ

    Dua to protect your children from harm in  Transliteration:
    Uʿīdhukā bi-kalimātillāhi al-tāmmati min kulli shayṭānin wa hāmmah, wa min kulli ʿaynin lāmmah

    Dua to protect your children from harm in English:
    I seek protection for you in the Perfect Words of Allah from every devil, every poisonous creature, and from every evil eye that harms.

    Note that the above dua is when you are seeking protection for a single child in front of you. If they are two, you will change the “أُعِيذُكُ” to “أُعِيذُكُمَا” (Uʿīdhukumā), and if they are more than two in front of you, you will say “أُعِيذُكُمَ” (Uʿīdhukum)

    You must be very careful of the above notice. Just read it carefully and practise it. They are just simple words and represent singular, dual, and plural pronouns.

    Dua for healing when your child is sick

    When your child is ill, turn to this recommended prophetic dua. It’s a beautiful expression of trust in Allah’s healing power.

    اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ النَّاسِ، أَذْهِبِ البَأْسَ، اشْفِهِ، وَأَنْتَ الشَّافِي، لاَ شِفَاءَ إِلاَّ شِفَاؤُكَ، شِفَاءً لاَ يُغَادِرُ سَقَمًا

    Allahumma Rabban-nās, adhhib al-ba’sa, ishfi anta ash-Shāfī, lā shifā’a illā shifā’uk, shifā’an lā yughādiru saqaman

    O Allah, Lord of mankind, remove this suffering and heal (them), for You are the Healer. There is no healing but Your healing — a healing that leaves behind no illness.

    Benefits:

    • Brings spiritual healing alongside physical recovery
    • Provides emotional comfort to both parent and child

    Other recommended dua to protect your children from harm and evils

    Ayat al-Kursi (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:255) – The Greatest Verse in the Quran

    Allahu la ilaha illa Huwa, Al-Hayyul-Qayyum. La ta’khudhuhu sinatun wa la nawm. Lahu ma fis-samawati wa ma fil-ard. Man dhal-ladhi yashfa’u ‘indahu illa bi-idhnihi? Ya’lamu ma bayna aydihim wa ma khalfahum, wa la yuhituna bi shay’in min ‘ilmihi illa bima sha’a. Wasi’a kursiyyuhus-samawati wal-ard, wa la ya’uduhu hifzuhuma. Wa Huwal-‘Aliyyul-‘Atheem.

    Our Prophet said Whoever recites it (Ayat-al-Kursi) before sleeping, a protector from Allah will remain over him, and no shayṭān will come near him until morning.  (Sahih al-Bukhari 5010)

    Surah Al-Ikhlas, Al-Falaq and An-Naas

    Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Raheem. Qul huwa Allahu ahad. Allahus-samad. Lam yalid wa lam yoolad. Wa lam yakun lahu kufuwan ahad.

    Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Raheem. Qul a’udhu bi rabbil-falaq. Min sharri ma khalaq. Wa min sharri ghasiqin idha waqab. Wa min sharrin-naffathati fil-‘uqad. Wa min sharri hasidin idha hasad.

    Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Raheem. Qul a’udhu bi rabbin-nas. Malikin-nas. Ilahin-nas. Min sharril-waswasil-khannas. Alladhi yuwaswisu fee sudurin-nas. Minal-jinnati wan-nas.

    Aisha رضي الله عنها said that whenever the Prophet (ﷺ) went to bed every night, he used to cup his hands together and blow over it after reciting Surat Al-Ikhlas, Surat Al-Falaq and Surat An-Nas, and then rub his hands over whatever parts of his body he was able to rub, starting with his head, face and front of his body. He used to do that three times. (Sahih al-Bukhari 5017)

    All the above verses and surahs are powerful dua for children’s protection from harm recommended by our Prophet ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ himself used and recommended them as daily shields and duas for protection from evils that guard the believer morning and night. You can recite them, blow on your palms, and use them to rub your children.

    Additional Islamic practices to protect Children

    1.  Recite Surah Al-Baqarah at home: This powerful Surah drives away shayṭān. The Prophet ﷺ said:

    Do not turn your houses into graves. Verily, shayṭān does not enter the house where Surah al-Baqarah is recited. [Muslim 780]

    2. Keep kids indoors during Maghrib: The Prophet ﷺ warned that..

    dua for children's protection from harm, Dua to protect your children

    When the sun sets, keep your children indoors for the devils are out at that time. [Bukhari 3280]

    3. Teach your children the morning and evening adhkar
    Start young. Make morning and evening adhkar part of their bedtime stories, school runs, or breakfast routines. When you teach your child to seek Allah’s protection, you’re giving them armor even when you’re not around.

    Each dua to protect your children from harm that we mentioned in this article are more than just words, they are shields forged in divine mercy. They are gifts from Allah, passed to us through His Prophet ﷺ, and preserved by our scholars for generations to come.

    Use them often. Make them part of your child’s daily rhythm. Recite them along with them and rub the small ones that can’t do it personally by themselves with the protection verses before sleeping. This is highky recommended because the one who turns to Allah to protect his child has placed that child in the strongest hands possible.

    And whoever relies upon Allah, then He is sufficient for him.  (Surah At-Talaq 65:3)

    May Allah protect our children with His perfect words, guard them from all harm, and make them among the righteous. We ask Allah to make them among those who call upon Him with sincerity, live by the Sunnah, and lead the Ummah with Eeman. Aameen.
