Q: I have a 7 week old baby and I’m having trouble breastfeeding her. I wanted to know if there any dua or surah I can read to help. I can’t understand why is it so hard when it says in the Quraan that’s there right to be breast fed for 2 years. Please help.
A: Recite the following dua after your five daily Salaah.
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّى أَسْأَلُكَ الْعَافِيَةَ فِى الدُّنْيَا وَالآخِرَةِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّى أَسْأَلُكَ الْعَفْوَ وَالْعَافِيَةَ فِى دِينِى وَدُنْيَاىَ وَأَهْلِى وَمَالِى
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
