Comfort to our eyes (a righteous family)

This is the du'a of the servants of the Most Merciful ('ibad ar-Rahman), described near the end of surah al-Furqan. In it you ask Allah to make your spouse and children a source of joy and peace to the eyes through their faith and uprightness, and to make you a good example for the God-fearing. Say it for your family and your marriage.

رَبَّنَا هَبْ لَنَا مِنْ أَزْوَاجِنَا وَذُرِّيَّاتِنَا قُرَّةَ أَعْيُنٍ وَاجْعَلْنَا لِلْمُتَّقِينَ إِمَامًا

Rabbanā hab lanā min azwājinā wa dhurriyyātinā qurrata aʿyunin wa-jʿalnā lil-muttaqīna imāmā

Our Lord, grant us from our spouses and our offspring comfort to our eyes, and make us a leader for the righteous.
