Missing Someone? Read This Prayer to Calm Your Heart

Dream - Missing someone is a normal thing experienced by humans. Whether it's missing a child, parents, friends, or a partner. Especially if that person is far away from us and rarely met.

Fortunately, there are now smartphones that help Dream friends to express their longing by calling, video calling, or chatting. However, meeting in person and looking into each other's eyes is definitely different.

One way to overcome longing taught in Islam is by praying. Yes, prayer is not only done when going to or after doing something. But when the heart is feeling restless, it is also necessary to pray, not least when missing someone.

So, what kind of prayer can be recited? Here are some prayers when missing someone as summarized by Dream from various sources.

Prayer when Missing Someone

Surah Yusuf Verse 4

In the Surah Yusuf, it contains the story of Prophet Yusuf. Every Muslim must know his story. Especially when he was reunited with Zulaikha. Prophet Yusuf is depicted as a handsome man who captivates many women.

However, in the end, the fate of Prophet Yusuf is Zulaikha, who is none other than a woman who has trapped and accused him.

In the Surah Yusuf, there is a verse that is believed to be able to overcome someone's longing. This prayer is often practiced by Prophet Yusuf when missing his wife, Zulaikha. Here is the recitation:

التانه باييانياته والانهين والاتينياني النيتاناهي التينياني نانتيهياني ميناته نانهينانياني الاتينياني النيتاناهي الاتينياني ميناته نانهيناني الاتينياني نانتيهياني.

Surah Taha Verse 39

In addition to Surah Yusuf, there is also another prayer that Dream friends can practice when feeling longing for someone. The prayer is in Surah Taha verse 39:
