Making dua for a long life
Question
Please could you advise if making dua for a long life is allowed in Islam? What is the ayat to be read from the Quran that saves you from death for that day?
Answer
Yes, du`aa for long life with barkat.
We do not know of any such aayat.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
