The Urdu tarjuma above is a simple meaning, not a word-for-word copy of the Arabic. The words in brackets show what is understood from the context.

English Meaning and Word by Word

• Bi = with / in
• Ism = name
• Allah = Allah
• As-salam = peace
• Alaikum = upon you

Full meaning: “In the name of Allah. Peace be upon you.” It is short, but it turns an ordinary moment into worship and a source of blessing for the whole household.

Source: Quran and Sahih Hadith

The Quran (Surah An-Nur 24:61). Allah teaches the believers to give salam when they enter homes:

Meaning: “So when you enter houses, greet one another with a greeting from Allah, blessed and good.” You can read the full verse with translations on Quran.com (Surah An-Nur 24:61).

Sahih Muslim 2018. The Prophet ﷺ said that when a person enters his house and remembers Allah on entering and at his meal, Shaitan says to his companions: you have no place to stay and no dinner here. If he does not remember Allah when entering, Shaitan says: you have found a place to stay. Read it on Sunnah.com (Sahih Muslim 2018a).

Sahih Muslim 253. Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) was asked what the Prophet ﷺ did first when he entered his house. She said: the siwak (miswak). See Sunnah.com (Sahih Muslim 253a).

A Note on the Longer Dua

Some books and websites quote a longer ghar mein dakhil hone ki dua that begins “Allahumma inni as’aluka khairal mawlaj” and includes “Bismillahi walajna”. It is reported in Sunan Abu Dawud.

Hadith scholars differ on the strength of its chain, and several graded it weak. For that reason this page focuses on what is clearly authentic: Bismillah and salam. If you already read the longer words, ask a trusted local scholar for guidance.

When and How to Read Ghar Mein Dakhil Hone Ki Dua

• Say Bismillah as you step inside, before you get busy with your phone or other things.
• Give salam to your family loudly enough for them to hear. This spreads love, as the Quran calls it a blessed greeting.
• If the house is empty, you can still say Bismillah; many scholars also advise giving salam on entering an empty home, based on the general words of Surah An-Nur 24:61.
• Use the miswak or brush your teeth when you come home, following Sahih Muslim 253.
• Remember Allah again before eating, because the same hadith (Muslim 2018) links entering and eating.

When visiting someone else’s home, first ask permission and greet them, as taught in Surah An-Nur 24:27. Then enter with Bismillah.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Walking in silently: the hadith shows that entering without remembering Allah gives Shaitan a place to stay.
• Mixing up the duas: the dua for leaving home (“Bismillahi tawakkaltu alallah”) is different from the ghar mein dakhil hone ki dua.
• Rushed pronunciation: say “Assalamu Alaikum” clearly, not “slamalekum”.
• Treating it as a magic formula: the words are a sincere remembrance of Allah, not a charm. Say them with presence of heart.

Teaching Children the Sunnah

Children learn the ghar mein dakhil hone ki dua fastest by copying parents. Say “Bismillah, Assalamu Alaikum” every time you come home, and reply warmly when they greet you.

Make it a family habit: whoever enters first gives salam, and everyone else replies “Wa Alaikum Assalam”. Within a few weeks it becomes automatic.
