Next time you walk in to the masjid, my advice is to say Aameen, Aameen, Aameen three times.

Allama Yusuf Binnori used to say Aameen thrice whenever he would enter the masjid. One day, a person asked him, “No-one is making dua so why are you saying Aameen when entering the Masjid?”

He replied that Rasulullah ﷺ said, “A person who stays in the masjid, (and he) does not talk about worldly matters and remains in the state of Wudhu whilst in the masjid, then the angels make dua ‘Oh Allah forgive him. Oh Allah have mercy on him’. I am saying Aameen to the dua of the angels.”

Therefore, next time you enter the Masjid say Aameen three times, for the angels are directly sent from Allah to make dua for you. An easy opportunity unmissable, for those who wish to acquire the mercy and forgiveness of Allah.
