Dear Imam Sahib, where can i find dua e ganjul arsh in quran in which surah? Why is Kaaba shareef covered with black cloth and what is its significance?

Answer

Respected Brother-in-Islam

Assalaamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullaahi Wa Barakaatuhu

1. Du'aa Ganjul Arsh is not in the Qur'aan or Hadith.
One may recite Du'aa Ganjul Arsh, but the virtues that are generally mentioned about reciting the Du'aa is not found in reliable sources of Shari 'ah. It is advisable to recite those Du'aas that are in the Qur'aan and Ahaadith.
2. The Ka'bah is covered with a cloth as a mark of respect.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
