Major Iranian news outlets, including the state news agency IRNA and IRGC-affiliated channels, observed the 19th day of the holy month of Ramadan by publishing the traditional daily prayer.
On March 9, 2026, coinciding with the 19th day of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, prominent Iranian media outlets uniformly observed the religious occasion by publishing the traditional daily supplication across their platforms. The posts reflect the standard practice of Iranian state and semi-official media integrating Islamic observances into their daily morning news broadcasts.
The IRGC News Channel, a Telegram outlet affiliated with Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, briefly announced the "Prayer for the nineteenth day of the month of Ramadan" to its followers. Similarly, the regional news outlet Khorasan Online published the full Arabic text of the daily prayer, which asks God to multiply the believer's share of blessings and smooth the path toward good deeds.
The official state news agency, IRNA, shared both the original Arabic supplication and its Farsi translation. Echoing the solemn and reverent tone of the holy month, the state-run agency translated the prayer as: "O Allah, in this month complete my share of its blessings, and pave my way towards its goodness, and do not deprive me of the acceptance of its good deeds, O Guide to the manifest truth."
The source messages consist entirely of daily religious observances rather than hard news reporting. The 19th of Ramadan is a particularly significant date in Shia Islam, marking the anniversary of the day Imam Ali was struck by a poisoned sword, though these specific texts focus solely on the standard daily Ramadan supplication. The English translation preserves the reverent, religious terminology used by the state media sources.
