💚 Distress & Anxiety

From Hisn al-Muslim — the Fortress of the Muslim

لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ الْعَظِيمُ الْحَلِيمُ، لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ، لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ رَبُّ السَّمَوَاتِ وَرَبُّ الْأَرْضِ وَرَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْكَرِيمِ

Lā ilāha illallāhul-ʿaẓīmul-ḥalīm

There is no deity but Allah, the Mighty, the Forbearing. There is no deity but Allah, Lord of the Magnificent Throne. (For times of distress.)

📖 Al-Bukhari & Muslim

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْهَمِّ وَالْحَزَنِ، وَالْعَجْزِ وَالْكَسَلِ، وَالْبُخْلِ وَالْجُبْنِ، وَضَلَعِ الدَّيْنِ وَغَلَبَةِ الرِّجَالِ

Allāhumma innī aʿūdhu bika minal-hammi wal-ḥazan

O Allah, I seek refuge in You from anxiety and grief, weakness and laziness, miserliness and cowardice, the burden of debt and being overpowered by men.

📖 Al-Bukhari 7/158

حَسْبُنَا اللَّهُ وَنِعْمَ الْوَكِيلُ

Ḥasbunallāhu wa niʿmal-wakīl

Allah is sufficient for us, and He is the best Disposer of affairs.

📖 Al-Bukhari · Al 'Imran 3:173

لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ سُبْحَانَكَ إِنِّي كُنْتُ مِنَ الظَّالِمِينَ

Lā ilāha illā anta subḥānaka innī kuntu minaẓ-ẓālimīn

There is no deity except You; exalted are You. Indeed, I have been of the wrongdoers. (The dua of Yunus عليه السلام.)

📖 Al-Anbiya 21:87

اللَّهُمَّ رَحْمَتَكَ أَرْجُو فَلَا تَكِلْنِي إِلَى نَفْسِي طَرْفَةَ عَيْنٍ، وَأَصْلِحْ لِي شَأْنِي كُلَّهُ، لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ

Allāhumma raḥmataka arjū falā takilnī ilā nafsī ṭarfata ʿayn

O Allah, it is Your mercy I hope for, so do not leave me to myself even for the blink of an eye, and rectify all my affairs. There is no deity but You.

📖 Abu Dawud 4/324
