Refuge from Worry, Debt and Weakness

اَللّٰهُمَّ إِنِّيْ أَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْهَمِّ وَالْحَزَنِ ، وَأَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْعَجْزِ وَالْكَسَلِ، وَأَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْجُبْنِ وَالْبُخْلِ ، وَأَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنْ غَلَبَةِ الدَّيْنِ وَقَهْرِ الرِّجَالِ.

O Allah, I seek refuge in You from worry and grief. I seek refuge in You from incapacity and laziness. I seek refuge in You from cowardice and miserliness. And I seek refuge in You from being overwhelmed by debt and from the domination of men.

Allāhumma innī aʿūdhu bika mina-l-hammi wa-l-ḥazan, wa aʿūdhu bika mina-l-ʿajzi wa-l-kasal, wa aʿūdhu bika mina-l-jubni wa-l-bukhl, wa aʿūdhu bika min ghalabati-d-dayni wa qahri-r-rijāl.

Dua for Obedience and Turning Away from Disobedience

اللَّهُمَّ أَعِنِّي عَلَى دِينِي بِدُنْيَا، وَعَلَى آخِرَتِي بِتَقْوَى، اللَّهُمَّ أَوْسِعْ عَلَيَّ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا، وَأَزْهِدْنِي فِيهَا، وَلَا تَزْوِهَا عَنِّي فَتُرَغِّبَنِي فِيهَا، اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ سَأَلْتَنِي مِنْ نَفْسِي مَا لَا أَمْلِكُهُ إِلَّا بِكَ، فَأَعْطِنِي مِنْهَا مَا يُرْضِيكَ مِنْهَا، اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ ثِقَتِي حِينَ يَنْقَطِعُ أَمَلِي مِنْ عَمَلِي، وَأَنْتَ رَجَائِي حِينَ يَسُوءُ ظَنِّي بِنَفْسِي، اللَّهُمَّ لَا تُخَيِّبْ طَمَعِي، وَلَا تَحَقُّقِ حَذَرِي، اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ أَخَذْتَ بِقَلْبِي وَنَاصِيَتِي فَلَمْ تُمَلِّكْنِي شَيْئًا مِنْهُمَا، فَكَمَا فَعَلْتَ ذَلِكَ بِهِمَا فَاهْدِنِي إِلَى سَوَاءِ السَّبِيلِ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّ عَزِيمَتَكَ عَزِيمَةٌ لَا تُرَدُّ، وَقَوْلُكَ قَوْلٌ لَا يَكْذِبُ، فَأْمُرْ طَاعَتَكَ فَلْتَحِلَّ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِنِّي أَبَدًا مَا بَقِيَتُ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّ عَزِيمَتَكَ عَزِيمَةٌ لَا تُرَدُّ، وَقَوْلُكَ قَوْلٌ لَا يَكْذِبُ، فَأْمُرْ مَعَاصِيكَ فَلْتَخْرُجْ مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِنِّي، ثُمَّ حَرِّمْ عَلَيْهَا الدُّخُولَ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِنِّي أَبَدًا مَا أَبْقَيْتَنِي يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ

O Allah, help me with my religion through some worldly means, and with my Hereafter through God-consciousness. O Allah, grant me abundance of the world and make me detached from it, and do not withhold it from me so that I would crave it. O Allah, You have asked of me from myself what I cannot control except through You, so grant me from it what pleases You. O Allah, You are my reliance when my hope in my deeds is cut off, and You are my hope when my opinion of myself turns bad. O Allah, do not disappoint my hope, and do not make my fear come true. O Allah, You have taken hold of my heart and my forelock, and You have not given me ownership of anything of them; so as You have done that with them, guide me to the straight path. O Allah, Your resolve is a resolve that is not turned back, and Your word is a word that does not lie; so command Your obedience to settle in every part of me, forever as long as I live. O Allah, Your resolve is a resolve that is not turned back, and Your word is a word that does not lie; so command Your acts of disobedience to leave every part of me, then forbid them from entering any part of me, forever as long as You keep me alive, O Most Merciful of those who show mercy.

Allāhumma aʿinnī ʿalā dīnī bi-dunyā, wa ʿalā ākhiratī bi-taqwā. Allāhumma awsiʿ ʿalayya mina-d-dunyā, wa azhidnī fīhā, wa lā tazwihā ʿannī fa-turaghghibanī fīhā. Allāhumma innaka saʾaltanī min nafsī mā lā amlikuhu illā bika, fa-aʿṭinī minhā mā yurḍīka minhā. Allāhumma anta thiqatī ḥīna yanqaṭiʿu amalī min ʿamalī, wa anta rajāʾī ḥīna yasūʾu ẓannī bi-nafsī. Allāhumma lā tukhayyib ṭamaʿī, wa lā taḥaqquqi ḥadharī. Allāhumma innaka akhadhta bi-qalbī wa nāṣiyatī fa-lam tumalliknī shayʾan minhumā, fa-kamā faʿalta dhālika bihimā fa-hdinī ilā sawāʾi-s-sabīli. Allāhumma inna ʿazīmataka ʿazīmatun lā turaddu, wa qawluka qawlun lā yakdhibu, fa-ʾmur ṭāʿataka fa-ltaḥilla fī kulli shayʾin minnī abadan mā baqītu. Allāhumma inna ʿazīmataka ʿazīmatun lā turaddu, wa qawluka qawlun lā yakdhibu, fa-ʾmur maʿāṣīka fa-ltakhruj min kulli shayʾin minnī, thumma ḥarrim ʿalayhā-d-dukhūla fī kulli shayʾin minnī abadan mā abqaytanī yā arḥama-r-rāḥimīna.
