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.

Morning Dhikr of Dominion, Praise and Refuge

أَصْبَحْنَا وَأَصْبَحَ الْمُلْكُ لِلّٰهِ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ ، لَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا اللّٰهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيْكَ لَهُ ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ ، وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيْرٌ ، رَبِّ أَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَ مَا فِيْ هٰذَا الْيَوْمِ وَخَيْرَ مَا بَعْدَهُ ، وَأَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا فِيْ هٰذَا الْيَوْمِ وَشَرِّ مَا بَعْدَهُ ، رَبِّ أَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْكَسَلِ وَسُوْءِ الْكِبَرِ ، رَبِّ أَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنْ عَذَابٍ فِي النَّارِ وَعَذَابٍ فِي الْقَبْرِ.

We have entered the morning, and the dominion has entered the morning belonging to Allah, and all praise is for Allah. There is no god but Allah alone, with no partner. His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He has power over all things. My Lord, I ask You for the good of this day and the good of what follows it, and I seek refuge in You from the evil of this day and the evil of what follows it. My Lord, I seek refuge in You from laziness and the harm of old age. My Lord, I seek refuge in You from a punishment in the Fire and a punishment in the grave.

Aṣbaḥnā wa aṣbaḥa-l-mulku li-llāh, wa-l-ḥamdu li-llāh, lā ilāha illa-llāhu waḥdahu lā sharīka lah, lahu-l-mulku wa lahu-l-ḥamd, wa huwa ʿalā kulli shayʾin qadīr. Rabbi asʾaluka khayra mā fī hādhā-l-yawmi wa khayra mā baʿdah, wa aʿūdhu bika min sharri mā fī hādhā-l-yawmi wa sharri mā baʿdah. Rabbi aʿūdhu bika mina-l-kasali wa sūʾi-l-kibar. Rabbi aʿūdhu bika min ʿadhābin fī-n-nāri wa ʿadhābin fī-l-qabr.

اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ الْأَوَّلُ وَلَا شَيْءَ قَبْلَكَ، وَأَنْتَ الْآخِرُ لَا شَيْءَ بَعْدَكَ، أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ دَابَّةٍ نَاصِيَتُهَا بِيَدِكَ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْإِثْمِ وَالْكَسَلِ، وَمِنْ عَذَابِ النَّارِ وَمِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ، وَمِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْغِنَى وَمِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْفَقْرِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْمَأْثَمِ وَالْمَغْرَمِ، اللَّهُمَّ نَقِّ قَلْبِي مِنَ الْخَطَايَا كَمَا نَقَّيْتَ الثَّوْبَ الْأَبْيَضَ مِنَ الدَّنَسِ، اللَّهُمَّ بَعِّدْ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ خَطِيئَتِي كَمَا بَعَّدْتَ بَيْنَ الْمَشْرِقِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ

O Allah, You are the First and there is nothing before You, and You are the Last and there is nothing after You. I seek refuge in You from the evil of every creature whose forelock is in Your hand. I seek refuge in You from sin and laziness, from the punishment of the Fire and the punishment of the grave, from the trial of wealth and the trial of poverty. And I seek refuge in You from what leads to sin and from debt. O Allah, cleanse my heart of sins as You have cleansed the white garment of dirt. O Allah, put distance between me and my sin as You have put distance between the east and the west.
