Du’a to replace anxiety with peace
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي عَبْدُكَ، ابْنُ عَبْدِكَ، ابْنُ أَمَتِكَ، نَاصِيَتِي بِيَدِكَ، مَاضٍ فِي حُكْمُكَ، عَدْلٌ فِي قَضَاؤُكَ، أَسْأَلُكَ بِكُلِّ اسْمٍ هُوَ لَكَ سَمَّيْتَ بِهِ نَفْسَكَ، أَوْ أَنْزَلْتَهُ فِي كِتَابِكَ، أَوْ عَلَّمْتَهُ أَحَدًا مِنْ خَلْقِكَ، أَوِ اسْتَأْثَرْتَ بِهِ فِي عِلْمِ الْغَيْبِ عِنْدَكَ، أَنْ تَجْعَلَ الْقُرْآنَ رَبِيعَ قَلْبِي، وَنُورَ صَدْرِي، وَجَلَاءَ حُزْنِي، وَذَهَابَ هَمِّي
Allahumma inni 'abduka, ibnu 'abdika, ibnu amatika, naasiyati biyadika, maadin fi hukmuka, 'adlun fi qada'uka, as'aluka bikulli ismin huwa laka, sammayta bihi nafsaka, aw anzaltahu fi kitabika, aw 'allamtahu ahadan min khalqika, awi asta'tharta bihi fi 'ilm il-ghaybi 'indaka, an taj'al al-Qur'ana rabia' qalbi, wa noora sadri, wa jalaa'a huzni, wa dhahaaba hammi.
O Allah, I am Your slave. I am the child of Your male slave and the child of Your female slave, my forelock is in Your hand, Your judgment upon me is assured, Your decree concerning me is just. I ask You by every single name that You have named Yourself with, or that You have revealed in Your book, or taught to one of Your creation, or have completely kept in Your knowledge in the unseen, to make the Qur’an the spring of my heart, and the light of my chest, and let it be the banisher of my sadness and let it be the reliever of my anxiety.
Du’a for relief from worries and debts
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ الْهَمِّ وَالْحَزَنِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ الْعَجْزِ وَالْكَسَلِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ الْجُبْنِ وَالْبُخْلِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ غَلَبَةِ الدَّيْنِ، وَقَهْرِ الرِّجَالِ.
Allahumma inni a'oodhu bika min al-hammi wal-hazan, wa a'oodhu bika min al-'ajzi wal-kasal, wa a'oodhu bika min al-jubni wal-bukhl, wa a'oodhu bika min ghalabatid-dayni, wa qahrir-rijal.
O Allah, I seek refuge in You from anxiety and grief; and I seek refuge in You from inability and laziness; and I seek refuge in You from cowardice and from stinginess; and I seek refuge in You from being overcome by debt and from being overpowered by men.
اللّهُـمَّ لا سَـهْلَ إِلاّ ما جَعَلـتَهُ سَهـلاً، وَأَنْتَ تَجْـعَلُ الحَزْنَ إِذا شِـئْتَ سَهـْلاً
Allahumma la sahla illa ma ja‘altahu sahla, wa anta taj‘alul hazna idha shi’ta’ sahlan.
O Allah, there is no ease except in that which You have made easy, and You make grief if You wish easy. (Sahih Ibn Hibban, no. 2427)
اللّهُـمَّ اكْفِـني بِحَلالِـكَ عَنْ حَـرامِـك، وَأَغْنِـني بِفَضْـلِكِ عَمَّـنْ سِـواك
Allahumma ikfini bi-halalika 'an haramik, wa aghnini bi-fadlika 'amman siwak.
O Allah, suffice me with what You have allowed instead of what You have prohibited, and make me independent of all others beside You. (Jami’ al-Tirmidhi, no. 5/560)
