Supplications for trials and hardship

اللّهُـمَّ إِنِّي عَبْـدُكَ ابْنُ عَبْـدِكَ ابْنُ أَمَتِـكَ نَاصِيَتِي بِيَـدِكَ، مَاضٍ فِيَّ حُكْمُكَ، عَدْلٌ فِيَّ قَضَاؤكَ أَسْأَلُـكَ بِكُلِّ اسْمٍ هُوَ لَكَ سَمَّـيْتَ بِهِ نَفْسَكَ أِوْ أَنْزَلْتَـهُ فِي كِتَابِكَ، أَوْ عَلَّمْـتَهُ أَحَداً مِنْ خَلْقِـكَ أَوِ اسْتَـأْثَرْتَ بِهِ فِي عِلْمِ الغَيْـبِ عِنْـدَكَ أَنْ تَجْـعَلَ القُرْآنَ رَبِيـعَ قَلْبِـي، وَنورَ صَـدْرِي وجَلَاءَ حُـزْنِي وذَهَابَ هَمِّـي

Allâhumma innî `abduka, ibnu `abdika, ibnu amatika. Nâsiyatî bi-yadika. Mâdin fiyya hukmuka, `adlun fiyya qadâ'uka. As'aluka bi-kulli smin huwa laka, sammayta bihi nafsaka, aw anzaltahu fî kitâbika, aw `allamtahu ahadan min khalqika, aw ista'tharta bihi fî `ilmi-l-ghaybi `indaka, an taj`ala-l-qur'âna rabî`a qalbî, wa nûra ssadrî, wa jalâ'a huznî, wa dhahâba hammî.

O Allah, I am Your servant, son of Your servant, son of Your maidservant, my forelock is in Your hand (i.e. You have total mastery over), Your command over me is forever executed and Your decree over me is just. I ask You by every name belonging to You which You named Yourself with, or revealed in Your Book, or You taught to any of Your creation, or You have preserved in the knowledge of the unseen with You, that You make the Quran the life of my heart and the light of my breast, and a departure for my sorrow and a release for my anxiety.

اللّهُـمَّ إِنِّي أَعْوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الهَـمِّ وَ الْحُـزْنِ، والعًجْـزِ والكَسَلِ والبُخْـلِ والجُـبْنِ، وضَلْـعِ الـدَّيْنِ وغَلَبَـةِ الرِّجال

Allâhumma innî a`ûdhu bika mina-l-hammi wa-l-hazani, wa-l-`ajzi wa-l-kasali, wa-l-bukhli wa-l-jubni, wa dala`i d-dayni wa ghalabati r-rijâl.

O Allah, I take refuge in You from anxiety and sorrow, weakness and laziness, miserliness and cowardice, the burden of debts and from being over powered by men.

لَا إلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ الْعَظـيمُ الْحَلِـيمْ، لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ رَبُّ العَـرْشِ العَظِيـمِ، لَا إِلَـهَ إِلَّا اللَّهْ رَبُّ السَّمَـوّاتِ ورّبُّ الأَرْضِ ورَبُّ العَرْشِ الكَـريم

Lâ ilâha illâ l-lâhu-l-`azîmu-l-halîmu. Lâ ilâha illâ l-lâhu, rabbu-l-`arshi-l-`azîm. Lâ ilâha illâ l-lâhu, rabbu s-samâwâti wa rabbu-l-ardi wa rabbu-l-`arshi-l-karîm.

None has the right to be worshipped except Allah Forbearing. None has the right to be worshipped except Allah, Lord of the magnificent throne. None has the right to be worshipped except Allah, Lord of the heavens, Lord of the Earth and Lord of the noble throne.

اللَّهُمَّ اكْفِنِي بِحَلالِكَ عَنْ حَرَامِكَ وَأَغْنِنِي بِفَضْلِكَ عَمَّنْ سِوَاكَ

Allâhumma kfinî bi-halâlika `an harâmika wa ghninî bi-fadlika `amman siwâk.

O Allah, make what is lawful enough for me, as opposed to what is unlawful, and spare me by Your grace, of need of others.

أَعـوذُ بِاللهِ مِنَ الشَّيْـطانِ الرَّجيـم

A`ûdhu bi-l-lâhi mina sh-shaytâni r-rajîm.

I take refuge with Allah from the accursed devil.

اللّهُـمَّ بارِك عَلَـيه

Allâhumma bârik `alayhi.

If you see anything of your brother that pleases you, or of his person or of his property [then ask Allah to bless him in it] for the envious eye is real.

لا إلهَ إلاّ اللّهُ

Lâ ilâha illâ l-lâhu.

None has the right to be worshipped except Allah.
