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

|
|
Alternate dua

The Qur'an states that these words were recited when Yunus (A.S.) called upon Allah from the belly of the fish. Prophet Mohammad (S.A.W.) stated in a hadith that when any Muslim makes this dua via these words to Allah, then Allah surely accepts his duas.
(Tirmidhi etc)
|
|
It is stated in a hadith that
|
|
لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ
|
|
is the medicine for 99 ailments, the least of which is depression.
(Baihaqi in Dawatul Kubra)
|
|
It means that these words are so beneficial and useful that big/great grievances, depression and sorrow are easily removed in its stride.
|
|
Abdullah bin Abbas (R.A.) narrates that Prophet Mohammad (S.A.W.) stated that if a person constantly makes "Astaghfar", then Allah removes every difficulty, frees him from every sorrow and makes a means for him to receive sustencance from places that he never thought of.
(Mishkat from Ahmad)
When tired of life
|
|
Due to difficulty death is sought but one should never pray for death instead pray this:
|
اللَّهُمَّ أَحْيِنِي مَا كَانَتِ الْحَيَاةُ خَيْرٌ لِي وَتَوَفَّنِي إِذَا كَانَتِ الْوَفَاةُ خَيْرَاً لِي
|
|
"O Allah keep me alive as long as is good for me and when death is better for me lift me".
(Mishkat)
