'O Allah, protect me from the evil of my sight and hearing, my tongue, my heart, and the evil of my desire.'"
عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ عَلِّمْنِي دُعَاءً أَنْتَفِعُ بِهِ قَالَ قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ عَافِنِي مِنْ شَرِّ سَمْعِي وَبَصَرِي وَلِسَانِي وَقَلْبِي وَشَرِّ مَنِيِّي
'Abdullah ibn 'Abbas reported that the Messenger of Allah may Allah bless him and grant him peace, used to say, "O Allah, help me and do not help against me. Support me and do not support anyone against me. Make guidance easy for me."
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ أَعِنِّي وَلاَ تُعِنْ عَلَيَّ وَانْصُرْنِي وَلاَ تَنْصُرْ عَلَيَّ وَيَسِّرِ الْهُدَى لِي
'O Allah, help me and do not help anyone against me. Devise for me and do not devise against me. Make guidance easy for me. Avert from me the one who attacks me. O Lord, make me grateful to You, remember You, fearful of You, obedient to You and humble to You, supplicating, penitent. Accept my repentance. Wash away my wrong actions and answer my supplication. Establish my proof and guide my heart. Make my tongue correct and make resentment flow out of my heart.'"
سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَدْعُو بِهَذَا رَبِّ أَعِنِّي وَلاَ تُعِنْ عَلَيَّ وَانْصُرْنِي وَلاَ تَنْصُرْ عَلَيَّ وَامْكُرْ لِي وَلاَ تَمْكُرْ عَلَيَّ وَيَسِّرْ لِيَ الْهُدَى وَانْصُرْنِي عَلَى مَنْ بَغَى عَلَيَّ رَبِّ اجْعَلْنِي شَكَّارًا لَكَ ذَكَّارًا لَكَ رَاهِبًا لَكَ مِطْوَاعًا لَكَ مُخْبِتًا لَكَ أَوَّاهًا مُنِيبًا تَقَبَّلْ تَوْبَتِي وَاغْسِلْ حَوْبَتِي وَأَجِبْ دَعْوَتِي وَثَبِّتْ حُجَّتِي وَاهْدِ قَلْبِي وَسَدِّدْ لِسَانِي وَاسْلُلْ سَخِيمَةَ قَلْبِي
Mu'awiya ibn Abi Sufyan said on the minbar, "None can withhold what You give nor give what Allah withholds. The effort of a person who makes an effort does not benefit him. When Allah desires good for a person, He gives him understanding in the deen." He added, "I heard these words from the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace."
سَمِعْتُ هَؤُلاَءِ الْكَلِمَاتِ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ عَلَى هَذِهِ الأعْوَادِ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ أَوْثَقَ الدُّعَاءِ أَنْ تَقُولَ اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ رَبِّي وَأَنَا عَبْدُكَ ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي وَاعْتَرَفْتُ بِذَنْبِي لاَ يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي
'O Allah, make my deen correct - it is the support of my affairs. Make my deen correct - it contains my livelihood. Make death a mercy for me from every evil.'"
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَدْعُو اللَّهُمَّ أَصْلِحْ لِي دِينِي الَّذِي هُوَ عِصْمَةُ أَمْرِي وَأَصْلِحْ لِي دُنْيَايَ الَّتِي فِيهَا مَعَاشِي وَاجْعَلِ الْمَوْتَ رَحْمَةً لِي مِنْ كُلِّ سُوءٍ أَوْ كَمَا قَالَ

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ كَانَ مِنْ دُعَاءِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي مَا قَدَّمْتُ وَمَا أَخَّرْتُ وَمَا أَسْرَرْتُ وَمَا أَعْلَنْتُ وَمَا أَنْتَ أَعْلَمُ بِهِ مِنِّي إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْمُقَدَّمُ وَالْمُؤَخِّرُ لا إِلَهَ إِلا أَنْتَ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ طَهِّرْنِي بِالثَّلْجِ وَالْبَرَدِ وَالْمَاءِ الْبَارِدِ كَمَا يُطَهَّرُ الثَّوْبُ الدَّنِسُ مِنَ الْوَسَخِ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّنَا لَكَ الْحَمْدُ مِلْءَ السَّمَاءِ وَمِلْءَ الأَرْضِ وَمِلْءَ مَا شِئْتَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ بَعْدُ
