(the wife of the Prophet) Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to invoke Allah in the prayer saying "Allahumma inni aʿudhu bika min ʿadhabi l-qabr, wa aʿudhu bika min fitnati l-masihi d-dajjal, wa aʿudhu bika min fitnati l-mahya wa fitnati l-mamat. Allahumma inni aʿudhu bika mina l-ma'thami wa l-maghram. (O Allah, I seek refuge with You from the punishment of the grave, from the afflictions of the imposter- Messiah, and from the afflictions of life and death. O Allah, I seek refuge with You from sins and from debt)." Somebody said to him, "Why do you so frequently seek refuge with Allah from being in debt?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "A person in debt tells lies whenever he speaks, and breaks promises whenever he makes (them)." ʿAisha also narrated: I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ in his prayer seeking refuge with Allah from the afflictions of Ad-Dajjal.

The Apostle of Allah ﷺ used to supplicate in prayer thus:" O Allah! I seek refuge with Thee from the torment of the grave, and I seek refuge with Thee from the trial of the Masih al-Dajjal (Antichrist) and I seek refuge with Thee from the trial of life and death. O Allah! I seek refuge with Thee from sin and debt." She ('A'isha) reported: Someone said to him - (the Holy Prophet): Messenger of Allah! why is it that you so often seek refuge from debt? He said: When a (person) incurs debt, (he is obliged) to tell lies and break promise.
