Dua for ease and facilitation

ذِكْرُ مَا يُسْتَحَبُّ لِلْمَرْءِ سُؤَالُ الْبَارِي جَلَّ وَعَلَا تَسْهِيلَ الْأُمُورِ عَلَيْهِ إِذَا صَعُبَتْ

ibnhibban:974 – Muḥammad b. al-Musayyab b. Isḥāq > Muḥammad b. ʿAbdullāh b. ʿUbayd b. ʿAqīl > Sahl b. Ḥammād > Ḥammād b. Salamah > Thābit > Anas

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:

allāhumma lā sahlan illā mā jaʿaltahū sahlan, wa-anta tajʿal al-ḥazna sahlan idhā shiʾta

(O Allah, there is no ease except what You make easy, and You make the difficult easy if You Will.)

ابن حبّان:٩٧٤ – أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَهْلُ بْنُ حَمَّادٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ:

«اللَّهُمَّ لَا سَهْلَ إِلَّا مَا جَعَلْتَهُ سَهْلًا وَأَنْتَ تَجْعَلُ الْحَزْنَ سَهْلًا إِذَا شِئْتَ»
