Duaa for distress and Sorrow

Astaghfirullāha.
I seek forgiveness from Allah.

Fuḍālah bin 'Ubaid (r.a) narrated, 'The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said, 'Man is protected from every trial so long as he continues to seek forgiveness.'

There is no true deity except Allah.

The Prophet (s.a.w) said, 'Whoever says:

There is no true deity except Allah.
It will become a source of salvation for him at some point in time and whatever he suffered before that has been suffered.' [Silsilah al-Ṣaḥīḥah: 1932]

Lā Ḥawla wa lā quwwata illā billāhi. There is no power or might except with Allah

Abū Hurairah (r.a) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said to me, 'Should I not teach you some words that are from under the Throne and from amongst the treasures of Paradise? Say,
There is no power or might except with Allah.'

ḤasbunAllahu wa ni'mal Wakīl.

Sufficient for us is Allah, and [He is] the best Disposer of affairs.

Ibn Abbās (r.a) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said,

'The words, Sufficient for us is Allah, and [He is] the best Disposer of affairs", was uttered by Ibrāhīm (a.s) when he was thrown in the fire.

It was also uttered by Muḥammad (s.a.w) when the people said to frighten the believers,

'A great army is gathering against you, therefore, fear them,' but it only increased their faith and they said:

'Allah is Sufficient for us, and He is the Best Disposer of Affairs.' [Āli 'Imrān: 173][Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī: 4563]

O Allah, forgive me and have mercy on me and grant me well-being and provide for me.

Abū Mālik (r.a) narrated from his father that he heard that a man came to the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) and said,
'O Messenger of Allah (s.a.w)! How should I call upon my Lord?'

He (S.A.W) said, 'Join all your fingers together except for the thumb and pray:

O Allah, forgive me and have mercy on me and grant me well-being and provide for me. Certainly, these words will amass your world and your hereafter.' [Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim: 6851]
