428. Dua for hopelessness
قَدَرُ اللَّهِ وَمَا شَاءَ فَعَلَ
قَدَرُ اللّٰهِ وَمَا شَاءَ فَعَلَ
Qadarullaahi wa maa shaa'a fa'al
It is the Decree of Allah and He does whatever He wills.
Abu Huraira (RA) reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: A strong believer is better and is more lovable to Allah than a weak believer, and there is good in everyone, (but) cherish that which gives you benefit (in the Hereafter) and seek help from Allah and do not lose heart, and if anything (in the form of trouble) comes to you, don't say: If I had not done that, it would not have happened so and so, but say: (The dua is mentioned above) and your" if" opens the (gate) for the Satan.
429. When one's affairs have become difficult
اَللَّهُمَّ لَا سَهْلَ إِلَّا مَا جَعَلْتَهُ سَهْلًا وَأَنْتَ تَجْعَلُ الْحَزْنَ إِذَا شِئْتَ سَهْلًا
اَللّٰهُمَّ لَا سَهْلَ اِلَّا مَا جَعَلْتَهُ سَهْلًا وَاَنْتَ تَجْعَلُ الْحَزْنَ اِذَا شِئْتَ سَهْلًا
Allaahumma laa sahlaa illaa maa ja'altahu sahlaa, wa Anta taj'alul-hazna 'idhaa shi'ta sahlaa
O Allah, there is no ease other than what You make easy. If You want You ease sorrow.
