Dua Reminding of Allah's Vast Mercy
Source: Musnad Ahmad, graded Hasan
يَا حَيُّ يَا قَيُّومُ بِرَحْمَتِكَ أَسْتَغِيثُ أَصْلِحْ لِي شَأْنِي كُلَّهُ وَلَا تَكِلْنِي إِلَى نَفْسِي طَرْفَةَ عَيْنٍ
Transliteration
Ya Hayyu ya Qayyumu bi rahmatika astagheethu, aslih li sha'ni kullahu wa la takilni ila nafsi tarfata 'ayn
English Translation
"O Ever-Living, O Sustainer, by Your mercy I seek help. Set right all my affairs and do not leave me to myself even for the blink of an eye."
When to Recite This Dua
This dua captures the essence of the struggle: do not leave me to myself. When left to our own nafs, we are weak and prone to sin. This supplication asks Allah to take charge of all your affairs and never abandon you to your own devices. It is a profound admission of dependence on Allah that brings immense peace.
