اللَّهُ اللَّهُ رَبِّي لَا أُشْرِكُ بِهِ شَيْئًا
Allahu Allahu Rabbi la ushriku bihi shay'a
Allah, Allah is my Lord. I do not associate anything with Him.
Said during times of calamity and distress. The repetition of "Allah, Allah" is not filler — it is a desperate call, like calling someone's name twice when you urgently need them. Then the reaffirmation of tawhid: "I do not associate anything with Him." In moments of crisis, people turn to all kinds of false hopes — superstition, astrology, desperation deals with the wrong people. This du'a refocuses you on the only One who can actually help.

O Allah, I am Your servant, the son of Your servant, the son of Your maidservant. My forelock is in Your hand. Your command over me is forever executed, and Your decree over me is just. I ask You by every Name belonging to You — which You have named Yourself with, or revealed in Your Book, or taught any of Your creation, or kept in the knowledge of the unseen with You — that You make the Quran the spring of my heart, the light of my chest, the departure of my grief, and the relief of my anxiety.
