اللَّهُمَّ اسْتُرْ عَوْرَاتِي وَآمِنْ رَوْعَاتِي
Allahummmustur 'awrati wa amin raw'ati
O Allah, conceal my faults and calm my fears.
Part of a longer morning du'a. "'Awrat" means vulnerabilities — physical, moral, or social weaknesses you do not want exposed. "Raw'at" means fears and anxieties that shake your inner peace. This du'a asks for two things every human needs: dignity (keep my weaknesses hidden) and security (keep my heart at peace). Short, profound, and deeply personal.
