اللَّهُمَّ هَوِّنْ عَلَيْنَا سَفَرَنَا هَذَا وَاطْوِ عَنَّا بُعْدَهُ
Allahumma hawwin 'alayna safarana hadha watwi 'anna bu'dah
O Allah, make this journey easy for us, and fold up its distance for us.
Part of the comprehensive travel du'a the Prophet ﷺ would say when embarking on a journey. "Fold up its distance" is a beautiful metaphor — asking Allah to shorten what seems long.
