2nd Dua for Removes Stress
The second Dua that he taught us, Anas ibn Malik says the prophet صَلَّى ٱللَّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ taught us this Dua
اللَّهُمَّ لَا سَهْلَ إلاَّ مَا جَعَلْتَهُ سَهْلاً، وأنْتَ تَجْعَلُ الحَزْنَ إذَا شِئْتَ سَهْلاً
allahumma la sahla illa ma ja’altahu sahla, wa-anta taja’alul-hazna iza syi’ta sahla
Oh Allah, nothing is easy except if you have made it easy. nothing is easy except what you make easy, and Oh Allah if you want you can change my Huzun, my grief into that which is easy, so Allah change my grief into that which is ease for me, this is the second Dua that our Prophet صَلَّى ٱللَّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ taught us and the final one that was mention because time is limited and this is a beautiful Dua that’s a very long one that our Prophet صَلَّى ٱللَّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ explicitly taught this Dua and he taught it like the sahaba said as he would teach a verse from the Quran and it’s a very long Dua and it begins as follows that our Prophet صَلَّى ٱللَّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ said never does a servant feel anxiety or feel stress and he makes this Dua except that Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ will get rid of his anxiety and change his stress for something that will be source of Happiness.
we are literally being told never does a servant of Allah make this Dua when he’s stressed out except that, Allah will change that stress and convert into a time of Happiness, a time of ease, it’s a long Dua.
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي عَبْدُكَ ، وَابْنُ عَبْدِكَ ، وَابْنُ أَمَتِكَ ، نَاصِيَتِي بِيَدِكَ ، مَاضٍ فِيَّ حُكْمُكَ ، عَدْلٌ فِيَّ قَضَاؤُكَ ، أَسْأَلُكَ بِكُلِّ اسْمٍ هُوَ لَكَ سَمَّيْتَ بِهِ نَفْسَكَ ، أَوْ عَلَّمْتَهُ أَحَدًا مِنْ خَلْقِكَ ، أَوْ أَنْزَلْتَهُ فِي كِتَابِكَ ، أَوْ اسْتَأْثَرْتَ بِهِ فِي عِلْمِ الْغَيْبِ عِنْدَكَ ، أَنْ تَجْعَلَ الْقُرْآنَ رَبِيعَ قَلْبِي ، وَنُورَ صَدْرِي ، وَجِلاءَ حُزْنِي ، وَذَهَابَ هَمِّي
Allahumma inniabduka wa ibn
abdika wa ibn amatika, nasiyati bi yadika, madin fiyya hukmuka, adlun fiyya qada’uka, as’aluka bi kulli ismin huwa laka sammayta bihi nafsaka aw anzaltahu fi kitabika awallamtahu ahadan min khalqika aw ista’tharta bihi fiilm il-ghaybi
indak an tajala Al-Qur’ana rabi
qalbi wa nur sadri wa jala’a huzni wa dhahaba hammi
its a long Dua basically summarizes that we ask Allah who controls everything, we ask Allah by the one who has sent down names to his servants and chosen names for himself that he has not revealed to his creation we ask Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ by every single name of his that he makes the Quran a source of happiness for our souls and a source of Enlightenment for our eyes.
So we ask Allah through the Quran to bring us happiness the prophet صَلَّى ٱللَّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ said whoever makes this Dua Allah will substitute his grief and his anxiety and convert it into a source of Happiness.
The sahaba said o messenger of Allah shouldn’t we memorize this Dua and our Prophet صَلَّى ٱللَّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ said yes whoever hears this should memorize this Dua.
So memorize this Dua it’s the beautiful Dua that is said at times of stress and be optimistic that insha Allah the source of grief and stress will be substituted quickly swiftly with a source of happiness and peace.
