1555. Abū Sa’eed Al-Khudrī narrated: “One day, the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ entered the Masjid, and saw a person from the Anṣār by the name of Abū Umāmah. He said: ‘O Abū Umamah, why is it that I see you sitting in the Masjid even though this is not the time for prayer?’ He said: ‘(Because of) misery that has overtaken me, and debts, O Messenger of Allāh.' He said: 'Should I not teach you phrases that, if you said them, Allāh will remove your misery and repay your debt?' He said: 'Yes, O Messenger of Allāh!' So he said: 'Say in the morning and evening: "Allāhumma! Innī a'ūdhu bika min al-hammi wal-hazani, wa a'ūdhu bika minal-'ajzi wal-kasali, wa a'ūdhu bika min al-jubni wal-bukhli, wa a'ūdhu bika min ghalabatid-dain wa qahrir-rijāl (O Allāh! I seek refuge in You from griefs and anxieties. And I seek refuge in You from helplessness and laziness. And I seek refuge in You from cowardice and miserliness. And I seek refuge in You from the heaviness of debts, and the overpowering of men).'" He said: 'So I did that, and Allāh removed my sorrows, and fulfilled my debts.'" (Da'if)

1555 - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ الْغُدَانِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنَا غَسَّانُ بْنُ عَوْفٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا الْجُرَيْرِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي نَضْرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ: دَخَلَ رَسُولُ صَلَّى عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ الْمَسْجِدَ، فَإِذَا هُوَ بِرَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ، يُقَالُ لَهُ: أَبُو أُمَامَةَ، فَقَالَ: «يَا أُمَامَةَ، مَا لِي أَرَاكَ جَالِسًا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فِي غَيْرِ وَقْتِ الصَّلَاةِ؟»، قَالَ: هُمُومٌ لَزِمَتْنِي، وَدُيُونٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: «أَفَلَا أُعَلِّمُكَ كَلَامًا إِذَا أَنْتَ قُلْتَهُ أَذْهَبَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ هَمَّكَ، وَقَضَى عَنْكَ دَيْنَكَ؟»، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: بَلَى، يَا رَسُولَ، قَالَ: " قُلْ إِذَا أَصْبَحْتَ، وَإِذَا أَمْسَيْتَ: اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْهَمِّ وَالْحَزَنِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْعَجْزِ وَالْكَسَلِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْجُبْنِ وَالْبُخْلِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ غَلَبَةِ الدَّيْنِ، وَقَهْرِ الرِّجَالِ "، قَالَ: فَفَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ، فَأَذْهَبَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ هَمِّي، وَقَضَى عَنِّي دَيْنِي
