[6906] 73 - (2722) It was narrated that Zaid bin Arqam said: "I do not tell you anything but that which the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said. He used to say: 'Allāhumma, inni a'ūdhu bika minal-ajzi wal-kasali, wal-jubni wal-bukhli, wal-harami wa 'adhābil-qabr. Allāhumma, āti nafsi taqwāhā, wa zakkihā anta khairu man zakkāhā, anta waliyyuhā wa mawlāhā. Allāhumma inni a'ūdhu bika min 'ilmi lā yanfa'u wa min qalbilla yakhsa'u, wa min nafsilla yashba'u, wa min da'watilla yustajābu lahā' (O Allāh, I seek refuge with You from helplessness, laziness, cowardice, miserliness, old age and the torment of the grave. O Allāh, grant my soul piety and purify it, for You are the best to purify it, You are its Guardian and its Lord. O Allāh, I seek refuge with You from knowledge that is not beneficial, a heart that is not humble (before You), a soul that is not satisfied and a prayer that is not answered)."
