It was narrated from Abū Hurairah that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ used to say: "Allāhumma, innī a'ūdhu bika minal-faqrī wa a'ūdhu bika min al-qillati wadh-dhillati, wa a'ūdhu bika an azlima aw uzlam (O Allāh, I seek refuge with You from poverty, I seek refuge with You from want and humiliation, and I seek refuge with You from wronging others or being wronged.)" Al-Awzā'ī contradicted him. (Ṣaḥīḥ)
