Innaka 'ala ma-tasha'-u qadeer wa anta hasbun-allahu wa na'mal
wakeel.

O Allah! Make useful for me what You taught me and teach me
knowledge that will be useful to me.

O Allah! I ask You for the understanding of the prophets and
the memory of the messengers, and those nearest to You.

with consciousness of You.

O Allah!) You do whatever You wish, and You are my Availer and
Protector and the best of aid.

wal-kasali wal-bukhli wal-jubni,wa dal'id-dayni wa ghalabatir-
rajaal.

O Allah! I seek refuge in You from anxiety and sorrow, weakness
and laziness, miserliness and cowardice, the burden of debts and
from being oppressed by men.

5) DUA FOR DISTRESS

Allahumma rahmataka arjoo falaa takilnee ilaa nafsee tarfata
'aynin wa aslih-lee sha'nee kullahu, laa ilaha illa anta.

O Allah! It is Your mercy that I hope for so do not leave me in charge
of my affairs even for a blink of an eye and rectify for me all of my
affairs. None has the right to be worshiped except You.

"Seek knowledge, because seeking it for the sake of Allah is a worship. And knowing it makes you more God-fearing; and searching for it is jihad, teaching it to those who do not know is charity, reviewing and learning it more is like tasbeeh. Through knowledge Allah will be known and worshiped. With the knowledge Allah will elevate people and make them leaders and imams, who will in turn guide other people."

* Ibn Taymiyya *
