Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) says that I heard (and in another narration it is) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to supplicate with these words: «رب (وفي الرواية الأخرى: (اللهم أعني ولا تعن علي، وانصرني ولا تنصر علي، وامكر لي ولا تمكر علي، ويسر لي الهدى)) (وفي الأخرى: يسر الهدى إلي)، وانصرني على من بغى علي. رب اجعلني شكاراً لك، ذكاراً لك راهباً لك، مطواعاً لك، مخبتاً لك، أواهاً، منيباً تقبل توبتي واغسل حوبتي، وأجب دعوتي، وثبت حجتي، واهدِ قلبي، وسدد لساني، واسلل سخيمة قلبي» O my Lord! (and in another narration: O Allah!) Help me and do not help anyone against me, grant me victory and do not grant victory to anyone against me, plan for my good and do not plan against me, and make guidance easy for me, (and in another narration: make guidance easy towards me) and help me against those who oppress me. O my Lord! Make me grateful to You, one who remembers You, one who humbles himself before You, one who beseeches You for forgiveness for sins. Accept my repentance, wash away my sins, accept my supplication, establish my proof, guide my heart, make my tongue speak correctly, and remove malice from my heart.
