The Supplication for When Things Become Difficult for a Person

From Anas that The Messenger of Allaah sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam said:

“O Allaah there is nothing that is easy except that You made it easy, and You can make this difficulty easy if You so wish to”

اللهم لا سهلَ إلا ما جعلتَه سهلاً وأنتَ تجعلُ الحزنَ إذا شئتَ سهلاً

Allaahumma la sahala illa ma ja’alta sahlan wa anta taj’all al-huzna itha shitta sahlan

Collected by Ibn Hibban in ‘Saheeh’, Ibn Sunni, and ad-Deeya in ‘al-Mukhtar’ and shaykh Albani declared it Saheeh upon the conditions of Muslim. [Taken from ‘Silsilah Ahadeeth As-Saheehah’ vol.6 hadeeth no. 2886 p.902]

Supplicating to Allah in the English language

Question: Is it permissible to say Du`a’ (supplication) in English?

Answer: It is permissible for a Muslim to supplicate to Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He) in any language they speak, whether it is Arabic, English, Urdu, or any other language.

May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
