اللَّهُمَّ رَحْمَتَكَ أَرْجُو فَلَا تَكِلْنِي إِلَى نَفْسِي طَرْفَةَ عَيْنٍ وَأَصْلِحْ لِي شَأْنِي كُلَّهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ
Allahumma rahmataka arju, fa la takilni ila nafsi tarfata ayn, wa aslih li sha’ni kullah, la ilaha illa ant.
O Allah, I hope for Your mercy — do not leave me to myself for even the blink of an eye. Set all my affairs right; none is worthy of worship but You.
