حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا سُكَيْنُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي ، أَنَّ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ حَدَّثَهُ ، قَالَ : مَنْ نَزَلَ بِهِ هَمٌّ أَوْ غَمٌّ أَوْ كَرْبٌ أَوْ خَافَ مِنْ سُلْطَانٍ ، فَدَعَا بِهَؤُلاءِ اسْتُجِيبَ لَهُ : ”أَسْأَلُكَ بِلا إِلَهَ إِلا أَنْتَ ، رَبُّ السَّمَاوَاتِ السَّبْعِ ، وَرَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ بِلا إِلَهَ إِلا أَنْتَ ، رَبُّ السَّمَاوَاتِ السَّبْعِ ، وَرَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْكَرِيمِ ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ بِلا إِلَهَ إِلا أَنْتَ رَبُّ السَّمَاوَاتِ السَّبْعِ وَالأَرَضِينَ السَّبْعِ وَمَا فِيهِنَّ ، إِنَّكَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ“، ثُمَّ سَلِ اللَّهَ حَاجَتَكَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) that he said: Whoever is afflicted with any distress, grief, or anxiety, or fears the oppression of a king, should supplicate with these words, and the supplication will surely be accepted: "I ask You by the means of «لا إله إلا أنت», who is the Lord of the seven heavens and the Lord of the Mighty Throne. And I ask You by the means of «لا إله إلا أنت», who is the Lord of the seven heavens and the Lord of the Noble Throne. And I ask You by the means of «لا إله إلا أنت», who is the Lord of the seven heavens and the seven earths and whatever is in them. Indeed, You have power over all things." Then he should ask Allah Almighty for his need.
