Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that upon facing any hardship or affliction, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taught me this supplication, whose translation is: There is no deity except Allah, He is Most Forbearing and Most Merciful. Allah is free from every defect and imperfection. The Being of Allah is greatly blessed, He is the Lord of the Mighty Throne, and all praise is for Allah, the Lord of all the worlds.
