I'm feeling overwhelmed

Duʿā of the Prophet ﷺ in hardship:

يَا حَيُّ يَا قَيُّومُ، بِرَحْمَتِكَ أَسْتَغِيثُ

Transliteration:Yā Ḥayy, Yā Qayyūm, bi-raḥmatika astaghīth

Translation: “O Ever-Living, O Sustainer, by Your mercy I seek relief.”

Source: Mustadrak al-Ḥākim 1/730 (auth. by Ibn Hajar and al-Albānī)

Reflection: The Prophet ﷺ would say this when he felt burdened. Not with complaints, but with surrender. When you don’t have the strength, it’s okay to ask: Ya Allah, carry me.

Feeling something else?
