Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I am a student of knowledge, and I attend these lessons, but I have worries and sorrows. He says: I am a student of knowledge, and I attend these lessons, but I have worries and sorrows, and he asks for your excellence to make du'a for him and to advise him.

Answer:
Ask Allah to relieve your worry and remove your sorrow. Allah is near and responsive. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) entered the mosque, he found one of the Companions sitting. He asked, "What is keeping you here?" He said, "Worries and debts have overwhelmed me, O Messenger of Allah." So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taught him a du'a to recite, and Allah relieved him. He said: "O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the hardship of the trial, from the onset of misery, from the evil of outcomes, from the taunting of the enemy, and from the oppression of debt. I seek refuge in You from weakness and laziness." This is the du'a that he taught. "O Allah, I seek refuge in You from weakness and laziness, from cowardice and stinginess, from the oppression of debt, and from the tyranny of men." So the man recited it, and Allah relieved him. Yes.
