Prayer for faith and guidance

عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ رَسُوْلَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَقُوْلُ

اَللّٰهُمَّ لَكَ أَسْلَمْتُ وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ وَعَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَإِلَيْكَ أَنَبْتُ وَبِكَ خَاصَمْتُ اَللّٰهُمَّ إِنِّیْ أَعُوذُ بِعِزَّتِكَ لَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ أَنْ تُضِلَّنِیْ أَنْتَ الْحَىُّ الَّذِیْ لَا يَمُوْتُ وَالْجِنُّ وَالْإِنْسُ يَمُوْتُوْنَ

Hazrat Ibn Abbas^ra narrates that the Holy Prophet^sa used to recite this prayer:

“O Allah, I have entrusted everything unto You, I believe in You, I trust in You and am inclined towards You. With Your name I face the enemy. O Allah, I seek refuge in Your Honour. There is none worthy of worship except You. Do not lead me astray. You are the Ever Living Being Who is Immortal, while human beings and jinns will perish ultimately.”

(Sahih Muslim, Kitab al-Zikr wa al-Du‘a wa al-Taubah wa al-Istighfar, Hadith 2717)
