Allāhumma raḥmataka arjū, fa-lā takilnī ilā nafsī ṭarfata ‘ayn, wa aṣliḥ lī sha’nī kullah, lā ilāha illā Ant.
Context
We relate in the Sunan of Abū Dāwūd that Abū Bakrah 
reported that the Mes senger of Allah 
said: “The du‘ā’ for people in difficulty to say is: O Allah, I hope for Your Mercy, so do not entrust me to myself for the blink of an eye. Put all my affairs right for me. There is no god but You.” [6].
