Remembrance of Allah in all Conditions
Allah Almighty says in the Qur'an:
"When my servants ask you concerning me, (tell them) I am indeed close (to them). I listen to the prayer of every suppliant when he calls on me." [2:186]
The place of duaa is so high to Allah, that the Prophet had said:
"Nothing is more honourable to Allah the Most High than du`a."
[Sahih al-Jami` no.5268].
He also said: "The most excellent worship is du`a."
[Sahih Al-Jami` no. 1133];
"If one does not ask Allah, He will get angry with him."
[Sahih al-Jami` no.2414]

Why our Du'as are not answered
by ibn Rajab al Hanbali
from Khushu' fis-salah
Ibrahim ibn Adham - may Allah have mercy on
him - a third century scholar, a teacher and a
companion of Sufyan ath-Thawri, was asked
about the saying of Allah - the Most High:
"and your Lord says: "Call on me I will answer
your prayer..."
[40:60]
"We supplicate and we are not answered."
So he said to them:
You know Allah,
Yet you do not obey Him,
You recite the Qur'an,
Yet do not act according to it,
You know Shaitan,
Yet you have agreed with him,
You proclaim that you love Muhammad
Yet you abandon his Sunnah,
You proclaim your love for Paradise,
Yet you do not act to gain it,
You proclaim your fear the Fire,
Yet you do not prevent yourselves from sins,
You say "Indeed death is true",
Yet you have not prepared for it,
You point out the faults with others,
Yet you do not look at your faults,
You eat of that which Allah has provided for you,
Yet you do not thank Him,
You bury your dead,
Yet you do not take a lesson from it."

Duas for Health
and
Well-being
"رَبَّهُ أَنِّي مَسَّنِيَ الضُّرُّ وَأَنتَ أَرْحَمُ الرَّاحِمِينَ "
Rabbu inni massani-yadh-urru wa 'anta arhamur-Raahimeen
O my Rubb, Surely, distress has touched me, and You are the most Merciful of the merciful ones.
[surah al-Anbiya; 21:83]
- what Prophet Ayyub (alayhis salam) recited
=====================================
For Distress and Anguish
(Happpiness & peace)
Allahumma inni 'abduka, ibnu 'abdika, ibnu amatika, naasiyati biyadika, maadhin fiyya hukumuka, 'adhlun fiyya qadha'uka asaluka bi kulli ismin huwa laka, sammaita bihi nafsaka, aw an-zaltahu fi kitabika, aw 'allamtahu ahadan min khalqika, awista'tharta bihi fi 'ilmil-ghaibi 'indaka, an taj'alal-Qur'ana Rabbi'a qalbi, wa nura sadri, wa jalaa'a huzni, wa dhahaba hammi
Oh Allah, I am Your servant, the son of Your servant, the son of your maid-servant, and entirely at Your service. You hold me by my forelock. Your Decree is what controls me, and Your Commands to me are just. I beseech You by every one of Your Names, those which You use to refer to Yourself, or have revealed in Your Book, or have taught to any one of Your creation, or have chosen to keep hidden with You in the Unseen, to make the Qur’an Al-Karim the springtime of my heart, the light of my eyes, the departure of my grief, and the vanishing of my affliction and my sorrow.
[Ahmad 1:391, ibn Hibban]
The Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said, there is no-one who is afflicted by distress and grief, and says (the above), but Allah will take away his distress and grief, and replace it with joy." He was asked: "O Messenger of Allah, should we learn this?" He said: "Of course; everyone who hears it should learn it
