The comprehensive supplication

رَبَّنَا آتِنَا فِي ٱلدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَفِي ٱلْآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَقِنَا عَذَابَ ٱلنَّارِ

Rabbana atina fid-dunya hasanatan wa fil-akhirati hasanatan wa qina 'adhaban-nar

Our Lord, give us good in this world and good in the Hereafter, and protect us from the punishment of the Fire.

Source: Quran 2:201

What this supplication is

The most comprehensive dua — good in this world, good in the hereafter, and protection from the Fire (2:201). The Prophet (peace be upon him) is recorded praising it as a dua that gathers everything; it is recited constantly in prayer and out.

When to recite it

Any time, in and outside prayer; a daily staple.

Duas are a mercy in themselves — sincerity of heart matters more than eloquence. For a personal religious ruling about this supplication or your circumstances, consult a qualified scholar.
