O Allah, if my sustenance is in the heavens, then send it down, and if it is in the earth, then bring it forth, and if it is difficult, then make it easy, and if it is impure, then purify it, and if it is far, then bring it close by the right of Your brightness, beauty, and strength, and power. Grant me what You have granted Your righteous servants."

"O Allah, indeed the time of Dhuha is Your time, magnificence is Your magnificence, beauty is Your beauty, strength is Your strength, protection is Your protection. O Allah, if my sustenance is in the sky, then bring it down, if it is in the earth, then bring it forth, if it is difficult, then make it easy, if it is forbidden, then purify it, if it is far, then bring it close with Your truth and power (O my Lord), grant me what You grant to Your righteous servants."
