Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 6374

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْجُبْنِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْبُخْلِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ أَنْ أُرَدَّ إِلَى أَرْذَلِ الْعُمُرِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الدُّنْيَا، وَعَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ

Allāhumma innī aʿūdhu bika mina al-jubni, wa-aʿūdhu bika mina al-bukhli, wa-aʿūdhu bika min an uradda ilā ardhali al-ʿumuri, wa-aʿūdhu bika min fitnah ad-dunyā, waʿadhābi al-qabri
