Anxiety & worry

When you have to speak and you are afraid

Mūsā ﷺ asked for this before standing in front of Pharaoh.

قَالَ رَبِّ ٱشْرَحْ لِى صَدْرِى وَيَسِّرْ لِىٓ أَمْرِى وَٱحْلُلْ عُقْدَةً مِّن لِّسَانِى يَفْقَهُوا۟ قَوْلِى

Rabbi-shraḥ lī ṣadrī, wa yassir lī amrī, wa-ḥlul ʿuqdatan min lisānī, yafqahū qawlī.

“[Moses] said, "My Lord, expand [i.e., relax] for me my breast [with assurance] And ease for me my task And untie the knot from my tongue That they may understand my speech.”
