Supplication for Actively Easing Difficulties

Hadith: Sahih Ibn Hibban, Hisnul Muslim 42

اللَّهُمَّ لاَ سَهْلَ إِلَّا مَا جَعَلْتَهُ سَهْلاً، وَأَنْتَ تَجْعَلُ الْحَزْنَ إِذَا شِئْتَ سَهْلاً

Transliteration

Allahumma la sahla illa ma ja'altahu sahla, wa anta taj'alul-hazna idha shi'ta sahla.

English Meaning

O Allah, there is no ease except in that which You have made easy, and You make the difficulty, if You wish, easy.

বাংলা অর্থ

হে আল্লাহ! আপনি যা সহজ করে দেন তা ছাড়া কোনো কিছুই সহজ নয়। আর আপনি চাইলে কঠিন বিষয়কেও সহজ করে দেন।

Significance & Context

This prayer introduces a crucial theological insight: 'ease' and 'difficulty' are not intrinsic properties of a task but are subjective states dictated by the Divine. A mountain can be traversed effortlessly if facilitated by grace, while a pebble can cause a stumble without it.

لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللّٰهُ وَحْدَهُ لاَ شَرِيْكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ، وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ، يُحْيِيْ وَيُمِيْتُ، وَهُوَ حَيٌّ لاَ يَمُوْتُ، بِيَدِهِ الْخَيْرُ، وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيْرٌ

La ilaha illallahu wahdahu la sharika lah, lahul mulku wa lahul hamdu, yuhyi wa yumitu, wa huwa hayyul la yamut, biyadihil khayru, wa huwa ala kulli shay-in qadir.

There is no god worthy of worship but Allah alone, with no partner. His is all sovereignty and to Him belongs all praise. He gives life and causes death. He is Ever-Living and never dies. In His hand is all good and He is able to do all things.
