From Distress & Anxiety Duas — Hisnul Muslim
This is among the most essential duas for distress and anxiety at the moment a calamity strikes, combining full submission to Allah's decree with a plea for reward and a better replacement.
إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ، اللَّهُمَّ أْجُرْنِي فِي مُصِيبَتِي وَأَخْلِفْ لِي خَيْرًا مِنْهَا.
Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'oon, allahumma'jurni fi museebati wakhlif li khayran minha.
قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم: ما من عبد تصيبه مصيبة فيقول ذلك، إلا أَجَرَهُ الله في مصيبته وأخلف له خيرًا منها.
