From General Duas — Hisnul Muslim
One of the Quranic general duas a Muslim turns to when facing a difficult situation or a heavy responsibility, this is the supplication of Prophet Musa (peace be upon him) when Allah sent him to Pharaoh — he asked his Lord to open his chest, ease his task, and grant clarity to his speech.
رَبِّ اشْرَحْ لِي صَدْرِي، وَيَسِّرْ لِي أَمْرِي، وَاحْلُلْ عُقْدَةً مِنْ لِسَانِي، يَفْقَهُوا قَوْلِي

My Lord, expand for me my chest, and ease for me my task, and untie the knot from my tongue, that they may understand my speech. This is the supplication of Prophet Musa (Moses), peace be upon him, when Allah commanded him to go to Pharaoh — he asked Allah for confidence, ease, and clarity of speech to carry out a daunting mission.
It is recommended when undertaking a difficult or important task, such as public speaking or facing a situation that calls for an open heart, steadiness, and clear expression.
This dhikr is part of General Duas as documented in Hisnul Muslim (Fortress of the Muslim), and is recited 1 time.
