FOR RIZQ (SUFFICIENT SUSTENANCE)
Once the Prophet's صلى لله علیھ وآلھ وسلمdaughter Fatima Zehra
سالم لله علیھاasked the Prophet صلى لله علیھ
وآلھ وسلمfor a helper. The Prophet صلى لله علیھ وآلھ وسلمadvised
her to recite the following Tasbih which is now known as Tasbih
e Zehra. This Tasbih is usually recited after each prayer.
However, it also has great value for solving the problems of
Rizq, Sustenance, Business, Job etc. The person should recite
the tasbih with the niyyat (intention) of seeking rizq
(sustenance); before leaving the house (sitting in the car for
going to work), before commencing business or before starting
work at office.
34 x Allah o Akbar, 33 x Alhumdolillah and 33 x
Subhanallah
Inshallah (God-willing) problems of rizq can be overcome with
this.

Dua from Sura Yasin for concealing something from an
opponent
At the time of Hijrat (emigration), the Holy Prophet صلى لله علیھ وآلھ
وسلمrecited the following verses from Sura Yasin, and as a result
the enemies that wanted to kill him could not see him even when he
escaped from in front of their eyes from Mecca.
َل اًل اَل َأ َأ
ِھَي ِإ ىَف ْغ ِإَّنا َجَعْلَنا ِفي ْعَناِقِھْم
اَأْلْذَقاِن َفُھم ُّمْقَمُح وَن
Inna Ja'alna fee a'naqihim aghlaa lan fa hiya ilal adhqaani fahum
muqmahoon
Verily we have put on their necks iron collars reaching upto their
chins so that their heads are raised
up. [Sura Yasin, Verse 8]
Wa ja ‘alna mim bayne Aide him saddawn min khal fe him saddan fa
aghshayna hum fa hum la yubseroon
And we have put a barrier before them & a barrier behind them, and
We have covered them up, so that
they cannot see [Sura Yasin, Verse 9]
