After Asr shalat, Nabi would seek refuge saying: 'Allahumma inni a'udhu bika minal-'ajzi wal-kasali wal-jubni wal-harami wal-bukhli, wa a'udhu bika min 'adhabil-qabri, wa a'udhu bika min fitnatil-mahya wal-mamat.' It seeks protection from spiritual and physical weaknesses.
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْعَجْزِ وَالْكَسَلِ وَالْجُبْنِ وَالْهَرَمِ وَالْبُخْلِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَحْيَا وَالْمَمَاتِ
Allahumma inni a'udhu bika minal-'ajzi wal-kasali wal-jubni wal-harami wal-bukhli, wa a'udhu bika min 'adhabil-qabri, wa a'udhu bika min fitnatil-mahya wal-mamat.
Meaning: O Allah, I seek refuge in You from incapacity, laziness, cowardice, old age, and miserliness. I seek refuge in You from the punishment of the grave. I seek refuge in You from the trials of life and death.
Source: Sahih al-Bukhari #6367This comprehensive doa of seeking refuge covers both worldly weaknesses (incapacity, laziness, cowardice, senility, miserliness) and spiritual dangers (punishment of the grave, trials of life and death). Nabi frequently sought Allah's protection from these, showing their severity and the importance of vigilance against them.
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْعَجْزِ وَالْكَسَلِ وَالْجُبْنِ وَالْهَرَمِ وَالْبُخْلِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَحْيَا وَالْمَمَاتِ
The Prophet (peace be upon him) used to say: 'Allahumma inni a'udhu bika minal-'ajzi wal-kasali wal-jubni wal-harami wal-bukhli, wa a'udhu bika min 'adhabil-qabri, wa a'udhu bika min fitnatil-mahya wal-mamat.'
