As far as I know this is a shia dua, but it's simple and beautiful:

La ilaha ilallah, astaghfirullah. Allahuma inni asalok al-jannah, wa auzobeka min an-naar.

There is no god but God, and may He forgive. Oh God, we ask of You Paradise, and we seek refuge in You from the Fire.

(That is my rough translation, Arabic speakers feel free to correct any inaccuracies. )

Man, I swear I saw you guys beating yourself up when the Sipah-e-Sahab Dog Azim Tariq died, his lovers were hitting their heads, LOL they were showing it on TV .

As far as I know this is a shia dua, but it's simple and beautiful:

Well brother, I don't think there is any "Shianess" in that dua. It's a good dua, everyone should recite it.

Dua Kumail is amazing. I hope you read it one day inshAllah if you haven't already. It won't bite you.

Have a look at this too, duas by Imam Ali (as):
Sahife Alaviya

[the_only_one]

afterall, I am pretty sure we can use some du3as from eachother. and reciting a particular du3a may increase the probablity of our dua3as being accepted, however i think we also a need to show little more humility in retreving and reciting these duas. at the end of the day, we all want the same thing than why fight through the way. for doors of Jannah are enormous and open for all of us until our last breath. iA. for Allah knows best.

[Rida]

Imam Ghazali (450-505 A.H, 1058-1111 C.E) Rahmatullahi 'alaih reports in Ihya 'Ulum id-Deen (Revival of Religious Knowledge, Vol I, Book 2, Chapter 2) that Shaykh Abi'l Hasan al-Shafi'i saw the Holy Prophet Sallallahu 'alaihi wa Sallam in a dream and asked him how Imam Shafi'i had been rewarded on his behalf to which he replied that Imam Shafi'i would enter paradise for the sake of the salawaat he wrote in his book, ar-Risalah (The Message).
The salawaat is:

Sallallahu 'alaa Muhammad-in
Kullamaa zakara hu'z-zaakiroon
Wa ghafala 'an zikri hi'l ghaafiloon

Blessings of Allah be on Sayyidina Muhammad
whenever he is remembered by those who remember
and whenever he is not remembered by the negligent.

Wassalaam

�Oh my God! Your Runaway slave has returned to Your door! Your disobedient servant has returned in reconciliation. Your sinning slave has come seeking Your Pardon, so pardon me, by virtue of Your munificence, and accept me through Your grace, and give me Your gaze (or look to me) through Your mercy.�

�Oh Allah, forgive me for what has proceeded of my sins, and protect me (from sinning) and other than that in what remains of my apportioned term of my lifespan, for indeed ALL good is in Your Hand, and You are Merciful and Extremely Compassionate to us.�

�Oh you who manifests the great affairs! And You Who are the furthest extent of the aspiration of those who are worried! Oh You Who if You will something, all You do is say �Be!� and it is! Our sins have surrounded us! And You are the One Who we have stored up for them (like storing up for a time of hardship). Oh You Who were saved as a Treasure for every difficulty, I was saving You for this moment, so forgive me! Indeed You are the One who constantly accepts the repentance of His servants (gives tawfiq to repent again and again).�

�Oh You Who is not busy by hearing anything from hearing anything else! And You Who many requests do not cause Him to fall into error! And You Who is not annoyed by the constant asking of those who constantly beseech You! Make me taste the coolness of Your pardon and the sweetness of Your forgiveness, by Your Mercy, Oh Most Merciful of those who show mercy! Indeed, You are able to do all things, Omnipotent.�

Allahumma salli ala muhammed wa `ala aale muhammed.

(That is my rough translation, Arabic speakers feel free to correct any inaccuracies. )

That's not a Shia dua exclusively.. iirc I've heard it a lot in East Africa. I think it's popular with the Ba'Alawi & Qadiri tariqas. Sim can probably clarify.

Anyway, keep posting, guys. This is the best thread on Islamica, imo.

In the Name of Allāh, The Beneficent, The Merciful.
Say! (O Prophet Muhammad). I take refuge with the Lord of the day-break;

and from the evil of the envious when he envies. (113:1-5)

Say! (O Prophet Muhammad). I take refuge with The Lord of mankind,

Did you then think that We created you in vain,
and that you would not be returned to Us?
But Exalted is Allāh, the True King,
there is no god but He, Lord of the Honoured Throne.
And whosoever calls upon any other god besides Allāh
has no authority for this,
and his reckoning is with his Lord;
undoubtedly, the non-believers will not be successful.
And say (O Prophet Muhammad)! My Lord! Forgive and have mercy
and You are the Best of those who show mercy. (23:115-118)
