اللَّهُمَّ أَدِّ عَنِّي كُلَّ حَقٍّ لَكَ عَلَيَّ، وَكُلُّ حَقٍّ لِخَلْقِكَ عَلَيَّ، وَأَعِنِّي عَلَى قَضَاءِ ذَلِكَ كُلِّهِ.
O Allah, discharge on my behalf every right that is due to You from me, and every right that is due to Your creation from me, and help me in fulfilling all of that.
Allahumma addi 'anni kulla haqqin laka 'alayya, wa kulla haqqin likhalqika 'alayya, wa a'inni 'ala qada'i dhalika kullihi.
When to Read
This powerful supplication is best recited in the quietude of the night, perhaps after the obligatory prayers or during the voluntary night prayers.

How to Read

Understand that 'rights' (huquq) encompasses all obligations we have towards Allah (our Creator) and towards His creation (family, neighbours, colleagues, society, even the environment). Make a firm intention to uphold these rights, and let this dua be an earnest plea for divine assistance to do so.
Virtues & Benefits

By asking Allah to help us discharge these rights, we acknowledge our limitations and seek His guidance and strength. It fosters a conscious awareness of the needs and entitlements of others, promoting empathy and a commitment to justice and fairness in all our dealings. Fulfilling the rights of others is a cornerstone of good character and a vital aspect of being a responsible member of the Ummah.
