اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِكُلِّ اسْمٍ هُوَ لَكَ سَمَّيْتَ بِهِ نَفْسَكَ، أَوْ عَلَّمْتَهُ أَحَدًا مِنْ خَلْقِكَ، أَوْ أَنْزَلْتَهُ فِي كِتَابِكَ، أَوْ اسْتَأْثَرْتَ بِهِ فِي عِلْمِ الْغَيْبِ عِنْدَكَ، أَنْ تَجْعَلَ الْقُرْآنَ رَبِيعَ قَلْبِي، وَنُورَ صَدْرِي، وَجِلَاءَ حُزْنِي، وَذَهَابَ هَمِّي.
O Allah, I ask You by every Name that You have called Yourself, or have taught to any of Your creation, or have revealed in Your Book, or have kept to Yourself in the knowledge of the unseen with You, that You make the Quran the springtime of my heart, the light of my chest, the remover of my grief, and the banisher of my worries.

Source & Authentication
When the Prophet (peace be upon him) was afflicted with hardship, he used to say: 'O Allah, I am Your slave, son of Your slave, son of Your female slave. My forelock is in Your hand. Your command over me is executed. Your decree concerning me is just. I ask You by every Name that You have called Yourself, or have taught to any of Your creation, or have revealed in Your Book, or have kept to Yourself in the knowledge of the unseen with You, that You make the Quran the springtime of my heart, and the light of my chest, and the remover of my grief, and the banisher of my worry.' (Hasan, as per Al-Albani) Ahmad also narrated it with a slightly different wording, and Al-Hakim authenticated it.
