Listen to the recitation of this dua
Allah said that the people with knowledge supplicate to their Lord,
“Our Lord! Let not our hearts deviate (from the truth) after You have guided us.” meaning, do not deviate our hearts from the guidance after You allowed them to acquire it. Do not make us like those who have wickedness in their hearts, those who follow the Mutashabih in the Qur’an. Rather, make us remain firmly on Your straight path and true religion.”
“And grant us from Ladunka” meaning, from You,
“Mercy” with which You make our hearts firm, and increase in our Faith and certainty,
“Truly, You are the Bestower”
Ibn Abi Hatim and Ibn Jarir recorded that Umm Salamah said that the Prophet Sallal laahoo alaihi wassallam used to supplicate,
“O You Who changes the hearts, make my heart firm on Your religion.”
He then recited,
“Our Lord! Let not our hearts deviate (from the truth) after You have guided us, and grant us mercy from You. Truly, You are the Bestower.’’
