Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.  

When one is in a financial difficulty, he should recite Surah al-Waqiah every night. Consider the following hadith:

عن عبد الله بن مسعود رضي الله عنه قال سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول من قرأ سورة الواقعة في كل ليلة لم تصبه فاقة أبدا قال و قد أمرت بناتي أن يقرأنها كل ليلة[1]

Abdullah Ibn Masood, radiyallahu unhu, narrated that I heard the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam saying, “whoever recites Surah al-Waqiah every night, he will never be afflicted by poverty.” He also said, “I order my daughters to read it every night.”  

Also, take it upon yourself to regularly recite the following dua:

اللهُمَّ اكْفِنِي بِحَلَاْلِكَ عَنْ حَرَاْمِكَ وَ وَأَغْنِنِي بِفَضْلِكَ عَمَّنْ سِوَاْكَ[2]

Transliteration “allahumma ikfinee bihalaalika ‘an haraamika wa aghninee bifadhika ‘amman siwaak

Translation: Oh Allah, suffice me with things that You have made halal so that I may abstain from things that You have made haram, and enrich me with Your grace so that I am not in need of anyone besides You.

We make dua that Allah helps you in your difficulties. Ameen.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
