Established Prophetic Sunnahs. Supplicating upon encountering a calamity. It is reported on the authority of Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) that she said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: "There is no Muslim who is afflicted with a calamity and says what Allah has commanded him: “Who say, when a misfortune striketh them: Lo! we are Allah's and lo! unto Him we are returning.” (2:156) 'O Allah, reward me in my affliction, and compensate me with something better than it,' except that Allah compensates him with something better than it."
