Dua seeking good in this world and in the hereafter

رَبَّنَآ ءَاتِنَا فِى ٱلدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَفِى ٱلْأَخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً
وَقِنَا عَذَابَٱلنَّارِ
Translation
And of them there are some (righteous believers) who say:
"Our Lord! Give us in this world that which is good and in the
Hereafter that which is good, and save us from the torment of the
Fire!"
Note:
1. It is incorrect to ask from Allah for this world only. Allah
mentions this misbehavior in the preceding ayah as;
… But of mankind there are some who say: "Our Lord! Give us (Your
Bounties) in this world!" and for such there will be no portion in the
Hereafter. (2:200)
2. This was one dua the prophet of Allah (may the peace and blessings
of Allah be upon him) used to say in abundance.Transliteration
rabbanaaa aatinaa fid-dunyaa ḥasanatan wa fil-aakhirati ḥasanatan wa
qinaa ‛adhaab-an-naar
Sources: Surah Al-Baqarah (2:201)
