To what extent is the following supplication (du'a) authentic: "O Allah, do not let my enemies gloat over my ailment… And make the magnificent Quran my remedy and my healing, You are my trust and my hope… And make my good presumption of You my healing. O Allah, strengthen my intellect and my religion… And by You, O Lord, strengthen my certainty for me, And provide me with lawful sustenance that suffices me… And keep away from me the evil of whoever harms me, And do not make me in need of a doctor to treat me. O Allah, shield me on the surface of the earth… O Allah, have mercy on me in the belly of the earth, O Allah, forgive me on the Day of Presentation. In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, is my path… And the Most Gracious is my companion, and the Most Merciful guards me, From everything that touches me. O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the evil of those who blow on knots… And from the evil of an envier when he envies, By the virtue of 'Say: He is Allah, the One and Only'"?
The supplication mentioned does not contain anything that violates the Sharia, and many of its meanings are included in the texts of revelation. The questioner is advised to memorize the transmitted supplications, as they are the best and most comprehensive. There is no religious impediment to supplicating with other than them, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Then let him choose the supplication most pleasing to him and supplicate."
