Dua When One Fears a Ruler

اَللّٰهُمَّ رَبَّ السَّمٰـوٰتِ السَّبْعِ ، وَرَبَّ العَرْشِ العَظِيْمِ ، كُنْ لِيْ جَارًا مِنْ فُلَانِ بْنِ فُلَانٍ ، وَأَحْزَابِهِ مِنْ خَلَائِقِكَ ؛ أنْ يَّفْرُطَ عَلَىَّ أحَدٌ مِنهُمْ أوْ يَطْغٰى ، عَزَّ جَارُكَ ، وَجَلَّ ثَنَاؤُكَ ، وَلَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ

Translation :

O Allah, Lord of the seven heavens, Lord of the Magnificent Throne, be for me a support against [such and such a person] and his helpers from among your creatures, lest any of them abuse me or do me wrong. Mighty is Your patronage, and glorious are Your praises. There is none worthy of worship but You.

Transliteration :

Allāhumma Rabb-as-samāwāti-s-sabiʿ, wa Rabba-l-ʿArshi-l-ʿaẓīm, kun lī jāran min fulāni-bni-fulān, wa aḥzābihi min khalāiqiqa; ay-yafruṭa ʿalayya aḥadun minhum aw yaṭgā, ʿazza jāruk, wa jalla thanā’uk, wa lā ilāha illā Ant.

Hadith:

ʿAbdullāh b. Masʿūd (raḍiy Allāhu ‘anhu) narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: “When one of you fears a ruler, they should say [the above].” (Ṭabarānī in Muʿjam al-Kabīr)
