From Abdullaah bin Umar who said from the Dua of the Messenger of Allaah sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam:
” اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ زَوَالِ نِعْمَتِكَ، وَتَحَوُّلِ عَافِيَتِكَ، وَفُجَاءَةِ نِقْمَتِكَ، وَجَمِيعِ سَخَطِكَ “.
O Allaah indeed I seek refuge with You from the discontinuation of Your blessings, and change from the goodness you have granted, and from being taken by surprise with Your punishment and all that which causes Your Anger.’
Allaahumma inni Aoothu bika min Zawaal Na’maatikawa Tahowool Aafeeyatik
wa Fojaati Niqmatika wa Jameea’ sakhatika
[Collected by Muslim and Abu Dawood] 
Shaykh AbdulMuhsin al-Abbad commenting on this hadeeth said:
[The discontinuation of blessings] – the dwindling of a blessing and being deprived of it. The aspect of a person having a blessing and then being deprived of it is like the transition from being wealthy to being poor.
The word ‘blessing’ is more general than being wealthy, because the blessings of Allaah Azza wa Jal cannot be enumerated, so health and goodness are included in this, wealth is included, and all types of blessings are included in this.
An example of this is the saying of Allaah Ta’ala:
وَإِنْ تَعُدُّوا نِعْمَةَ اللَّهِ لا تُحْصُوهَا
and if you count the Blessings of Allah, never will you be able to count them
[Ibrahim: 34]
And the saying of Allaah Ta’ala:
وَمَا بِكُمْ مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ فَمِنِ اللَّهِ
《And whatever of blessings and good things you have, it is from Allaah.》
[Nahl:53]
[and change from the goodness] – from being healthy to sickness and from good to evil.
[and from being taken by surprise with Your punishment] – meaning all of a sudden, whereby a person has security and then all of a sudden receives a punishment, this is because such matters can harm a person if they occur suddenly.
[and all which causes Your Anger] – this is general and includes everything which angers Allaah Azza wa Jal.’
[Sharh Sunnan Abi Dawood 184]

مِنْ دُعَاءِ ارَسُولِ
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ : كَانَ مِنْ دُعَاءِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ :
” اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ زَوَالِ نِعْمَتِكَ، وَتَحَوُّلِ عَافِيَتِكَ، وَفُجَاءَةِ نِقْمَتِكَ، وَجَمِيعِ سَخَطِكَ “.
صحيح مسلم و سنن أبي داود
قال الشيخ عبد المحسن العباد البدر:
زوال نعمتك
زوال النعمة ذهابها وسلبها، وكون الإنسان يكون في نعمة فيسلبها، فيتحول مثلاً من الغنى إلى الفقر.والنعمة أعم من الغنى؛ لأن نعم الله عز وجل لا تحصى، فيدخل فيها الصحة والعافية ويدخل فيها المال، ويدخل فيها أنواع النعم؛ لأن النعمة هنا من المفرد المضاف إلى معرفة فتعم كقوله تعالى:
وَإِنْ تَعُدُّوا نِعْمَةَ اللَّهِ لا تُحْصُوهَا [إبراهيم:34]،
وقوله: وَمَا بِكُمْ مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ فَمِنِ اللَّهِ [النحل:53].
وتحول العافية من الصحة إلى المرض، ومن الخير إلى الشر.
قوله: (وفجاءة نقمتك) يعني البغتة، حيث يكون الإنسان آمناً فيحصل له انتقام فجأة؛ لأن البغتة قد تحصل بها للإنسان أمور تضره.
وقوله: (وجميع سخطك) هذا عام يعم كل ما يسخط الله عز وجل.
