Thereafter he said, “Recite the following du’a hundred times at the sunrise,
And then, the world will come to you humiliated and down-trodden. The person then went away and turned up after a lapse of time and said, “O Messenger of ALLAH! The world (wealth) has come to me in so abundance that he does not know where to keep it’.
The practice of the pious elders has been to recite this dua between the Sunnah-l-Mu’akkadah and obligatory Rakaats of Fajr Salaah. It is advisable to also recite a rosary of

This is in fact the result of repentance because sins cause decreases in sustenance as also various types of anxieties and tribulations. [Madarijun Nubuwah]
