I have two questions. My first question is, does anyone know any specific dua to receive justice for mistreatment. Actually I have been mistreated, harassed and abused by a person who is not a muslim, but I was not able to speak out for myself as I am a very timid and shy kind of person. I dont want to cause a chaos but I want to report the man to authority cause I'm afraid he might be abusing other people as well.
second question, I wish to give charity for the satisfaction of Allah but I dont have my own income and I have to spend from my father's money but I have to explain to him where I spent it. So is there any substitute to it or should I just pause on charity until I start earning my own money?
Please I need advice from a learned and knowledgeable person.

I'm not a knowledgeable person but I've found the following from 'Fortress of the Muslim - Invocations from the Qur'an & Sunnah' a publication from Dar-us-Salam. I hope it helps Insha'Allah.
Invocations in times of worry and grief
Allahumma ‘innee ‘abduka, ibna ‘abdika,ibna ‘amtika, naasiyatee biyadika, maadhin fiyya hukmuka, ‘adlun fiyya qadhaa’uka,‘as’aluka bikulli ismin huwa laka, sammayta bihi nafsaka, ‘aw ‘anzaltahu feekitaabika, ‘aw ‘allamtahu ‘ahadan min khalqika, ‘awista’tharta bihi fee ‘ilmil-ghaybiindaka, ‘an taj’alal-Qur’anna rabee’a qalbee, wa noora sadree, wa jalaa’ahuznee, wa thahaaba hammee.
O Allah, I am Your slave and the daughter of Yourmale slave and the daughter of Your female slave. My forehead is in your Hand(You have control over me). Your judgment upon me is assured and Your Decreeconcerning me is just. I ask You by every Name that You have named Yourselfwith, revealed in Your Book, taught any one of Your creation or kept untoYourself in the knowledge of the unseen that is with You, to make the Qur’anthe spring of my heart, and the light of my chest, the banisher of my sadnessand the reliever of my distress.
O Allah, I seek refuge in You from grief andsadness, from weakness and from laziness, from miserliness and from cowardice,from being overcome by debt and overpowered by men (others).
Invocations for anguish
La ‘ilaaha ‘illallahul-‘Adheemul-Haleem, laa ‘ilaaha ‘illallaahu Rabbul-‘Arshil-‘Adheem, laa ‘ilaaha ‘illallahuRabbus-samaawaati wa Rabbul-‘ardhi wa Rabbul-‘Arshil-Kareem.
There is none worthy of worship but Allah theAlmighty, the Forbearing. There is none worthy of worship but Allah, Lord ofthe Magnificent Throne. There is none worthy of woship but Allah, Lord of theheavens and Lord of the earth, and Lord of the Noble Throne.
Allahumma rahmataka ‘arjoo falaatakilnee ‘ilaa nafsee tarfata ‘aynin, wa ‘aslih lee sha’nee kullahu, laa ‘ilaaha‘illaa ‘Anta.
O Allah, I hope for Your Mercy. Do not leave me tomyself even for the blinking of an eye. Correct all of my affairs for me. Thereis none worthy of worship but You.
Invocations for when you meet an adversary or a powerful ruler
Allahumma ‘innaa naj’aluka feenuhoorihim was na’oothu bika min shuroorihim.
O Allah, we ask You to restrain them by theirnecks and we seek refuge in You from their evil.
Allahumma ‘Anta ‘adhudee, wa ‘Antanaseeree, bika ‘ajoolu, wa bika ‘asoolu, wa bika ‘uqaatilu.
O Allah, You are my strength and You are mysupport. For Your sake I go forth and for Your sake I advance and for Your sakeI fight.
What to say if you fear people may harm you
Allahummak-fineehim bimaa shi’ta.
O Allah, suffice (protect) me against them howeveryou wish.

I don't know the answer but I found this.
Abu Hurairah said:
"The Messenger of Allah said:"The best of charity is that which is given when you are self-sufficient,and start with those for whom you are responsible."

Allah made everyone different thats what makes them special,so no matter what ppl say just remember you're SPECIAL!! "You are with the one you love"

I do not know the answer to your questions. I have a suggestion for the second. If you cannot give money, can you give assistance and time? Perhaps you could volunteer to watch children at the masjid during halaqa or teach a class in sewing or serve food to the hungry? In my community, we need volunteers almost as much as we need money.
Report the Abuser! Report and Report! NEVER become a silent victim! Ever!
There is a hadith about it (similar words) "Help the oppressed(innocent/victim) and the oppressor(cruel/transgressor). When asked how help the oppressor? It was replied, By stopping him."
But first, gain strength, seek support from Allah swt, pray loads to Him to give you the courage to stand up and speak for yourself. This is indeed not any easy thing, more so in a muslim culture.. Engage in conversation with trustworthy people of your family, perhaps your mother, don't just drop the bomb on her, let her know calmly, prepare her if she herself is not a strong person. But you have to speak up or it will bother you for life..
Find the articles on Abuse online, there are many many organizations to help you with that, internationally. Read articles on the types of abuse, how to spot an abuser and how to escape from abuse, read them all! You will gain strength from them and will be able to relate better and express yourself better...may Allaah swt be with you and ease your matters and the pain that you're going through, ameen..
Allhoumma i7sihim 3addadda waqtolhoum baddada wala toghadir minhoum a7ada
It's usually said in times of war for their complete destruction and has brought complete destruction to some indeed. I'd use it if I felt a gross injustice plus use other means against the offender!
