What is the dua for children (to have and to raise them)?

For those hoping for a child, or raising one, the Qur'an preserves the very words of the prophets: Zakariya's plea for good offspring, and Ibrahim's dua that he and his descendants would be people of prayer.

“My Lord, grant me from Yourself a good offspring. Indeed, You are the Hearer of supplication.”— 3:38 (Saheeh International)
“My Lord, make me an establisher of prayer, and [many] from my descendants. Our Lord, and accept my supplication.”— 14:40 (Saheeh International)
