Is earth's rotation slowing down (even incredibly slowly) due to dust particles or comets etc.?

Was just wondering if earth's rotation was slowing because I read a thing about the ISS needing a boost every couple years because of tiny particles.

It is slowing, but mainly due to tidal friction from the moon's orbit. The average day has increased by about 1.7 milliseconds in the last century. Eventually, one day will be the same as one month, and the Earth will only have one side facing the moon, like the moon does with the Earth. However, the sun will die before that happens.
