English narration

Narrated by أنس بن مالك الأنصاري

Qatadah asked Anas: Which Supplication would the Prophet ﷺ often make ? He replied: The supplication he would usually recite was: "O Allah, give us in this world what is good and in the next what is good, and protect us from the punishment of Hell-fire". The version of Ziyad adds: When Anas wished to supplicate, he uttered this supplication. When he uttered some other supplication, he combined it with this supplication.

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ . ح حَدَّثَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ أَيُّوبَ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ الْمَعْنَى ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ صُهَيْبٍ ، قَالَ : سَأَلَ قَتَادَةُ أَنَسًا : أَيُّ دَعْوَةٍ كَانَ يَدْعُو بِهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَكْثَرُ ؟ قَالَ : "

كَانَ أَكْثَرُ دَعْوَةٍ يَدْعُو بِهَا : اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّنَا آتِنَا فِي الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَفِي الْآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ

" . وَزَادَ زِيَادٌ : وَكَانَ أَنَسٌ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَدْعُوَ بِدَعْوَةٍ دَعَا بِهَا ، وَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَدْعُوَ بِدُعَاءٍ دَعَا بِهَا فِيهَا .
