Our Nabi’s (sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam) beautiful, comprehensive Du’a for the Sahabah🤲🏼
Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (radiyallahu ‘anu) said:
“Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam) came out to us leaning on a stick. When we saw him, we stood up.
He said: ‘Do not do what the Persians do for their leaders.’
We said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, why don’t you pray to Allah for us?’
He said:
اَللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَنَا وَارْحَمْنَا, وَارْضَ عَنَّا, وَتَقَبَّلْ مِنَّا, وَأَدْخِلْنَا الْجَنَّةَ, وَنَجِّنَا مِنَ النَّارِ, وَأَصْلِحْ لَنَا شَأْنَنَا كُلَّهُ
‘Allahummaghfirlana, warhamna, wardha ‘anna, wa taqabbal minna, wa adkhilnal-jannah, wa najjina minan-nar, wa aslih lana sha-nana kullah.’
Translation
O Allah, forgive us and have mercy on us, be pleased with us and accept [our good deeds] from us, admit us into Jannah and save us from Jahannam and rectify all our affairs.
It was as if we wanted him to say more, but he said: ‘Have I not summed up everything for you?”
(Sunan Ibn Majah, Hadith: 3836)
