Abdullaah ibn Mas`ood radiallaahu `anhu relates that the Prophet صلّى اللَّهُ عليه وسلّم would supplicate:
“O
Allaah! I ask You for guidance, piety, safety and well-being, and contentment
and sufficiency.”
(Allaahummaa innee
as’alukal-hudaa wat-tuqaa wal-`afaafa wal-ghinaa).
[Related by Muslim, no 2721]
Imaam as-Sa`dee (d. 1376 AH) رحمه الله stated in
[Bahjatul Quloobul-Abraar (p.198)]:
“This du`aa (supplication)
is from the most comprehensive and beneficial du`aas (supplications), since it
includes asking Allaah for well-being with regards to both the Religion and the
world.
