حَدَّثَنَا الصَّلْتُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مَھْدِيُّ بْنُ مَیْمُوْنِ، عَنِ الْجُرَیْرِيً، عَنْ جَبْرِ بْنِ حَبِیْبٍ، عَنْ أُمً کُلْثُوْمٍ بِنْتِ أَبِيْ بکْرٍ ،عَنْ عَائِشَۃََ ؓ قَالَتْ: دَخَلَ عَلَيًَ النًبِیًُ ﷺ وَأَنَا أُصَلًیْ، وَلَہُ حَاجَۃُ ُ ،فَأَبْطَأْتُ عَلَیْہِ، قَالَ: ((یَا عَائِشَۃُُ! عَلَیْکِ بِجُمَلِ الدًُعَاءِ وَجَوَ امِعِہ))، فَلَمًاَ انُصَرَفْتُ قُلْتُ :یَا رَسُوْلَ اللہ ِ! وَمَا جُمَلُ الدًُعَاءِ وَجَوَامِعْہُ؟ قَالَ: ((قُوْلِیْ : اللّھَّمُ إِنَّيْ أَسْأَ لُکَ مِنَ الْخَیْرِ کُلَّہِ، عَاجِلِہ، وِآجِلِہِ، مَا عَلَمْتُ مِنْہُ وَمَالَمْ أَعْلَمُ، وَأَعُوْذُبِکَ مَنَ الشَّرَّ کُلَّہِ، عَاجِلِہِ، وَآجِلِہِ، مَاعَلِمتُ مِنْہُ وَمَا لَمْ أَعْلَمْ، وَأَسْأَلُکَ مَمَّا سَأَلَکَ بِہِ مُحَمَّدُُ‘ ﷺ ،وَأَعُوْذُ بِکَ مِمَّا تَعَوَّذَ مِنْہُ مُحَمَّد’‘ ﷺ ، وَمَا قضَیْتَلِيْ مِنْ قَضَاءٍ فَاجْعَلْ عَاقِنَتَہُ رُشْدًا))
الأدب المفرد · Hadith 639
Umm Kulthum, the daughter of Abu Bakr, reported that 'A'isha said, "The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, came to me while I was praying when he needed something. I was taking a long time and he said, ''A'isha, you must make the comprehensive supplication.' When I finished, I asked, 'Messenger of Allah, what is the comprehensive supplication?' He said, 'Say: "O Allah, I ask You for all good, both sooner and later, what I know of it and what I do not know. I seek refuge with You from all evil, both sooner and later, what I know of it and what I do not know. I ask You for the Garden an d whatever words or actions bring one near to it. I seek refuge with You from the Fire and whatever words or actions bring one near to it. I ask You by what Muhammad asked You and I seek refuge from You by what Muhammad sought refuge from and whatever fate You have decreed for me, make its end right guidance."'"
