أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَی قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِکِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مُصْعَبَ بْنَ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ کَانَ يُعَلِّمُنَا خَمْسًا کَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَدْعُو بِهِنَّ وَيَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِکَ مِنْ الْبُخْلِ وَأَعُوذُ بِکَ مِنْ الْجُبْنِ وَأَعُوذُ بِکَ مِنْ أَنْ أُرَدَّ إِلَی أَرْذَلِ الْعُمُرِ وَأَعُوذُ بِکَ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 5511
It was narrated that ‘Abdul Malik bin ‘Umair said: “I heard Mu bin Saad say, concerning his father: ‘He used to teach us five things that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم used to recite in his supplication, and say:(Allah, I seek refuge in You from miserliness, and I seek refuge in You from cowardice, and seek refuge in You from reaching the age of senility, and I seek refuge in You from the torment of the grave.)” (Sahih)
