حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ عَنْ حَسَّانَ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ قَالَ كَانَ شَدَّادُ بْنُ أَوْسٍ فِي سَفَرٍ فَنَزَلَ مَنْزِلًا فَقَالَ لِغُلَامِهِ ائْتِنَا بِالشَّفْرَةِ نَعْبَثْ بِهَا فَأَنْكَرْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ مَا تَكَلَّمْتُ بِكَلِمَةٍ مُنْذُ أَسْلَمْتُ إِلَّا وَأَنَا أَخْطِمُهَا وَأَزُمُّهَا إِلَّا كَلِمَتِي هَذِهِ فَلَا تَحْفَظُوهَا عَلَيَّ وَاحْفَظُوا مِنِّي مَا أَقُولُ لَكُمْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ إِذَا كَنَزَ النَّاسُ الذَّهَبَ وَالْفِضَّةَ فَاكْنِزُوا هَؤُلَاءِ الْكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ الثَّبَاتَ فِي الْأَمْرِ وَالْعَزِيمَةَ عَلَى الرُّشْدِ وَأَسْأَلُكَ شُكْرَ نِعْمَتِكَ وَأَسْأَلُكَ حُسْنَ عِبَادَتِكَ وَأَسْأَلُكَ قَلْبًا سَلِيمًا وَأَسْأَلُكَ لِسَانًا صَادِقًا وَأَسْأَلُكَ مِنْ خَيْرِ مَا تَعْلَمُ وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا تَعْلَمُ وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ لِمَا تَعْلَمُ إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ عَلَّامُ الْغُيُوبِ.

Rawh narrated to us, he said: al-Awza'i narrated to us from Hassan ibn Atiyyah, who said: Shaddad ibn Aws was on a journey and he stopped at a place, and he said to his servant boy: Bring us the blade, let us play with it. I disapproved of that, so he said: I have not spoken a word since I embraced Islam except that I have bridled and restrained it, except this word of mine - so do not hold it against me, but remember from me what I say to you: I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: When people hoard gold and silver, then hoard these words: O Allah, I ask You for steadfastness in the matter, and resolve upon right guidance, and I ask You for gratitude for Your blessing, and I ask You for the goodness of Your worship, and I ask You for a sound heart, and I ask You for a truthful tongue, and I ask You for the best of what You know, and I seek refuge in You from the evil of what You know, and I seek Your forgiveness for what You know; indeed You are the Knower of the unseen.
