Arabic (Original)
قَالَ وَكَانَ يُعَلِّمُنَا هَذَا الدُّعَاءَ اللَّهُمَّ اهْدِنِي فِيمَنْ هَدَيْتَ وَعَافِنِي فِيمَنْ عَافَيْتَ وَتَوَلَّنِي فِيمَنْ تَوَلَّيْتَ وَبَارِكْ لِي فِيمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَقِنِي شَرَّ مَا قَضَيْتَ إِنَّكَ تَقْضِي وَلَا يُقْضَى عَلَيْكَ إِنَّهُ لَا يَذِلُّ مَنْ وَالَيْتَ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ وَأَظُنُّهُ قَدْ قَالَ هَذِهِ أَيْضًا تَبَارَكْتَ رَبَّنَا وَتَعَالَيْتَ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ وَقَدْ حَدَّثَنِي مَنْ سَمِعَ هَذَا مِنْهُ ثُمَّ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُهُ حَدَّثَ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ مَخْرَجَهُ إِلَى الْمَهْدِيِّ بَعْدَ مَوْتِ أَبِيهِ فَلَمْ يَشُكَّ فِي تَبَارَكْتَ وَتَعَالَيْتَ فَقُلْتُ لِشُعْبَةَ إِنَّكَ تَشُكُّ فِيهِ فَقَالَ لَيْسَ فِيهِ شَكٌّ.
English Translation
He (the Prophet, peace be upon him) used to teach us this supplication: 'O Allah, guide me among those You have guided. Grant me well-being among those You have granted well-being. Take care of me among those You have taken care of. Bless me in what You have given me. Protect me from the evil of what You have decreed, for You decree and nothing is decreed against You. Indeed, he is not humiliated whom You befriend.' And: 'Blessed are You, our Lord, and Exalted.'
