حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ، عَنْ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ شَيْبَانَ ، عَنْ أَبِي نَوْفَلٍ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا ، قَالَتْ : " كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَسْتَحِبُّ الْجَوَامِعَ مِنَ الدُّعَاءِ وَيَدَعُ مَا سِوَى ذَلِكَ " .
Aishah said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ liked comprehensive supplication and abandoned other kinds.

1482. Commentary: That is, such supplications which encompass the goodness of both this world and the Hereafter. Also, their words are few but their meanings are vast. For example, the well-known supplication: [وَمِنْهُم مَّن يَقُولُ رَبَّنَا آتِنَا فِي الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَفِي الْآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ]
