Hadith 637
فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلٌ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَيُّ الدُّعَاءِ أَفْضَلُ ؟ قَالَ : ”سَلِ اللَّهَ الْعَفْوَ وَالْعَافِيَةَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالآخِرَةِ“، ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ الْغَدَ فَقَالَ : يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ ، أَيُّ الدُّعَاءِ أَفْضَلُ ؟ قَالَ : ”سَلِ اللَّهَ الْعَفْوَ وَالْعَافِيَةَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالآخِرَةِ ، فَإِذَا أُعْطِيتَ الْعَافِيَةَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالآخِرَةِ فَقَدْ أَفْلَحْتَ“.
A man came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! Which supplication is the most virtuous? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Ask Allah for forgiveness and well-being in this world and the Hereafter." Then he came the next day and said: O Prophet of Allah! Which supplication is best? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Seek pardon and well-being from Allah in this world and the Hereafter. If you are granted well-being in this world and the Hereafter, then surely you have succeeded."
