عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِرَجُلٍ: ((كَيْفَ تَقُولُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ؟)) قَالَ: أَتَشَهَّدُ ثُمَّ أَقُولُ: اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ الْجَنَّةَ وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ النَّارِ، أَمَا إِنِّي لَا أُحْسِنُ دَنْدَنَتَكَ وَلَا دَنْدَنَةَ مُعَاذٍ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((حَوْلَهُمَا دَنْدَنُ))
It is narrated from a Companion of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked a man: What do you say in prayer? He replied: First I recite the Tashahhud, then I supplicate in this way: O Allah, I ask You for Paradise and seek refuge in You from the Fire. I cannot recite in a humming manner like you and Mu'adh do. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: We also hum around these words.
