Chapter on Seeking Refuge and Supplication After Sending Blessings on the Prophet
Hadith 1812
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((إِذَا فَرَغَ أَحَدُكُمْ مِنَ التَّشَهُّدِ الْآخِرِ فَلْيَتَعَوَّذْ مِنْ أَرْبَعٍ: مِنْ عَذَابِ جَهَنَّمَ، وَمِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ وَمِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَحْيَا وَالْمَمَاتِ، وَمِنْ شَرِّ الْمَسِيحِ الدَّجَّالِ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: When any of you finishes the final Tashahhud, he should seek refuge from these four things: from the punishment of Hell, from the punishment of the grave, from the trials of life and death, and from the evil of the False Messiah (Dajjal).
Hadith 1813
عَنِ ابْنِ طَاوُسٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ بَعْدَ التَّشَهُّدِ فِي الْعِشَاءِ الْآخِرَةِ كَلِمَاتٍ كَانَ يُعَظِّمُهُنَّ جِدًّا، يَقُولُ: أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ جَهَنَّمَ، وَأَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ شَرِّ الْمَسِيحِ الدَّجَّالِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَحْيَا وَالْمَمَاتِ، قَالَ: كَانَ يُعَظِّمُهُنَّ وَيَذْكُرُهُنَّ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ
Hazrat Tawoos used to recite these words after the last Tashahhud in the Isha prayer and considered them very great: "I seek refuge with Allah from the punishment of Hell, and I seek refuge with Allah from the evil of the False Messiah (Dajjal), and I seek refuge with Allah from the punishment of the grave, and I seek refuge with Allah from the trials of life and death." (I seek refuge with Allah from the punishment of Hell, and I seek refuge with Allah from the evil of the False Messiah (Dajjal), and I seek refuge with Allah from the punishment of the grave, and I seek refuge with Allah from the trials of life and death.) He considered them great and mentioned them from the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) on the authority of Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her).
Hadith 1814
عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَدْعُو فِي الصَّلَاةِ: ((اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَسِيحِ الدَّجَّالِ وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَحْيَا وَفِتْنَةِ الْمَمَاتِ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْمَأْثَمِ وَالْمَغْرَمِ)) قَالَتْ: فَقَالَ لَهُ قَائِلٌ: مَا أَكْثَرَ مَا تَسْتَعِيذُ مِنَ الْمَغْرَمِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ فَقَالَ: ((إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ إِذَا غَرِمَ حَدَّثَ فَكَذَبَ وَوَعَدَ فَأَخْلَفَ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Urwah bin Zubair that the wife of the Messenger, Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), informed him that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to supplicate in prayer: "O Allah! I seek refuge with You from the punishment of the grave, and I seek refuge with You from the trial of the False Messiah (Dajjal), and I seek refuge with You from the trials of life and death. O Allah! I seek refuge with You from sin and debt." (O Allah! I seek Your protection from the punishment of the grave, I seek Your protection from the trial of the False Messiah, I seek Your protection from the trials of life and death, O Allah! I seek Your protection from sin and debt.)
A man said to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): O Messenger of Allah! Why do you seek refuge from debt so frequently? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: When a man is in debt, he speaks and tells lies, and he makes promises and breaks them.

Hadith 1815
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.
Hadith 1816
عَنْ مِحْجَنِ بْنِ الْأَدْرَعِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِرَجُلٍ قَدْ قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ وَهُوَ يَتَشَهَّدُ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ يَا اللَّهُ الْوَاحِدُ الْأَحَدُ الصَّمَدُ الَّذِي لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ أَنْ تَغْفِرَ لِي ذُنُوبِي إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((قَدْ غُفِرَ لَهُ، قَدْ غُفِرَ لَهُ، قَدْ غُفِرَ لَهُ)) ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Mihjan bin Adra’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) entered the mosque and saw a man who, after completing his prayer, was reciting this supplication in the Tashahhud: “O Allah! Indeed, I ask You, O Allah, the One, the Unique, the Self-Sufficient, Who neither begets nor is begotten, and there is none comparable to Him, that You forgive my sins. Indeed, You are the Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Indeed, he has been forgiven, indeed, he has been forgiven, indeed, he has been forgiven.” That is, he said it three times.
Hadith 1817
عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبْزَى عَنْ أَبِيهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا جَلَسَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَدَعَا وَضَعَ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى عَلَى فَخِذِهِ ثُمَّ كَانَ يُشِيرُ بِإِصْبَعِهِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdur Rahman bin Abzi, may Allah be pleased with him, who says that when the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, would sit and supplicate in prayer, he would place his right hand on his thigh and then gesture with his finger.
Hadith 1818
(وَعَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ) أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يُشِيرُ بِإِصْبَعِهِ السَّبَّاحَةِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ
(Second chain) The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, used to gesture with the index finger during prayer.
Hadith 1819
عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ الْخُزَاعِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ قَاعِدٌ فِي الصَّلَاةِ قَدْ وَضَعَ ذِرَاعَهُ الْيُمْنَى عَلَى فَخِذِهِ الْيُمْنَى رَافِعًا بِإِصْبَعِهِ السَّبَّابَةِ قَدْ حَنَأَهَا شَيْئًا وَهُوَ يَدْعُو
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Namir Khuzai (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sitting in prayer, and his right arm was placed on his right thigh, and he was raising the index finger while supplicating, and this finger was slightly bent.
Hadith 1820
عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِسَعْدٍ وَهُوَ يَدْعُو بِإِصْبَعَيْنِ فَقَالَ: ((أَحِّدْ يَا سَعْدُ!))
Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by Sayyiduna Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with him) while he was supplicating with two fingers, so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Sa’d! Supplicate with one (finger).
