حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ , حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ , أَنْبَأَنَا أَبُو مَالِكٍ سَعْدُ بْنُ طَارِقٍ , عَنْ أَبِيهِ , أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَدْ أَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ , فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ , كَيْفَ أَقُولُ حِينَ أَسْأَلُ رَبِّي ؟ قَالَ : " قُلْ : اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي وَارْحَمْنِي , وَعَافِنِي وَارْزُقْنِي " , وَجَمَعَ أَصَابِعَهُ الْأَرْبَعَ إِلَّا الْإِبْهَامَ , " فَإِنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ يَجْمَعْنَ لَكَ دِينَكَ وَدُنْيَاكَ " .
´Abu Malik, Sa'd Bin Tariq, narrated from his father that :` when a man had come to the Messenger of Allah (saas), he heard him say: "O Messenger of Allah, what should I say when I ask of Allah?" He said: "Say: Allahumma-ghfirli warhamni wa 'afini warzuqni (O Allah, forgive me, have mercy on me, keep me safe and sound and grant me provision)," and he held up his four fingers apart from the thumb and said: "These combine your religious and worldly affairs."

Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefits and Issues:
➊ If someone attains well-being from illness and hardship, and ample provision in this world, it is as if he has attained all the blessings of this world. And if, in the Hereafter, his sins are forgiven, it is as if he has attained all the blessings of the Hereafter. Mercy is such a thing upon which all the blessings of this world and the Hereafter depend. In this regard, this is an extremely comprehensive supplication.
➋ By indicating (with a gesture), a matter is better understood and firmly established in the mind.
