Majma al-Zawaid 17226 — What the servant wishes for

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِذَا تَمَنَّى أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَنْظُرْ مَا يَتَمَنَّاهُ ; فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَدْرِي مَا يُكْتَبُ لَهُ مِنْ أُمْنِيَّتِهِ " . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَأَبُو يَعْلَى ، وَإِسْنَادُ أَحْمَدَ رِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When one of you makes a wish, he should consider what he is wishing for, for he does not know which of his wishes has been written down as his lot."
Imam Ahmad and Imam Abu Ya'la recorded this narration, and the narrators of Imam Ahmad's chain are the narrators of the Sahih.
