وَعَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : " اكْتُمِ الْخُطْبَةَ ثُمَّ تَوَضَّأْ فَأَحْسِنِ الْوُضُوءَ ثُمَّ صِلِّ مَا كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَكَ ثُمَّ احْمَدْ رَبَّكَ وَمَجِّدْهُ ثُمَّ قُلِ : اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ تَقْدِرُ وَلَا أَقْدِرُ وَتَعْلَمُ وَلَا أَعْلَمُ وَأَنْتَ عَلَّامُ الْغُيُوبِ فَإِنْ رَأَيْتَ فِي فُلَانَةٍ يُسَمِّيهَا بِاسْمِهَا خَيْرًا لِي فِي دُنْيَايَ وَآخِرَتِي فَاقْضِ لِي بِهَا أَوْ قَالَ فَاقْدُرْهَا لِي " .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ هَكَذَا ، وَرِجَالُهُ ثِقَاتٌ كُلُّهُمْ .

Sayyiduna Abu Ayyub al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Keep the marriage proposal concealed. Then perform ablution and do it well, then pray as much as Allah Almighty has written for you, then praise your Lord and glorify Him, then say: 'O Allah! Indeed You have power and I have no power; You know and I do not know; and You are the Knower of the unseen. If You know that such-and-such a woman (here the man should name her) will be better for me in my world and my Hereafter, then decree her for me' (the narrator is in doubt; perhaps the words are:) 'ordain her for me.'"
Al-Tabarani recorded it in this form in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir, and all of its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
