(قَبُولُ الدُّعَاءِ بِقِرَاءَةِ «لَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ سُبْحَانَكَ إِنِّي كُنْتُ مِنَ الظَّالِمِينَ»)
(Acceptance of supplication by reciting “There is no god but You, Glory be to You, indeed I was among the wrongdoers”)
Hadith 2292
وَعَنْ سَعْدَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: دَعْوَةُ ذِي النُّونِ إِذا دَعَا رَبَّهُ وَهُوَ فِي بَطْنِ الْحُوتِ (لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ سُبْحَانَكَ إِنِّي كُنْتُ مِنَ الظالمينَ) لَمْ يَدْعُ بِهَا رَجُلٌ مُسْلِمٌ فِي شَيْءٍ إلاَّ استجابَ لَهُ . رَوَاهُ أَحْمد وَالتِّرْمِذِيّ
Sa'd reported God’s messenger as saying that no Muslim will supplicate God for anything and fail to receive an answer when he uses Dhun Nun’s supplication when he was in the belly of the fish:“There is no god but Thee to whom be the glory. I was indeed a wrongdoer.” [Qur'an, xxi, 87] Ahmad and Tirmidhi transmitted it.
