Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 17442 — from Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal that he

Abdullah bin Shaddad bin al-Had (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: I came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) looking for him, and I was told: He has gone out. So whenever I passed by anyone, he would say: He passed by here earlier. Then I found him standing in prayer. When he had completed his prayer, I said: You have prayed a very long prayer. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I prayed (this) prayer out of hope and fear. I asked Allah for three things; He granted me two and withheld one from me. I asked Him not to destroy my Ummah by drowning, and He granted me that. I asked Him not to give an enemy from other than them dominance over them, and He granted me that. And I asked Him not to let their fighting be among themselves, and He did not grant me that."
