Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 31294 — Supplication for the people at large

Ubayd bin Abd al-Malik said: I was told by a person who saw Umar bin Abd al-Aziz standing at Arafat making this supplication. He was saying this while also pointing with his finger: O Allah, increase the goodness of those who do good among the Ummah of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), and turn those of them who sin toward repentance. Then he supplicated in this manner, and also rotated his finger: And encompass them from behind with Your mercy.
