Musnad Abi Ya'la 3688 — the Prophet ﷺ used to supplicate abundantly
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : كَانَ مِنْ دُعَاءِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُكْثِرُ أَنْ يَقُولَ : يَا مُقَلِّبَ الْقُلُوبِ ثَبِّتْ قَلْبِي عَلَى دِينِكَ ، قَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، آمَنَّا بِكَ وَبِمَا جِئْتَ بِهِ ، فَهَلْ تَخَافُ عَلَيْنَا ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، إِنَّ الْقُلُوبَ بَيْنَ إِصْبَعَيْنِ مِنْ أَصَابِعِ اللهِ يُقَلِّبُهَا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to supplicate abundantly with this du'a: 'Ya muqallibal-qulub, thabbit qalbi 'ala dinik' (O Turner of hearts, keep my heart firm upon Your religion). The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) said: "O Messenger of Allah! We have believed in you and in the guidance you have brought; do you have any fear (of trial) concerning us?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes; indeed all hearts are between two of the fingers of Allah, and He turns them (as He wills)."
