It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: I was praying in the mosque when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came in, and with him (peace and blessings be upon him) were Sayyiduna Abu Bakr and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both). I recited Surah al-Nisa, and when I had finished (the prayer) and sat, I began with praise and glorification of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, and with sending blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Then I supplicated for myself, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Ask, and you will be given; ask, and you will be given." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever would love to recite the Qur'an fresh should recite it according to the recitation of Ibn Umm Abd (Abdullah bin Mas'ud)." Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: Then I returned to my house, and Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) came to me and asked: Do you remember the supplication you were making? I said: Yes, (the supplication is): 'Allahumma inni as'aluka imanan la yartadd, wa na'iman la yanfad, wa murafaqata nabiyyina Muhammadin (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) fi a'la jannatil-khuld' (O Allah, I ask You for faith that never departs, blessings that never end, and the companionship of our Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) in the highest level of the Garden of Eternity). Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) relates: Then Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) also came to me and gave me the good news (of the words of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)).
