Musnad of Umm Salamah, wife of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
Musnad Abi Ya'la 6986 — I said to Sayyidah Umm Salamah: O Mother
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كَعْبٍ صَاحِبُ الْحَرِيرِ قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي شَهْرُ بْنُ حَوْشَبٍ قَالَ : سَأَلْتُ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ ، قُلْتُ : يَا أُمَّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مَا أَكْثَرُ دُعَاءِ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - إِذَا كَانَ عِنْدَكِ ؟ قَالَتْ : كَانَ أَكْثَرُ دُعَائِهِ : يَا مُقَلِّبَ الْقُلُوبِ ثَبِّتْ قَلْبِي عَلَى دِينِكَ ، قَالَتْ : فَقُلْتُ لَهُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا أَكْثَرَ دُعَاءَكَ : يَا مُقَلِّبَ الْقُلُوبِ ثَبِّتْ قَلْبِي عَلَى دِينِكَ ، قَالَ : يَا أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ ، إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنْ آدَمِيٍّ إِلَّا وَقَلْبُهُ بَيْنَ إِصْبَعَيْنِ مِنْ أَصَابِعِ اللهِ ، مَا شَاءَ أَقَامَ وَمَا شَاءَ أَزَاغَ .
It is narrated from Shahr bin Hawshab (may Allah have mercy on him) that I said to Sayyidah Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her): O Mother of the Believers! When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was with you, what was his most frequent supplication? She replied that his (peace and blessings be upon him) most frequent supplication was: 'Ya muqallib al-qulub, thabbit qalbi 'ala dinik' (O Turner of hearts, keep my heart firm upon Your religion). Sayyidah Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: I said to him (peace and blessings be upon him): O Messenger of Allah! Why do you so frequently make this supplication: 'Ya muqallib al-qulub, thabbit qalbi 'ala dinik'? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Umm Salamah! Indeed, the heart of every human being is between two of the fingers of Allah; whomever He wills He keeps firm (upon the religion), and whomever He wills He causes to deviate (from the truth)."
