Hadith 12107

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُكْثِرُ أَنْ يَقُولَ : " يَا مُقَلِّبَ الْقُلُوبِ ، ثَبِّتْ قَلْبِي عَلَى دِينِكَ " ، قَالَ : فَقُلْنَا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، آمَنَّا بِكَ ، وَبِمَا جِئْتَ بِهِ ، فَهَلْ تَخَافُ عَلَيْنَا ؟ ، قَالَ : فَقَالَ : " نَعَمْ ، إِنَّ الْقُلُوبَ بَيْنَ أُصْبُعَيْنِ مِنْ أَصَابِعِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يُقَلِّبُهَا " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) used to frequently supplicate: "O Turner of the hearts, keep my heart firm upon Your religion." Once we said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)! We have believed in you and in what you have brought; do you fear anything concerning us?" The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "Yes! For the hearts are between two of the fingers of Allah, He turns them as He wills."
