Musnad Ahmad 15877 — Hadith of Tariq ibn Ashyam al-Ashja'i, the father
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مَالِكٍ الْأَشْجَعِيُّ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : إِذَا أَتَاهُ الْإِنْسَانُ يَقُولُ : كَيْفَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَقُولُ حِينَ أَسْأَلُ رَبِّي ؟ قَالَ : " قُلْ : اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي ، وَارْحَمْنِي ، وَاهْدِنِي ، وَارْزُقْنِي " , وَقَبَضَ أَصَابِعَهُ الْأَرْبَعَ إِلَّا الْإِبْهَامَ : " فَإِنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ يَجْمَعْنَ لَكَ دُنْيَاكَ وَآخِرَتَكَ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Tariq that when a person would come to the Prophet (peace be upon him) and say, "O Messenger of Allah! When I supplicate to my Lord, what should I say?" the Prophet (peace be upon him) would say: "Say: O Allah, forgive me, have mercy on me, guide me, and provide for me." After that, he (peace be upon him) extended his thumb and folded the remaining four fingers, and said: "These things are comprehensive for both this world and the Hereafter."
