عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي أَوْفَى ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَدْعُو فَيَقُولُ :
" اللَّهُمَّ طَهِّرْنِي بِالثَّلْجِ وَالْبَرَدِ وَالْمَاءِ الْبَارِدِ ، اللَّهُمَّ طَهِّرْ قَلْبِي مِنَ الْخَطَايَا كَمَا طَهَّرْتَ الثَّوْبَ الْأَبْيَضَ مِنَ الدَّنَسِ ، وَبَاعِدْ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ ذُنُوبِي كَمَا بَاعَدْتَ بَيْنَ الْمَشْرِقِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ قَلْبٍ لَا يَخْشَعُ ، وَنَفْسٍ لَا تَشْبَعُ ، وَدُعَاءٍ لَا يُسْمَعُ ، وَعِلْمٍ لَا يَنْفَعُ ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ هَؤُلَاءِ الْأَرْبَعِ ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ عِيشَةً تَقِيَّةً ، وَمِيتَةً سَوِيَّةً ، وَمَرَدًّا غَيْرَ مُخْزٍ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abdullah bin Abi Awfa (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to supplicate: O Allah! Purify me with snow, hail, and cold water. O Allah! Cleanse my heart from slips just as a white garment is cleansed from dirt. Place between me and my sins as much distance as there is between the east and the west. O Allah! I seek refuge in You from a heart devoid of humility, a soul that is never satisfied, an unaccepted supplication, and knowledge that is of no benefit. O Allah! I seek refuge in You from these four things. O Allah! I ask You for a life of piety, a good death, and a return free from disgrace.
