Sahih al-Jami al-Saghir — Hadith 2433

«إنها صلاة رغبة ورهبة سألت الله فيها ثلاث خصال فأعطاني اثنتين ومنعني واحدة سألته أن لا يسحتكم بعذاب أصاب من كان قبلكم فأعطانيها وسألته أن لا يسلط على بيضتكم عدوا فيجتاحها فأعطانيها وسألته أن لا يلبسكم شيعا ويذيق بعضكم بأس بعض فمنعنيها»
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
"This (prayer that I have just prayed) was a prayer of hope and fear. In it I asked Allah Almighty for three things; He granted me two and withheld one from me. I asked Him not to bring upon you a (general, destructive) punishment such as befell the nations before you, and He granted me that. And I asked Him not to let an external enemy overpower your heartland and destroy it from the root, and He granted me that too. And I asked Him not to divide you into different factions and make some of you taste the might and warfare of others (that is, that there be no civil war among you), but He withheld that from me."
