Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرٌ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبِي قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَقُولُ: كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ: اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْعَجْزِ وَالْكَسَلِ، وَالْجُبْنِ وَالْهَرَمِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَحْيَا وَالْمَمَاتِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ.
Translation
Musaddad related to us: Mu‘tamir related to us, saying: I heard my father say: I heard Anas ibn Malik say: The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, used to say, “O Allah, I seek refuge in You from incapacity, laziness, cowardice, and senility. I seek refuge in You from the trials of life and death, and I seek refuge in You from the punishment of the grave.”
