Hisn al-Muslim 263

Arabic hadith text

كَانَ الرَّجُلُ إِذَا أَسْلَمَ عَلَّمَهُ النَّبيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم الصَّلاَةَ ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَدْعُوَ بِهَؤُلاَءِ الْكَلِمَاتِ: (اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرِ لِي، وَارْحَمْنِي، وَاهْدِنِي، وَعَافِنِي وَارْزُقْنِي)

Translation

When a man accepted Islam, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, would teach him the prayer, then instruct him to supplicate with these words: “O Allah, forgive me, have mercy on me, guide me, grant me well-being, and provide for me.”
