Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ عُمَارَةَ، - وَهُوَ ابْنُ الْقَعْقَاعِ - عَنْ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ لِكُلِّ نَبِيٍّ دَعْوَةٌ مُسْتَجَابَةٌ يَدْعُو بِهَا فَيُسْتَجَابُ لَهُ فَيُؤْتَاهَا وَإِنِّي اخْتَبَأْتُ دَعْوَتِي شَفَاعَةً لأُمَّتِي يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Qutayba ibn Sa‘id narrated to us: Jarir narrated to us, from ‘Umara—meaning Ibn al-Qa‘qa‘—from Abu Zur‘a, from Abu Hurayra, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Every prophet has a supplication that is answered when he makes it, and it is granted to him. I have reserved my supplication as an intercession for my community on the Day of Resurrection.”
