أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَمِّي، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ أَبِي هَاشِمٍ الْوَاسِطِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي مِجْلَزٍ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ عُبَادٍ، قَالَ صَلَّى عَمَّارُ بْنُ يَاسِرٍ بِالْقَوْمِ صَلاَةً أَخَفَّهَا فَكَأَنَّهُمْ أَنْكَرُوهَا فَقَالَ أَلَمْ أُتِمَّ الرُّكُوعَ وَالسُّجُودَ قَالُوا بَلَى . قَالَ أَمَّا إِنِّي دَعَوْتُ فِيهَا بِدُعَاءٍ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَدْعُو بِهِ " اللَّهُمَّ بِعِلْمِكَ الْغَيْبَ وَقُدْرَتِكَ عَلَى الْخَلْقِ أَحْيِنِي مَا عَلِمْتَ الْحَيَاةَ خَيْرًا لِي وَتَوَفَّنِي إِذَا عَلِمْتَ الْوَفَاةَ خَيْرًا لِي وَأَسْأَلُكَ خَشْيَتَكَ فِي الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ وَكَلِمَةَ الإِخْلاَصِ فِي الرِّضَا وَالْغَضَبِ وَأَسْأَلُكَ نَعِيمًا لاَ يَنْفَدُ وَقُرَّةَ عَيْنٍ لاَ تَنْقَطِعُ وَأَسْأَلُكَ الرِّضَاءَ بِالْقَضَاءِ وَبَرْدَ الْعَيْشِ بَعْدَ الْمَوْتِ وَلَذَّةَ النَّظَرِ إِلَى وَجْهِكَ وَالشَّوْقَ إِلَى لِقَائِكَ وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ ضَرَّاءَ مُضِرَّةٍ وَفِتْنَةٍ مُضِلَّةٍ اللَّهُمَّ زَيِّنَّا بِزِينَةِ الإِيمَانِ وَاجْعَلْنَا هُدَاةً مُهْتَدِينَ " .
‘Ubayd Allah ibn Sa‘d ibn Ibrahim ibn Sa‘d narrated to us: My uncle narrated to us: Sharik narrated to us, from Abu Hashim al-Wasiti, from Abu Majliz, from Qays ibn ‘Ubad, who said: ‘Ammar ibn Yasir led the people in prayer and made it brief, so they seemed to disapprove. He asked, “Did I not complete the bowing and prostration?” They said, “Yes.” He said: “I made during it a supplication that the Prophet (ﷺ) used to make: ‘O Allah, by Your knowledge of the unseen and Your power over creation, keep me alive as long as You know that life is good for me, and cause me to die when You know that death is good for me. I ask You for reverent fear of You in private and in public, and for sincerity in speech in times of contentment and anger. I ask You for bliss that does not end, comfort that never ceases, contentment with Your decree, and the comfort of life after death. I ask You for the joy of looking upon Your face and the longing to meet You. I seek refuge in You from harmful adversity and a misguiding trial. O Allah, adorn us with the adornment of faith and make us guides who are rightly guided.’”
