أَخْبَرَنَا وَاصِلُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى، عَنِ ابْنِ فُضَيْلٍ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، قَالَ كَانَ إِذَا قِيلَ لِزَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ حَدِّثْنَا مَا، سَمِعْتَ مِنْ، رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ لاَ أُحَدِّثُكُمْ إِلاَّ مَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم حَدَّثَنَا بِهِ وَيَأْمُرُنَا أَنْ نَقُولَ " اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْعَجْزِ وَالْكَسَلِ وَالْبُخْلِ وَالْجُبْنِ وَالْهَرَمِ وَعَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ اللَّهُمَّ آتِ نَفْسِي تَقْوَاهَا وَزَكِّهَا أَنْتَ خَيْرُ مَنْ زَكَّاهَا أَنْتَ وَلِيُّهَا وَمَوْلاَهَا اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ نَفْسٍ لاَ تَشْبَعُ وَمِنْ قَلْبٍ لاَ يَخْشَعُ وَمِنْ عِلْمٍ لاَ يَنْفَعُ وَدَعْوَةٍ لاَ تُسْتَجَابُ " .
Wasil ibn ʿAbd al-Aʿla reported to us, from Ibn Fudayl, from ʿAsim ibn Sulayman, from ʿAbdullah ibn al-Harith, who said: When Zayd ibn Arqam was asked, ‘Tell us what you heard from the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him,’ he would say: ‘I will tell you only what the Messenger of Allah related to us and instructed us to say: “O Allah, I seek refuge in You from incapacity, laziness, miserliness, cowardice, old age, and the punishment of the grave. O Allah, grant my soul its God-consciousness and purify it; You are the best to purify it. You are its Guardian and Master. O Allah, I seek refuge in You from a soul that is never satisfied, a heart that is not humble, knowledge that brings no benefit, and a supplication that is not answered.”’
