The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to supplicate, "Lord, help me and do not help others against me. Grant me victory and do not grant victory against me. Plan for me and do not plan against me. Guide me and make guidance easy for me. Grant me victory over those who transgress against me.Lord, make me one who is grateful to You, who remembers You often, who fears You, who obeys You, who humbles myself before You, who turns to You in devotion and repentance.Lord, accept my repentance, wash away my sin, answer my supplication, make firm my proof, guide my heart, set my tongue aright, and remove the rancor from my heart."
حدثنا يحيى قال أملاه علي سفيان إلى شعبة قال سمعت عمرو بن مرة حدثني عبد الله بن الحارث المعلم حدثني طليق بن قيس الحنفي أخو أبي صالح
أن رسول الله ﷺ كان يدعو رب أعني ولا تعن علي وانصرني ولا تنصر علي وامكر لي ولا تمكر علي واهدني ويسر الهدى إلي وانصرني على من بغى علي رب اجعلني لك شكارا لك ذكارا لك رهابا لك مطواعا إليك مخبتا لك أواها منيبا رب تقبل توبتي واغسل حوبتي وأجب دعوتي وثبت حجتي واهد قلبي وسدد لساني واسلل سخيمة قلبي
Its chain of transmission is sahih. Amr bin Mura bin Abdullah bin Tariq Muradi is trustworthy, firmly reliable, and dependable. Thawri and Shuba narrated from him, but this particular hadith was heard from him by Thawri, who then dictated it to Yahya Qattan so that he could pass it on to Shuba.Abdullah bin Harith Zubaydi, with a dammah on the zay, Najrani, is trustworthy and firmly reliable. He is also called Muktib, with a dammah on the meem, a fatha on the kaf, and a doubled kasrah-bearing taa, which means "teacher," since he used to teach writing.Taliq bin Qays Hanafi is trustworthy, having been declared trustworthy by Abu Zura and Nasai. Taliq is with a fatha on the taa, as can be understood from Mushtabih 326, since it mentions no other reading. Had there been anyone known by this name with a dammah on the taa, the author would have mentioned it, Allah willing. It is marked in the commentary on Tirmidhi as a diminutive form, though I fear this may be an error.The hadith was narrated by Tirmidhi 4:273, who said, this is a hasan sahih hadith. His commentator said that it was also transmitted by Abu Dawud, Nasai, Ibn Majah, Ibn Hibban, Hakim, and Ibn Abu Shayba. In Tahdhib 5:3 there is an indication that it was also narrated by Bukhari in Adab al-Mufrad, and that Ibn Hibban graded it sahih.Khadi-an, khashi-an, mutawadi-an comes from ikhbat, which means humility and submissiveness. Awwahan, awwah means one who moans and pleads earnestly, though it has also been said to mean one who weeps much, or one who supplicates much, according to Nihaya."Accept my repentance" appears in one manuscript as "accept my supplication," but we have retained what appears in manuscript K and in Tirmidhi. Al-hawba means sin. Al-sakhima means resentment held within the soul.Hakim graded it sahih, 1/519-520, and Dhahabi concurred with him.
