I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "O Allah, I ask You by Your name, the pure, the good, the blessed, the most beloved to You, the name by which when You are called upon, You answer, and when You are asked through it, You give, and when mercy is sought through it, You show mercy, and when relief is sought through it, You grant relief."She said, one day he said, "Ayesha, do you know that Allah has shown me the name by which, when He is called upon, He answers?"I said, "Messenger of Allah, may my father and mother be ransomed for you, teach it to me."He said, "It is not fitting for you, Ayesha."She said, so I withdrew and sat for a while, then I rose and kissed his head and said, "Messenger of Allah, teach it to me."He said, "It is not fitting for me to teach it to you, Ayesha. It is not proper for you to ask through it for anything of this world."She said, so I got up, performed ablution, prayed two units of prayer, then said, "O Allah, I call upon You as Allah, I call upon You as ar-Rahman, I call upon You as al-Barr ar-Raheem, and I call upon You by all Your beautiful names, those I know and those I do not know, that You forgive me and have mercy on me."She said, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ laughed and then said, "It is indeed among the names by which you called upon Him."
حدثنا أبو يوسف الصيدلاني محمد بن أحمد الرقي حدثنا محمد بن سلمة عن الفزاري عن أبي شيبة عن عبد الله بن عكيم الجهني
سمعت رسول الله ﷺ يقول اللهم إني أسألك باسمك الطاهر الطيب المبارك الأحب إليك الذي إذا دعيت به أجبت وإذا سئلت به أعطيت وإذا استرحمت به رحمت وإذا استفرجت به فرجت قالت وقال ذات يوم يا عائشة هل علمت أن الله قد دلني على الاسم الذي إذا دعي به أجاب قالت فقلت يا رسول الله بأبي أنت وأمي فعلمنيه قال إنه لا ينبغي لك يا عائشة قالت فتنحيت وجلست ساعة ثم قمت فقبلت رأسه ثم قلت يا رسول الله علمنيه قال إنه لا ينبغي لك يا عائشة أن أعلمك إنه لا ينبغي لك أن تسألين به شيئا من الدنيا قالت فقمت فتوضأت ثم صليت ركعتين ثم قلت اللهم إني أدعوك الله وأدعوك الرحمن وأدعوك البر الرحيم وأدعوك بأسمائك الحسنى كلها ما علمت منها وما لم أعلم أن تغفر لي وترحمني قالت فاستضحك رسول الله ﷺ ثم قال إنه لفي الأسماء التي دعوت بها
