أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ، – يَعْنِي الشَّحَّامَ – قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمٌ، – يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ – أَنَّهُ كَانَ سَمِعَ وَالِدَهُ، يَقُولُ فِي دُبُرِ الصَّلاَةِ “ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْكُفْرِ وَالْفَقْرِ وَعَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ ” . فَجَعَلْتُ أَدْعُو بِهِنَّ فَقَالَ يَا بُنَىَّ أَنَّى عُلِّمْتَ هَؤُلاَءِ الْكَلِمَاتِ قُلْتُ يَا أَبَتِ سَمِعْتُكَ تَدْعُو بِهِنَّ فِي دُبُرِ الصَّلاَةِ فَأَخَذْتُهُنَّ عَنْكَ . قَالَ فَالْزَمْهُنَّ يَا بُنَىَّ فَإِنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ يَدْعُو بِهِنَّ فِي دُبُرِ الصَّلاَةِ .
Muslim – meaning bin Abi Bakrah – narrated that:
He heard his father say following the prayer: “Allahumma inni a’udhu bika minal-kufri wal-faqri, wa ‘adhabil-qabri (O Allah, I seek refuge with You from Kufr, poverty and the torment of the grave.)” I started to recite them and he said: “O my son, where did you learn these words?” I said: “O my father, I heard you saying this supplication at the end of the prayer, and I learned them from you.” He said: “Continue to recite them, O my son, for the Prophet of Allah [SAW] used to say this supplication at the end of the prayer.”
