حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي شَهْرٌ (١) ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ، تُحَدِّثُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يُكْثِرُ فِي دُعَائِهِ أَنْ يَقُولَ: " اللهُمَّ مُقَلِّبَ الْقُلُوبِ، ثَبِّتْ قَلْبِي عَلَى دِينِكَ ". قَالَتْ:، ، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَوَ إِنَّ الْقُلُوبَ لَتَتَقَلَّبُ؟ قَالَ: " نَعَمْ، مَا مِنْ خَلْقِ اللهِ مِنْ بَنِي آدَمَ مِنْ بَشَرٍ إِلَّا أَنَّ (١) قَلْبَهُ بَيْنَ أُصْبُعَيْنِ مِنْ أَصَابِعِ اللهِ، فَإِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَقَامَهُ، وَإِنْ شَاءَ أَزَاغَهُ (٢) ، فَنَسْأَلُ اللهَ رَبَّنَا أَنْ لَا يُزِيغَ قُلُوبَنَا بَعْدَ إِذْ هَدَانَا، وَنَسْأَلُهُ أَنْ يَهَبَ لَنَا مِنْ لَدُنْهُ رَحْمَةً، إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْوَهَّابُ "، قَالَتْ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَلَا تُعَلِّمُنِي دَعْوَةً أَدْعُو بِهَا لِنَفْسِي؟ قَالَ: " بَلَى (٣) ، قُولِي: اللهُمَّ رَبَّ النَّبِيِّ مُحَمَّدٍ (٤) ، اغْفِرْ لِي ذَنْبِي، وَأَذْهِبْ غَيْظَ قَلْبِي، وَأَجِرْنِي مِنْ مُضِلَّاتِ الْفِتَنِ مَا أَحْيَيْتَنَا " (٥)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (ﷺ) used to frequently make this supplication: "O Allah, Turner of the hearts, keep my heart firm upon Your religion." I asked, "O Messenger of Allah, are hearts also turned?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "Yes, Allah has created the heart of every human being between two of His fingers. If He wills, He keeps it straight, and if He wills, He turns it aside. That is why we supplicate to Allah: 'Our Lord, do not let our hearts deviate after You have guided us,' and we ask Him for mercy from Himself. Surely, He is the Bestower." I asked, "O Messenger of Allah, will you not teach me a supplication that I may recite for myself?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Why not? You should say: 'O Allah, O Lord of the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ), forgive my sins, remove the anger from my heart, and protect me from every misleading trial as long as You grant me life.'"
