Hadith record

Hadith.981 - Hafs ibn al-Bakhtari narrated that Imam (as) said: "Noah (as) used to say every morning and evening, "O’ Allah (swt), I bear witness that whatever blessing and well-being I find in my religion or worldly life today or tonight, it is from You alone, without partner. All praise and thanks are due to You for it, until You are pleased and even after You are pleased." He would repeat this phrase ten times every morning and ten times every evening, and so he was called a ‘thankful servant.’ It is also narrated that the Messenger of Allah (sw) used to say after the dawn prayer: Allahumma inni a‘oodhu bika minal-hammi wa al-hazan, wa al-‘ajzi wa al-kasal, wa al-bukhli wa al-jubn, wa dala‘i ad-dayn wa ghalabati ar-rijal, wa bawari al-ayyam, wa al-ghaflati wa adh-dhillati wa al-qaswati wa al-‘aylati wa al-maskana. Wa a‘oodhu bika min nafsin la tashba‘, wa min qalbin la yakhsha‘, wa min ‘aynin la tadma‘, wa min du‘a’in la yusma‘, wa min salatin la tanfa‘. Wa a‘oodhu bika min imra’atin tushayyibuni qabla awani mashibi, wa a‘oodhu bika min waladin yakoonu ‘alayya riba’an, wa a‘oodhu bika min malin yakoonu ‘alayya ‘adhaban, wa a‘oodhu bika min sahib khadi‘atin in ra’a hasanatan dafana-ha, wa in ra’a sayyi’atan afshaha. Allahumma la taj‘al lifajirin ‘indi yadan wa la minnatan "O’ Allah (swt), I seek refuge in You from worry and sorrow, from incapacity and laziness, from stinginess and cowardice, from the burden of debt and oppression by men, from loneliness, heedlessness, humiliation, hardness of heart, poverty, and destitution. I seek refuge in You from a soul that is never satisfied, a heart that does not humble, an eye that does not weep, a prayer that is not heard, and a prayer that does not benefit. I seek refuge in You from a spouse who troubles me before my hair turns grey, from a child who becomes a burden on me, from wealth that becomes a punishment for me, and from a deceitful companion who, when he sees good, hides it, and when he sees bad, spreads it. O’ Allah (swt), do not let a wicked person have favour or influence over me."
