عربی (اصل)
حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ عَنْ أَبِي وَهْبٍ الْخَوْلَانِيِّ عَنْ رَجُلٍ قَدْ سَمَّاهُ عَنْ أَبِي بَصْرَةَ الْغِفَارِيِّ صَاحِبِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ رَبِّي عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَرْبَعًا فَأَعْطَانِي ثَلَاثًا وَمَنَعَنِي وَاحِدَةً سَأَلْتُ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْ لَا يَجْمَعَ أُمَّتِي عَلَى ضَلَالَةٍ فَأَعْطَانِيهَا وَسَأَلْتُ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْ لَا يُهْلِكَهُمْ بِالسِّنِينَ كَمَا أَهْلَكَ الْأُمَمَ قَبْلَهُمْ فَأَعْطَانِيهَا وَسَأَلْتُ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْ لَا يَلْبِسَهُمْ شِيَعًا وَيُذِيقَ بَعْضَهُمْ بَأْسَ بَعْضٍ فَمَنَعَنِيهَا.
انگریزی ترجمہ
Yunus told us, he said: Layth told us, from Abu Wahb al-Khawlani, from a man he named, from Abu Basrah al-Ghifari, a companion of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I asked my Lord, Mighty and Sublime, for four things, and He granted me three and withheld one. I asked Allah, Mighty and Sublime, not to let my nation unite upon misguidance, and He granted it to me. I asked Allah, Mighty and Sublime, not to destroy them with years of famine as He destroyed the nations before them, and He granted it to me. And I asked Allah, Mighty and Sublime, not to make them divided into factions and let them taste violence at one another's hands, but He withheld that from me."
