حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَظِيمِ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْجَلِيلِ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِأَبِيهِ: يَا أَبَتِ، إِنِّي أَسْمَعُكَ تَدْعُو كُلَّ غَدَاةٍ: «اللَّهُمَّ عَافِنِي فِي بَدَنِي، اللَّهُمَّ عَافِنِي فِي سَمْعِي، اللَّهُمَّ عَافِنِي فِي بَصَرِي، لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ» تُعِيدُهَا ثَلَاثًا حِينَ تُصْبِحُ وَثَلَاثًا حِينَ تُمْسِي. فَقَالَ: إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَدْعُو بِهِنَّ، فَأَنَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَسْتَنَّ بِسُنَّتِهِ. قَالَ عَبَّاسٌ فِيهِ: وَتَقُولُ: «اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْكُفْرِ وَالْفَقْرِ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ، لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ» تُعِيدُهَا ثَلَاثًا حِينَ تُصْبِحُ وَثَلَاثًا حِينَ تُمْسِي.
‘Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Bakrah said to his father: “Father, I hear you supplicating every morning: ‘O Allah, grant me wellbeing in my body; O Allah, grant me wellbeing in my hearing; O Allah, grant me wellbeing in my sight; there is no god but You,’ repeating it three times in the morning and three times in the evening.” He replied: “I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) supplicate with them, and I love to follow his practice.” Al-‘Abbas adds in his narration: and you say: “O Allah, I seek refuge in You from disbelief and poverty; O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the punishment of the grave; there is no god but You,” repeated three times morning and evening.
