Beautiful Ahadith

O Allah, direct me to the path of righteousness!

كَانَ الرَّجُلُ إِذَا أَسْلَمَ عَلَّمَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الصَّلَاةَ ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَدْعُوَ بِهَؤُلَاءِ الْكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي وَارْحَمْنِي وَعَافِنِي وَارْزُقْنِي وَيَجْمَعُ أَصَابِعَهُ إِلَّا الْإِبْهَامَ فَإِنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ تَجْمَعُ لَكَ دُنْيَاكَ وَآخِرَتَكَ

2697 صحيح مسلم كتاب الذكر والدعاء والتوبة والاستغفار باب فضل التهليل والتسبيح والدعاء

Whenever a man embraced Islam, the Prophet ﷺ would teach him the prayer. Then, the Prophet instructed him to supplicate with these words,
“O Allah, forgive me, have mercy on me, grant me wellness, and provide for me.”
The Prophet ﷺ brought his fingers together, saying, “Verily, these words encompass your worldly life and your Hereafter.”
Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 2697 (old ref: 6516)^[1]

اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي وَارْحَمْنِي وَاهْدِنِي وَعَافِنِي وَارْزُقْنِي

This version 6515 includes ”guide me”
As above, then:
“O Allah, forgive me (grant me pardon), have mercy on me, guide me (direct me to the path of righteousness), grant me wellness (grant me protection), and provide for me (grant me sustenance).”
Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 2697b (old ref: 6515)

Do not oppress one another!

قَالَ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى يَا عِبَادِي إِنِّي حَرَّمْتُ الظُّلْمَ عَلَى نَفْسِي وَجَعَلْتُهُ بَيْنَكُمْ مُحَرَّمًا فَلَا تَظَالَمُوا

Abu Dharr reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said (shortened version),
“Allah Almighty said: O My servants, I have forbidden injustice for Myself and I have forbidden it among you, so do not oppress one another…
until
O My servants, it is only your deeds that I record and then recompense for you. Let him who finds good praise Allah, and let him who finds something else blame no one but himself.”
Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 2577 ^[2]
