حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عِيسَى بْنِ يَزِيدَ الْبَغْدَادِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ بَكْرٍ السَّهْمِيُّ وَحَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُنِيرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بَكْرٍ عَنْ فَائِدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي أَوْفَى قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ:
«مَنْ كَانَتْ لَهُ إِلَى اللَّهِ حَاجَةٌ أَوْ إِلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْ بَنِي آدَمَ، فَلْيَتَوَضَّأْ وَلْيُحْسِنِ الْوُضُوءَ، ثُمَّ لْيُصَلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ، ثُمَّ لْيُثْنِ عَلَى اللَّهِ وَلْيُصَلِّ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، ثُمَّ لْيَقُلْ: لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ الْحَلِيمُ الْكَرِيمُ، سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ، الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ، أَسْأَلُكَ مُوجِبَاتِ رَحْمَتِكَ، وَعَزَائِمَ مَغْفِرَتِكَ، وَالْغَنِيمَةَ مِنْ كُلِّ بِرٍّ، وَالسَّلاَمَةَ مِنْ كُلِّ إِثْمٍ، لاَ تَدَعْ لِي ذَنْبًا إِلاَّ غَفَرْتَهُ، وَلاَ هَمًّا إِلاَّ فَرَّجْتَهُ، وَلاَ حَاجَةً هِيَ لَكَ رِضًا إِلاَّ قَضَيْتَهَا، يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ»

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whoever has a need from Allah or from one of the children of Adam, let him perform wudu and perform the wudu well, then let him pray two rakahs, then let him praise Allah and send prayers upon the Prophet ﷺ, then let him say: lā ilāha illā allāh al-ḥalīm al-karīm, subḥān allāhi rabbi al-ʿarshi al-ʿaẓīm, al-ḥamdu li-llāhi rabbi al-ʿālamīn. asʾaluka mūjibāti raḥmatik, wa-ʿazāʾima maghfiratik, wa-al-ghanīmata min kulli birr, wa-al-salāmata min kulli ithm. lā tadaʿ lī dhanban illā ghafartah, wa-lā hamman illā farrajtah, wa-lā ḥājatan hiya laka riḍan illā qaḍaytahā, yā arḥama al-rāḥimīn (There is no god but Allah, the Forbearing, the Generous. Glory be to Allah, Lord of the Magnificent Throne. Praise belongs to Allah, Lord of the worlds. I ask You for the means that bring Your mercy, the firm resolve that brings Your forgiveness, the gain of every act of righteousness, and safety from every sin. Do not leave any sin of mine except that You forgive it, nor any worry except that You relieve it, nor any need that is pleasing to You except that You fulfill it, O Most Merciful of the merciful.)
Notes
Abu Isa said: This hadith is hasan gharib, and there is some criticism regarding its chain of transmission. Faid b. Abd al-Rahman is considered weak in hadith, and Faid is Abu al-Warqa.
قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ وَفِي إِسْنَادِهِ مَقَالٌ فَائِدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ يُضَعَّفُ فِي الْحَدِيثِ وَفَائِدٌ هُوَ أَبُو الْوَرْقَاءِ

غريب وفي إسناده مقال
machine translationGharīb, and there is some criticism (maqāl) of its chain of transmission.
in جامع الترمذي, p. 489 - Bazzār
وهذا الحديث إنما ذكرناه عن فايد وإن كان فايد ليس بالقوي لأنا لم نحفظ لفظ هذا الحديث عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم إلا من هذا الوجه بهذا الإسناد فلذلك ذكرناه
machine translationWe mentioned this hadith only on the authority of Fāyid, even though Fāyid is not strong (laysa bi-l-qawī), because we have not preserved the wording of this hadith from the Prophet ﷺ except through this route with this chain of transmission. For that reason we mentioned it.
