Riyad as-Salihin, 1467
Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The supplication most often recited by the Prophet (ﷺ) was: "Allahumma atina fid-dunya hasanatan, wa fil-akhirati hasanatan, wa qina 'adhab-annar (O our Rubb! give us in this world that which is good and in the Hereafter that which is good, and save us from the punishment of the Fire)."' <b>[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]</b>. In the narration of Muslim it is added that whenever Anas supplicated, he used to beseech Allah with this Du'a.
وعن أنس رضي الله عنه، قال: كان أكثر دعاء النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم:
اللهم آتنا في الدنيا حسنة، وفي الآخرة حسنة، وقنا عذاب النار
((متفق عليه)). زاد مسلم في روايته قال: وكان أنس إذا أراد أن يدعو بدعوة دعا بها، وإذا أراد أن يدعو بدعاء دعا بها فيه.
