Duas of Abdullah b. Masud

adab:630 – ʿUmar b. Ḥafṣ from his father > al-Aʿmash > Shaqīq

Abdullah ˹b. Masud˺ used to use these duas a lot: 

Our Lord, make peace between us and guide us on the path of Islam. Save us from the darkness to the light. Remove acts of deviance from us, both open and hidden. Bless us in our hearing, our eyes, our hearts, our spouses and our children and turn to us for You are the Oft-Returning, Most Merciful. Make us grateful for Your blessings and make us among those who praise it and speak of it and complete it upon us.

الأدب المفرد:٦٣٠ – حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شَقِيقٌ قَالَ

كَانَ عَبْدُ اللهِ يُكْثِرُ أَنْ يَدْعُوَ بِهَؤُلاَءِ الدَّعَوَاتِ: 

(رَبَّنَا أَصْلِحْ بَيْنَنَا وَاهْدِنَا سَبِيلَ الإِسْلاَمِ، وَنَجِّنَا مِنَ الظُّلُمَاتِ إِلَى النُّورِ، وَاصْرِفْ عَنَّا الْفَوَاحِشَ مَا ظَهْرَ مِنْهَا وَمَا بَطَنَ، وَبَارِكْ لَنَا فِي أَسْمَاعِنَا وَأَبْصَارِنَا وَقُلُوبِنَا وَأَزْوَاجِنَا وَذُرِّيَّاتِنَا، وَتُبْ عَلَيْنَا إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيمُ، وَاجْعَلْنَا شَاكِرِينَ لِنِعْمَتِكَ، مُثْنِينَ بِهَا، قَائِلِينَ بِهَا، وَأَتْمِمْهَا عَلَيْنَا.)

abudawud:969 – Tamīm b. al-Muntaṣir > Isḥāq / Ibn Yūsuf > Sharīk > Abū Isḥāq > Abū al-Aḥwaṣ > ʿAbdullāh

We did not know what we should say when we sat during prayer. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was taught (by Allah). He then narrated the tradition to the same effect. Sharik reported from Jami', from AbuWa'il on the authority of Abdullah ibn Mas'ud something similar. He said: He used to teach us also some other words, but he did not teach them as he taught us the tashahhud: O Allah, join our hearts, mend our social relationship, guide us to the path of peace, bring us from darkness to light, save us from obscenities, outward or inward, and bless our ears, our eyes, our hearts, our wives, our children, and relent toward us; Thou art the Relenting, the Merciful. And make us grateful for Thy blessing and make us praise it while accepting it and give it to us in full.

أبو داود:٩٦٩ – حَدَّثَنَا تَمِيمُ بْنُ الْمُنْتَصِرِ أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ يُوسُفَ عَنْ شَرِيكٍ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ أَبِي الأَحْوَصِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ

كُنَّا لاَ نَدْرِي مَا نَقُولُ إِذَا جَلَسْنَا فِي الصَّلاَةِ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَدْ عَلِمَ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ قَالَ شَرِيكٌ وَحَدَّثَنَا جَامِعٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ شَدَّادٍ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بِمِثْلِهِ قَالَ وَكَانَ يُعَلِّمُنَا كَلِمَاتٍ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ يُعَلِّمُنَاهُنَّ كَمَا يُعَلِّمُنَا التَّشَهُّدَ اللَّهُمَّ أَلِّفْ بَيْنَ قُلُوبِنَا وَأَصْلِحْ ذَاتَ بَيْنِنَا وَاهْدِنَا سُبُلَ السَّلاَمِ وَنَجِّنَا مِنَ الظُّلُمَاتِ إِلَى النُّورِ وَجَنِّبْنَا الْفَوَاحِشَ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَمَا بَطَنَ وَبَارِكْ لَنَا فِي أَسْمَاعِنَا وَأَبْصَارِنَا وَقُلُوبِنَا وَأَزْوَاجِنَا وَذُرِّيَّاتِنَا وَتُبْ عَلَيْنَا إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيمُ وَاجْعَلْنَا شَاكِرِينَ لِنِعْمَتِكَ مُثْنِينَ بِهَا قَابِلِيهَا وَأَتِمَّهَا عَلَيْنَا
