The Prophet ﷺ came to me while I was praying when he needed something. I was taking a long time and he said: ''Aishah, you must make concise and comprehensive duas." When I finished, I asked: Messenger of Allah, what are the concise and comprehensive duas?' He said, "Say:
allāhumma innī asʾaluka min al-khayri kullihī, ʿājilihi wa-ājilihī, mā ʿalimtu minhu wa-mā lam aʿlam. wa-aʿūdhu bika min al-sharri kullihī, ʿājilihi wa-ājilihī, mā ʿalimtu minhu wa-mā lam aʿlam. wa-asʾaluka al-jannata wa-mā qarraba ilayhā min qawlin aw ʿamal, wa-aʿūdhu bika min al-nāri wa-mā qarraba ilayhā min qawlin aw ʿamal. wa-asʾaluka mimmā saʾalaka bihī Muḥammadun ﷺ, wa-aʿūdhu bika mimmā taʿawwadhā minhu Muḥammadun ﷺ. wa-mā qaḍayta lī min qaḍāʾin fa-ijʿal ʿāqibatahu rushdā.
O Allah, I ask You for all good, ˹in this world and the Hereafter˺, what I know of it and what I do not know. I seek refuge with You from all evil, ˹in this world and the Hereafter˺ what I know of it and what I do not know. I ask You for the Jannah and whatever words or actions bring one near to it. I seek refuge with You from the Hellfire and whatever words or actions bring one near to it. I ask You by what Muhammad ﷺ asked You and I seek refuge from You by what Muhammad ﷺ sought refuge from. And whatever fate You have decreed for me, make its end right guidance ˹for me˺."
دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَأَنَا أُصَلِّي وَلَهُ حَاجَةٌ فَأَبْطَأْتُ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ: «يَا عَائِشَةُ، عَلَيْكِ بِجُمَلِ الدُّعَاءِ وَجَوَامِعِهِ» فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفْتُ قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَمَا جُمَلُ الدُّعَاءِ وَجَوَامِعُهُ؟ قَالَ: قُولِي
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ كُلِّهِ عَاجِلِهِ وَآجِلِهِ مَا عَلِمْتُ مِنْهُ وَمَا لَمْ أَعْلَمْ وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الشَّرِّ كُلِّهِ عَاجِلِهِ وَآجِلِهِ مَا عَلِمْتُ مِنْهُ وَمَا لَمْ أَعْلَمُ وَأَسْأَلُكَ الْجَنَّةَ وَمَا قَرَّبَ إِلَيْهَا مِنْ قَوْلٍ أَوْ عَمَلٍ وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ النَّارِ وَمَا قَرَّبَ إِلَيْهَا مِنْ قَوْلٍ أَوْ عَمَلٍ وَأَسْأَلُكَ مِمَّا سَأَلَكَ بِهِ مُحَمَّدٌ ﷺ وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِمَّا تَعَوَّذَ مِنْهُ مُحَمَّدٌ ﷺ وَمَا قَضَيْتَ لِي مِنْ قَضَاءٍ فَاجْعَلْ عَاقِبَتَهُ رُشْدًا»
