Qurʾān Ibn Rajab's Fifty Riyāḍ al-Ṣāliḥīn al-Adab al-Mufrad al-Luʾluʾ wa-al-Marjān Bukhārī Muslim Abū Dāwūd Tirmidhī Nasāʾī Ibn Mājah Dārimī Aḥmad Mālik Ḥākim Ibn Ḥibbān Bazzār Ibn Khuzaymah Ṭabarānī Nasāʾī's Kubrá Bayhaqī Aḥmad's Zuhd Suyūṭī

A supplication frequently repeated by Hasan

ahmad-zuhd:1471 – ʿAbdullāh > Aḥmad b. Ibrāhīm > Abū Sufyān al-Ḥimyarī > Sufyān b. Ḥusayn

[AI] Hasan would frequently repeat these two phrases: “O Allah, to You belongs all praise for Your forbearance despite Your knowledge, and to You belongs all praise for Your pardon despite Your power.”

الزهد لأحمد:١٤٧١ – حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سُفْيَانَ الْحِمْيَرِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ قَالَ

كَانَ الْحَسَنُ كَثِيرًا مَا يُرَدِّدُ هَذَيْنِ الْحَرْفَيْنِ: «اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ عَلَى حِلْمِكَ بَعْدَ عِلْمِكَ، وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ عَلَى عَفْوِكَ بَعْدَ قُدْرَتِكَ»
