[Machine] I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ during a journey praying eight rak'ahs of Duha prayer. When he finished, he said, "Indeed, I prayed a voluntary prayer out of desire and fear. I asked my Lord three times, and He gave me two and denied me one. I asked Him not to afflict my Ummah with famine for three years, not to make their enemies triumph over them, and not to make the Ummah divided into sects. He granted the first two requests but denied the last one."  

أحمد:١٢٥٨٩حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ غَيْلَانَ حَدَّثَنَا رِشْدِينُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ بُكَيْرٍ عَنِ الضَّحَّاكِ الْقُرَشِيِّ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ

رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ صَلَّى سُبْحَةَ الضُّحَى ثَمَانِ رَكَعَاتٍ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ إِنِّي صَلَّيْتُ صَلَاةَ رَغْبَةٍ وَرَهْبَةٍ سَأَلْتُ رَبِّي ﷻ ثَلَاثًا فَأَعْطَانِي اثْنَتَيْنِ وَمَنَعَنِي وَاحِدَةً سَأَلْتُهُ أَنْ لَا يَبْتَلِيَ أُمَّتِي بِالسِّنِينَ وَلَا يُظْهِرَ عَلَيْهِمْ عَدُوَّهُمْ فَفَعَلَ وَسَأَلْتُهُ أَنْ لَا يَلْبِسَهُمْ شِيَعًا فَأَبَى عَلَيَّ

[Machine] I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while traveling, praying eight units of the Dhuha prayer. When he finished, he said, "I have prayed a prayer out of my own will and fear." Then I asked my Lord three things, and He granted me two and denied me one. I asked Him not to destroy my nation with famine, and He granted it. I asked Him not to let their enemies overcome them, and He granted it. And I asked Him not to let them be divided into factions, but He refused.
