The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to say: "O Allah, I seek refuge in Thee from four things: Knowledge which does not profit, a heart which is not submissive, a soul which has an insatiable appetite, and a supplication which is not heard." (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1548)  

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْأَرْبَعِ مِنْ عِلْمٍ لَا يَنْفَعُ وَمِنْ قَلْبٍ لَا يَخْشَعُ وَمِنْ نَفْسٍ لَا تَشْبَعُ وَمِنْ دُعَاءٍ لَا يُسْمَعُ  

that the Prophet ﷺ used to supplicate through these supplications: "O Allah, (1) I seek refuge in You from knowledge that is of no benefit, (2) a heart that is not fearful ˹of You˺, (3) a supplication that is not heard ˹by You˺, and (4) a self that is not satisfied."

He said: Then he would say: "O Allah, I seek refuge in You from these four ˹things˺."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَدْعُو بِهَذِهِ الدَّعَوَاتِ «اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ (١) عِلْمٍ لَا يَنْفَعُ، (٢) وَقَلْبٍ لَا يَخْشَعُ، (٣) وَدُعَاءٍ لَا يُسْمَعُ، (٤) وَنَفْسٍ لَا تَشْبَعُ۔»

قَالَ: ثُمَّ يَقُولُ «اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ هَؤُلَاءِ الْأَرْبَعِ۔»
