that Ḥuṣayn or Ḥaṣīn came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: O Muḥammad, ʿAbdulmuṭṭalib was better for the people than you: he used to feed them liver and humps and you slaughter them. The Prophet ﷺ then said to him what Allah willed he would said, then he said to him, "What do you order me to say?" He said, "Say, O Allah protect me from the evil of my own self and guide me to the best of my affairs."

He said, he then left and then the man accepted Islam, then he came and said: I came to you and you told me to say 'O Allah protect me from the evil of my self and give me guide me to the best of my affairs,' what should I say now? He said, "Say, O Allah forgive what ˹I done˺ in secret and in public, and for the sins ˹I've committed˺ and the intentional ˹wrong˺ I committed, and what ˹what I did˺ knowingly and unknowingly."  

أَنَّ حُصَيْنًا أَوْ حَصِينًا أَتَى رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ لَعَبْدُ الْمُطَّلِبِ كَانَ خَيْرًا لِقَوْمِهِ مِنْكَ؛ كَانَ يُطْعِمُهُمُ الْكَبِدَ وَالسَّنَامَ وَأَنْتَ تَنْحَرُهُمْ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ أَنْ يَقُولَ فَقَالَ لَهُ مَا تَأْمُرُنِي أَنْ أَقُولَ؟ قَالَ: «قُلِ اللهُمَّ قِنِي شَرَّ نَفْسِي وَاعْزِمْ لِي عَلَى أَرْشَدِ أَمْرِي۔»

قَالَ: فَانْطَلَقَ فَأَسْلَمَ الرَّجُلُ ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَقَالَ: إِنِّي أَتَيْتُكَ فَقُلْتَ لِي قُلِ اللهُمَّ قِنِي شَرَّ نَفْسِي وَاعْزِمْ لِي عَلَى أَرْشَدِ أَمْرِي، فَمَا أَقُولُ الْآنَ؟ قَالَ: «قُلِ اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي مَا أَسْرَرْتُ وَمَا أَعْلَنْتُ، وَمَا أَخْطَأْتُ وَمَا عَمَدْتُ، وَمَا عَلِمْتُ وَمَا جَهِلْتُ۔»  

[Machine] "He came to the Prophet ﷺ before embracing Islam. When he wanted to leave, he asked, "What should I say?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Say, 'O Allah, protect me from the evil of myself and guide me to do what is right.' " He said it and then left without embracing Islam. Later, he embraced Islam and asked the Prophet ﷺ, "What should I say now that I have embraced Islam?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Say, 'O Allah, protect me from the evil of myself and guide me to do what is right. O Allah, forgive me for what I have hidden, what I have made public, what I have done mistakenly, what I have done intentionally, what I have known, and what I have been ignorant of.' "  

أَنَّهُ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُسْلِمَ فَلَمَّا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَنْصَرِفَ قَالَ مَا أَقُولُ؟ قَالَ قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ قِنِي شَرَّ نَفْسِي وَاعْزِمْ لِي عَلَى أَرْشِدِ أَمْرِي فَقَالَهَا ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ وَلَمْ يُسْلِمْ ثُمَّ أَسْلَمَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَمَا أَقُولُ الْآنَ وَقَدْ أَسْلَمْتُ؟ قَالَ قُلْ اللَّهُمَّ قِنِي شَرَّ نَفْسِي وَاعْزِمْ لِي عَلَى أَرْشِدِ أَمْرِي اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي مَا أَسْرَرْتُ وَمَا أَعْلَنْتُ وَمَا أَخْطَأْتُ وَمَا عَمَدْتُ وَمَا عَلِمْتُ وَمَا جَهِلْتُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was approached by a man who said, "O Muhammad, Abdul-Muttalib is better for his people than you. He used to give them liver and fat tail for food, while you slaughter animals for them." The Prophet ﷺ replied, "What Allah wills." When the man wanted to leave, he asked, "What should I say?" The Prophet ﷺ advised him to say, "O Allah, protect me from the evil of myself, and help me make the right decisions." The man left without accepting Islam and later returned to the Prophet, saying, "O Messenger of Allah, I came to you and asked you to teach me. You told me to say, "O Allah, protect me from the evil of myself, and help me make the right decisions." Now that I have embraced Islam, what should I say?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Say, "O Allah, protect me from the evil of myself, and help me make the right decisions. O Allah, forgive me for what I have concealed, what I have disclosed, what I have erred, what I have done deliberately, and what I have done unknowingly."

[Machine] Husayn came to the Prophet ﷺ before embracing Islam and said, "O Muhammad, Abd al-Muttalib was better for your people than you. He used to feed them liver and meat, while you slaughter them." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "May Allah say what He wills." Then Husayn said, "O Muhammad, what do you order me to say?" He said, "You say, 'O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the evil of myself and ask You to determine the right course for me.' " Then Husayn embraced Islam. Afterwards, he came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "I asked you the first time and I say it now, what do you order me to say?" He said, "Say, 'O Allah, forgive what I have kept secret and what I have declared, and what I have erred in, and what I have been ignorant of, and what I have known.'"
