"When Sulaiman bin Dawud finished building Bait Al-Maqdis, he asked Allah for three things: Judgement that was in harmony with His judgement, and he was given that. And he asked Allah for a dominion that no one after him would have, and he was given that. And when he finished building the Masjid he asked Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, that no one should come to it, intending only to pray there, but he would emerge free of sin as the day his mother bore him."

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَّ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ دَاوُدَ ﷺ لَمَّا بَنَى بَيْتَ الْمَقْدِسِ سَأَلَ اللَّهَ ﷻ خِلاَلاً ثَلاَثَةً سَأَلَ اللَّهَ ﷻ حُكْمًا يُصَادِفُ حُكْمَهُ فَأُوتِيَهُ وَسَأَلَ اللَّهَ ﷻ مُلْكًا لاَ يَنْبَغِي لأَحَدٍ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ فَأُوتِيَهُ وَسَأَلَ اللَّهَ ﷻ حِينَ فَرَغَ مِنْ بِنَاءِ الْمَسْجِدِ أَنْ لاَ يَأْتِيَهُ أَحَدٌ لاَ يَنْهَزُهُ إِلاَّ الصَّلاَةُ فِيهِ أَنْ يُخْرِجَهُ مِنْ خَطِيئَتِهِ كَيَوْمِ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ

“When Sulaiman bin Dawud finished building Baitil-Maqdis, he asked Allah for three things: judgment that was in harmony with His judgment, a dominion that no one after him would have, and that no one should come to this mosque, intending only to pray there, but he would emerge free of sin as the day his mother bore him.” The Prophet ﷺ said: “Two prayers were granted, and I hope that the third was also granted.”

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ لَمَّا فَرَغَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ مِنْ بِنَاءِ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ سَأَلَ اللَّهَ ثَلاَثًا حُكْمًا يُصَادِفُ حُكْمَهُ وَمُلْكًا لاَ يَنْبَغِي لأَحَدٍ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ وَأَلاَّ يَأْتِيَ هَذَا الْمَسْجِدَ أَحَدٌ لاَ يُرِيدُ إِلاَّ الصَّلاَةَ فِيهِ إِلاَّ خَرَجَ مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ كَيَوْمَ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَمَّا اثْنَتَانِ فَقَدْ أُعْطِيَهُمَا وَأَرْجُو أَنْ يَكُونَ قَدْ أُعْطِيَ الثَّالِثَةَ

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, saying, "Indeed, Solomon, son of David, peace be upon both of them, asked Allah for three things and He gave him two, and I hope that He gave him the third. He asked for judgment that aligned with Allah's judgment and He granted it to him. He asked for a kingdom that no one would have after him, and He granted it to him. And he asked for anyone who leaves his house, desiring nothing but to pray in this mosque, meaning the Masjid al-Aqsa, to be forgiven of his sins as if he was born on the same day." The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said, "And we hope that Allah has granted him that." Abdullah is the son of Firuz, a trustworthy person.

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «إِنَّ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ دَاوُدَ عَلَيْهِمَا السَّلَامُ سَأَلَ اللَّهَ ثَلَاثًا فَأَعْطَاهُ اثْنَتَيْنِ وَأَنَا أَرْجُو أَنْ يَكُونَ أَعْطَاهُ الثَّالِثَةَ؛ سَأَلَهُ حُكْمًا يُصَادِفُ حُكْمَهُ فَأَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهُ وَسَأَلَهُ مُلْكًا لَا يَنْبَغِي لِأَحَدٍ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ فَأَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهُ وَسَأَلَهُ أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ خَرَجَ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ لَا يُرِيدُ إِلَّا الصَّلَاةَ فِي هَذَا الْمَسْجِدِ يَعْنِي بَيْتَ الْمَقْدِسِ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ خَطِيئَتِهِ كَيَوْمِ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ» قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «وَنَحْنُ نَرْجُو أَنْ يَكُونَ اللَّهُ قَدْ أَعْطَاهُ ذَلِكَ» عبد الله هو ابن فيروز ثقة

[Machine] Narrated by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , Sulaiman ibn Dawud asked Allah the Almighty three times and He granted him two (requests). I hope that He also granted him the third one. He asked for a kingdom that no one after him would deserve, so Allah granted it to him. He asked for a judgment that would be in accordance with his own judgment, so Allah granted it to him. He asked for anyone who comes to this House (Kaaba) with the intention of praying in it, to exit it as he was when his mother gave birth to him. And the Prophet ﷺ said, "I hope that He also granted him the third (request)."

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَنَّ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ دَاوُدَ سَأَلَ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى ثَلَاثًا فَأَعْطَاهُ اثْنَتَيْنِ وَأَرْجُو أَنْ يَكُونَ قَدْ أَعْطَاهُ الثَّالِثَةَ سَأَلَهُ مُلْكًا لَا يَنْبَغِي لِأَحَدٍ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ فَأَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهُ وَسَأَلَهُ حُكْمًا يُوَاطِئُ حُكْمَهُ فَأَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهُ وَسَأَلَهُ مَنْ أَتَى هَذَا الْبَيْتَ يُرِيدُ بَيْتَ الْمَقْدِسِ لَا يُرِيدُ إِلَّا الصَّلَاةَ فِيهِ أَنْ يَخْرُجَ مِنْهُ كَيَوْمَ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ» فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «وَأَرْجُو أَنْ يَكُونَ قَدْ أَعْطَاهُ الثَّالِثَ»

[Machine] From the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , he said, "Indeed, Sulaiman ibn Dawood asked Allah for three things, and He gave him two and I hope that He gave him the third. He asked Him for a kingdom that no one after him would be deserving of, and He gave it to him. He asked Him for judgment that would be in line with His own judgment, and He gave it to him. And he asked Him for anyone who comes to this House (the Kaaba) desiring the House of Jerusalem (Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa) and wishing nothing but to pray in it, to be absolved of his sins as the day his mother gave birth to him." The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, "And I hope that He gave him the third."

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ دَاوُدَ سَأَلَ اللَّهَ ثَلَاثًا أَعْطَاهُ اثْنَتَيْنِ وَأَرْجُو أَنْ يَكُونَ قَدْ أَعْطَاهُ الثَّالِثَةَ سَأَلَهُ مُلْكًا لَا يَنْبَغِي لِأَحَدٍ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ فَأَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهُ وَسَأَلَهُ حُكْمًا يُواطِئُ حُكْمَهُ فَأَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهُ وَسَأَلَهُ مَنْ أَتَى هَذَا الْبَيْتَ يُرِيدُ بَيْتَ الْمَقْدِسِ لَا يُرِيدُ إِلَّا الصَّلَاةَ فِيهِ أَنْ يَخْرُجَ مِنْ خَطِيئَتِهِ كَيَوْمِ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ» قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «وَأَرْجُو أَنْ يَكُونَ قَدْ أَعْطَاهُ الثَّالِثَةَ»

And he asked Allah for a dominion that no one after him would have, and he was given that. And when he finished building the Masjid he asked Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, that no one should come to it, intending only to pray there, but he would emerge free of sin as the day his mother bore him." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 693)

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ دَاوُدَ لَمَّا بَنَى مَسْجِدَ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ سَأَلَ اللهَ خِلِالًا ثَلَاثَةً سَأَلَ اللهَ حُكْمًا يُصَادِفُ حُكْمَهُ فَأُوتِيَهُ وَسَأَلَ اللهَ مُلْكًا لَا يَنْبَغِي لِأَحَدٍ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ فَأُوتِيَهُ وَسَأَلَ اللهَ حِينَ فَرَغَ مِنْ بِنَاءِ الْمَسْجِدِ أَنْ لَا يَأْتِيَهُ أَحَدٌ لَا يَنْهَزُهُ إِلَّا الصَّلَاةُ فِيهِ أَنْ يُخْرِجَهُ مِنْ خَطِيئَتِهِ كَيَوْمِ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ
