The Book of Du'a (Supplications)
Issues regarding Supplications, their Virtues and Supplications of the Prophet (ﷺ)
وَعَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ، رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: "كَانَ مِنْ دُعَاءِ دَاوُدَ عَلَيْهِ السلام: "اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ حُبَّكَ، وَحُبَّ مَنْ يُحِبُّكَ، وَالْعَمَلَ الَّذِي يُبَلِّغُنِي حُبَّكَ، اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْ حُبَّكَ أَحَبَّ إِلَىَّ مِنْ نَفْسِي، وَأَهْلِي، وَمِنَ الْمَاءِ الْبَارِدِ". رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ وَقَالَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَن.
Abud-Darda' (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "One of Prophet (ﷺ) Dawud's supplications was: 'Allahumma inni as'aluka hubbaka, wa hubba man yuhibbuka, wal-'amalalladhi yuballighuni hubbaka. Allahumm-aj'al hubbaka ahabba ilayya min nafsi, wa ahli, wa minal-ma'il-baridi (O Allah! I ask You for Your Love, the love of those who love You, and deeds which will cause me to attain Your Love. O Allah! Make Your Love dearer to me than myself, my family and the cold water)."' [At- Tirmidhi].
