Question

Kindly mention the reference for this narration

“The great companion, Sayyiduna Abu Musa (radiyallahu ‘anhu) would recite the following after Salah”:

اللهم اغفر لي ذنبي، ويسر لي أمري، وبارك لي في رزقي

 

Answer

Imam Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah (rahimahullah) has recorded this narration.

“When Abu Musa [Al ‘Ash’ari] (radiyallahu ‘anhu) would complete his Salah, he would recite”:

اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي ذَنْبِي، وَيَسِّرْ لِي أَمْرِي، وَبَارِكْ لِي فِي رِزْقِي

Allahummagh fir li dhambi wa yassir li amri wa barik li fi rizqi

(Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah, Hadith: 3050 and 29865)

Translation

O Allah! Forgive my sins, make my affairs easy and grant me barakah in my sustenance.

Sayyiduna ‘Abu Musa Al Ash’ari (radiyallahu ‘anhu) himself has also reported a narration which states [in some narrations] that Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) would recite a similar du’a after Salah. (Kitabud Du’a of Imam Tabarani, Hadith: 656). See here.

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
