Question

Kindly inform me regarding the authenticity of the du’a that Jibril (‘alayhis salam) taught to Nabi Yusuf (‘alayhis salam):

Allahummaj ‘al li fi amri farajaw wa makhraja warzuqni min haythu la ahtasibu.

 

Answer

Imam Abu Bakr ibn Abid Dunya (rahimahullah) has recorded this narration with a weak chain.

(Al Faraju Ba’dash Shiddah: 40)

The complete du’a that Jibril (‘alayhis salam) taught Nabi Yusuf (‘alayhis salam) is as follows:

اللّٰهُمَّ يَا شَاهِدًا غَيْرَ غَائِبٍ، وَيَا قَرِيبًا غَيْرَ بَعِيدٍ، وَيَا غَالِبًا غَيْرَ مَغْلُوبٍ، اجْعَلْ لِي مِنْ أَمْرِي فَرَجًا وَمَخْرَجًا، وَارْزُقْنِي مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا أَحْتَسِبُ

Allahumma ya Shahidan ghayra Ghaibin wa ya Qariban ghayra ba’idin wa ya Ghaliban ghayra maghlubin, ij’al li min amri farajaw wa makhraja warzuqni min haythu la ahtasibu

Translation: O Allah! O Present Being who is not absent, O Near One who is not distant, O Dominant One who is not overpowered! Grant me relief and a way out from my issue and sustain me from [sources] I did not expect.

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.

التخريج من المصادر العربية

الفرج بعد الشدة لابن أبي الدنيا:
(٤٠)  حدثنا القاسم بن هاشم، نا الخطاب بن عثمان، ثنا محمد بن عمر، عن رجل من أهل الكوفة: «أن جبريل، عليه السلام دخل على يوسف السجن فقال: يا طيب من أدخلك علي هاهنا؟ قال: أنت أدخلتني، قال: قل: «اللهم يا شاهدا غير غائب، ويا قريبا غير بعيد، ويا غالبا غير مغلوب، اجعل لي من أمري فرجا ومخرجا، وارزقني من حيث لا أحتسب».
