72) Chapter: The Supplication: “O Allah, Indeed, I Ask You For Guidance, Piety, Chastity, and Sufficiency”
Abu Ad-Darda narrated that :
the Messenger of Allah said: “It used to be from the supplication of Dawud that he would say: ‘O Allah, indeed, I ask You for Your love and the love of those who love You, and for the action that will cause me to attain Your love, O Allah, make You love more beloved to me than myself, my family and cold water (Allahumma Inni-As’aluka Hubbaka Wa Hubba Man Yuhibbuka Wal-Amalalladhi Yuballighuni Hubbak. Allahummaj’al Hubbaka Ahabba IlaiyaMin Nafsi, Wa Ahli Wa Minal-Ma’il-Barid)He said: “And when the Prophet would mention Dawud, he would narrate about him, saying: “He was the best in worship out of all men.”
