1305. It was narrated from Shaddād bin Aws that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ used to say in his prayer: "Allāhumma innī as'aluka ta-thabbuta fi al-amri wal-'azīmata 'alar-rushdi wa as'aluka shukra ni'matik wa ḥusna 'ibādatik wa as'aluka qalban salīman wa lisānan ṣādiqan wa as'aluka min khairi mā ta'lamu wa a'ūdhu bika min sharri mā ta'lamu wastaghfiruka limā ta'lam (O Allāh, I ask You for steadfastness in all my affairs and determination in following the right path I ask You to make me thankful for Your blessings and to make me worship You properly. I ask You for a sound heart and a truthful tongue. I ask You for the best of what You know and I seek refuge in You from the worst of what You know and I seek Your forgiveness for what You know.)" (Hasan)

Commentary
"Qalban Salīm" signifies the heart which is free from disbelief, polytheism, hypocrisy, and phoniness concerning the rights of Allāh; and in relation to the
rights of men, it signifies the heart that is free from jealousy, grudge, rancor, hatred, greed, covetousness, and infatuation. And Allâh knows best.
