3586. 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb said: "The Messenger of Allāh taught me, saying: 'Say: "O Allāh, make my secret better than my apparent condition, and make my apparent condition righteous. O Allāh, I ask You for the righteous of what you give to the people, of wealth, wives, and children, not (to be) misguided, nor misguided. (Allāhummaj'al Sarīratī Khairan Min 'Alāniyatī Waj'al 'Alāniyatī Ṣāliḥah. Allāhumma Innī As'aluka Min Ṣālihi Mā Tu'tīn-Nāsa Minal-Mālī Wal-Ahli Wal-Waladi Ghairad-Dālī Wa Lāl-Muḍil)." ( ) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Gharīb, we do not know of it except through this route, and its chain is not strong.

٣٥٨٦ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ، عَنِ ‌الْجَرَّاحِ بْنِ الضَّحَّاكِ الْكِنْدِيِّ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، عَنْ ‌عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُكَيْمٍ ، عَنْ ‌عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ قَالَ: «عَلَّمَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْ سَرِيرَتِي خَيْرًا مِنْ عَلَانِيَتِي»، وَاجْعَلْ عَلَانِيَتِي صَالِحَةً، اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ مِنْ صَالِحِ مَا تُؤْتِي النَّاسَ مِنَ الْمَالِ وَالْأَهْلِ وَالْوَلَدِ غَيْرِ الضَّالِّ وَلَا الْمُضِلِّ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ، وَلَيْسَ إِسْنَادُهُ بِالْقَوِيِّ.
