3482. 'Abdullāh bin 'Amr narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ used to say: "O Allāh, I seek refuge in You from a heart that does not humble itself, and from a supplication that is not heard, and from a soul that is never satisfied, and from knowledge that does not benefit, I seek refuge in You from these four (Allāhumma! Innī A'ūdhu Bika Min Qalbin Lā Yakhsa'u, Wa Min Du'ā'in La Yusma'u, Wa Min Nafsin Lā Tashba'u, Wa Min 'Ilmin Lā Yanfa'u, A'ūdhu Bika Min Hā'ulā'il-Arba')."(Ḥasan)
[He said:] And there are narrations on this topic from Jābir, Abū Hurairah and Ibn Mas'ūd.
[He said:] And this Hadīth is Ḥasan Ṣāḥih, Gharib from this route [as a narration of 'Abdullāh bin 'Amr].

Commentary
This narration shows that for the approval and acceptance of a supplication, the heart should be filled with fear of Allāh ﷺ, and one should be submissive
and humble before Allāh ﷻ and he should also be confident and sure that his supplication will be answered. Supplication should be made for the increase in one's knowledge. One should also seek refuge in Allāh ﷻ from greediness.
