٣٤٨٩ - حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْأَحْوَصِ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ : أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - «كَانَ يَدْعُو اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ الْهُدَى وَالتُّقَى وَالْعَفَافَ وَالْغِنَى». هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

Chastity means to stay away from moral corruption and sufficiency means to be satisfied with what Allāh ﷻ has given and avoiding attractions of this world.
