Remembrance 3 from Chapter 144
The adhkār of the ṣalāh of need
Allāhumma innī as’aluka wa atawajjahu ilayka bi-Nabiyyika Muḥammad, Nabiyyi-r-raḥmah ṣalla-llāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam. Yā Muḥammadu innī tawajjahtu bika ilā Rabbī fī ḥājatī hādhihi li-tuqḍā lī, Allāhumma fa-shaffi‘hu fiyy.
We relate in the books of at-Tirmidhī and Ibn Mājah from ‘Uthmān ibn Ḥunayf 
, who narrated that a blind man came to the Prophet 
and said: “Supplicate to Allah to cure me.” He replied: “If you want, I will supplicate; or if you want, you can have patience and it will be better for you.” [The man] said: “Supplicate.” He [the Prophet ] told him to make wuḍū’ and to supplicate with this du‘ā’: “O Allah, I ask You and I turn to You through Your Prophet Muḥammad, the Prophet of Mercy. O Muḥammad, I have turned to my Lord through you in this need of mine, that it may be fulfilled for me. O Allah, let him intercede for me.” [2].At-Tirmidhī states that this hadith is ḥasan ṣaḥīḥ.
