It is narrated from Sayyiduna Suhayb bin Sinan (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to make this supplication: 'Allahumma innaka lasta bi-ilahin istahdathnahu, wa la bi-rabbin ibtada'nahu, wa la kana lana qablaka min ilahin nalja'u ilayhi wa nadharuk, wa la a'anaka 'ala khalqina ahadun fa-nushrikahu fik, tabarakta wa ta'alayt' (O Allah, You are not a deity whom we have newly contrived, nor a lord whom we have invented; nor did we have any god before You to whom we would turn for refuge and leave You; nor did anyone help You in creating us so that we should make him a partner with You. You are Blessed and Exalted). Ka'b al-Ahbar says that the Prophet of Allah, Sayyiduna Dawud (peace be upon him), also used to make this supplication. The chain of this hadith is sahih (authentic), but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.
