It is narrated from Hazrat Tariq (may Allah be pleased with him) that when someone came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah! When I supplicate to my Lord, what should I say?" the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would say, "Say this: «اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي، وَارْحَمْنِي، وَاهْدِنِي، وَارْزُقنِي» 'O Allah! Forgive me, have mercy on me, grant me guidance, and provide for me.'" After that, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) extended his thumb and folded the remaining four fingers, and said, "These things are comprehensive for both this world and the Hereafter."
