It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that once the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Last night, in a dream, I saw my Lord in the best form and appearance, which I consider the best. My Lord said to me: 'O Muhammad! (peace and blessings be upon him), do you know what the angels of the highest assembly are disputing about?' I replied: No. Upon this, my Lord placed His blessed hand between my shoulders, the coolness of which I felt in my chest, and by its blessing, I gained knowledge of all things between the earth and the heavens. Then Allah said: 'O Muhammad! Do you know what the angels of the highest assembly are disputing about?' I replied: Yes! They are disputing about the expiations and the ranks. He asked: 'What is meant by expiations?' I replied: 'Staying in the mosque after the prayers, walking to Friday prayer on foot, and performing ablution properly despite difficulties (such as in cold weather). Whoever does this, his life will be good and his death will be good, and he will be cleansed of his sins as if his mother had given birth to him today.' And O Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)! When you pray, recite this supplication: «اَللّٰهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ الْخَيْرَاتِ وَتَرْكَ الْمُنْكَرَاتِ وَحُبَّ الْمَسَاكِينِ وَإِذَا أَرَدْتَ بِعِبَادِكَ فِتْنَةً أَنْ تَقْبِضَنِي إِلَيْكَ غَيْرَ مَفْتُونٍ» 'O Allah! I ask You for good deeds, I seek refuge from sins, and I ask for the love of the poor, and that when You wish to test Your servants, take me to Yourself without being afflicted by that trial.' The narrator says that by ranks is meant feeding others, spreading peace (greetings), and praying at night when people are asleep."
