Sunan Ibn Majah 1385

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ سَيَّارٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ الْمَدَنِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ خُزَيْمَةَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ رَجُلًا ضَرِيرَ الْبَصَرِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ ادْعُ اللَّهَ لِي أَنْ يُعَافِيَنِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنْ شِئْتَ أَخَّرْتُ لَكَ وَهُوَ خَيْرٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِنْ شِئْتَ دَعَوْتُ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ ادْعُهْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَتَوَضَّأَ فَيُحْسِنَ وُضُوءَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَيُصَلِّيَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَيَدْعُوَ بِهَذَا الدُّعَاءِ:‏‏‏‏ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ وَأَتَوَجَّهُ إِلَيْكَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ نَبِيِّ الرَّحْمَةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏يَا مُحَمَّدُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏إِنِّي قَدْ تَوَجَّهْتُ بِكَ إِلَى رَبِّي فِي حَاجَتِي هَذِهِ لِتُقْضَى اللَّهُمَّ شَفِّعْهُ فِيَّ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ أَبُو إِسْحَاق:‏‏‏‏ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ.

It was narrated from ‘Uthman bin Hunaif that a blind man came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: “Pray to Allah to heal me.” He said: “If you wish to store your reward for the Hereafter, that is better, or if you wish, I will supplicate for you.” He said: “Supplicate.” So he told him to perform ablution and do it well, and to pray two Rak’ah, and to say this supplication: “Allahumma inni as’aluka wa atawajjahu ilaika bimuhammadin nabiyyir-rahmah. Ya Muhammadu inni qad tawajjahtu bika ila rabbi fi hajati hadhihi lituqda. Allahumma fashaffi’hu fiya (O Allah, I ask of You and I turn my face towards You by virtue of the intercession of Muhammad the Prophet of mercy. O Muhammad, I have turned to my Lord by virtue of your intercession concerning this need of mine so that it may be met. O Allah, accept his intercession concerning me)”
