Hadith 27:57

Abdullah ibn Numayr narrated to us, he said: Uthman ibn Hakim narrated to us, from Amir ibn Sa’d, from his father, that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) came one day from Al-Aliyah. When he passed by the mosque of Banu Mu’awiyah, he entered and prayed two rak'ahs in it, and we prayed with him. He supplicated to his Lord for a long time, then he turned to us and said: "I asked my Lord for three things; He granted me two and withheld one from me. I asked my Lord not to destroy my nation by famine, and He granted it to me. I asked Him not to destroy my nation by drowning, and He granted it to me. And I asked Him not to make their might [or fighting] among themselves, but He refused me."

حدثنا عبد الله بن نمير قال ثنا عثمان بن حكيم عن عامر بن سعد عن أبيه أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم أقبل ذات يوم من العالية حتى إذا مر بمسجد بني معاوية قال دخل فركع فيه ركعتين وصلينا معه ودعا ربه طويلا ثم أنصرف إلينا فقال سألت ربي ثلاثا فأعطاني اثنتين ومنعني واحدة سألت ربي أن لا يهلك أمتي بالسنة فأعطانيها وسألته أن لايهلك أمتي بالغرق فأعطانيها وسألته أن لا يجعل بأسهم بينهم فرد علي
