Hadith 1483
Musnad Abu Ishaq Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas
It was narrated that Ziyad bin Mikhraq said: I heard Abu ‘Abayah narrate from a freed slave of Sa‘d that Sa"d heard a son of his making du’a and saying
O Allah, I ask You for Paradise and its delights and brocade... and I seek refuge in You from the Fire and its chains and fetters. He said: You have asked Allah for a great deal of good and you have sought refuge with Allah from a great deal of evil. But I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say:"There will be people who will overstep the mark in du"a".“ And he recited this verse: "Call on your Lord with humility and in private: for Allah loves not those who trespass beyond bounds" [al-A"raf 7:55]. It is sufficient to say: O Allah, I ask You for Paradise and the words and deeds that will bring me close to it, and I seek refuge in You from the Fire and the words and deeds that will bring me close to it.
