Sunan Ibn Majah 3847 (Book 34, Hadith 21) #33201
Seeking Refuge in Prayer

SUMMARY: The Prophet (SAWS) was teaching a man about the importance of asking Allah for Paradise and seeking refuge from Hell during prayer.

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that : the Messenger of Allah (SAWS) said to a man: "What do you say during your prayer?" He said: "I recite the Tashah-hud then I ask for Allah for Paradise and see refuge with Him from Hell, but by Allah I do not understand your whispering or the whispering of Mu'adh". He said: "It is concerning them (Paradise and Hell) that we are whispering".
حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ مُوسَى الْقَطَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ لِرَجُلٍ ‏"‏ مَا تَقُولُ فِي الصَّلاَةِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَتَشَهَّدُ ثُمَّ أَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ الْجَنَّةَ وَأَعُوذُ بِهِ مِنَ النَّارِ أَمَا وَاللَّهِ مَا أُحْسِنُ دَنْدَنَتَكَ وَلاَ دَنْدَنَةَ مُعَاذٍ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ حَوْلَهُمَا نُدَنْدِنُ
