Riyad as-Salihin: Book 16, Hadith 24

Abul-Fadl Al-`Abbas bin `Abdul-Muttalib (ra) reported: I asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) to teach me a supplication. He (ﷺ) said, “Beg Allah for safety (from all evils in this world and in the Hereafter).” I waited for some days and then I went to him again and asked him: “O Messenger of Allah Teach me to supplicate something from Allah.” He said to me, “O Al-`Abbas, the uncle of Messenger of Allah! Beseech Allah to give you safety (Al-`afiyah ) in this life and in the Hereafter.”.

وعن أبي الفضل العباس بن عبد المطلب رضي الله عنه قال‏:‏ قلت يا رسول الله‏:‏ علمني شيئًا أسأله الله تعالى، قال‏:‏ ‏”‏سلوا الله العافية‏”‏ فمكثت أيامًا، ثم جئت فقلت‏:‏ يا رسول الله‏:‏ علمني شيئًا أسأله الله تعالى، قال لي‏:‏ ‏”‏يا عباس ‏يا عم رسول الله سلوا الله العافية في الدنيا والآخرة‏”‏‏.‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه الترمذي وقال‏:‏ حديث حسن صحيح‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏
