Hadith text: Do not supplicate against yourselves, do not supplicate…

عن جابر بن عبد الله رضي الله عنهما مرفوعاً: «لا تدعوا على أنفسكم؛ ولا تدعوا على أولادكم، ولا تدعوا على أموالكم، لا توافقوا من الله ساعة يُسأل فيها عطاءٌ فيستجيب لكم».

Explanation of the hadith: Do not supplicate against yourselves, do not supplicate…

In this Hadīth, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) warns of supplicating against one’s children and property, because supplication is a serious matter, and Allah may answer it if it is made in an hour when all prayers are answered. Hence, it would actually harm the person who made the supplication and his children and property.
