explained to us: „I supplicated my Lord in intercession for my nation
and He granted me one third of them, thereupon I fell prostrate
before my Lord, thanking Him. Then I raised my head and
supplicated my Lord for my nation, and He granted me another third
of them, whereupon I fell prostrate before my Lord, thanking Him.
Again I raised my head and supplicated my Lord for my nation and
He granted me the last third of them, upon which I fell prostrate
before my Lord.‟"
Abu Daud with a chain up to Sa'ad the son of Abi Wakkas who related that the
Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.

of them, whereupon I fell prostrate before my Lord, thanking Him.
Again I raised my head and supplicated my Lord for my nation and
He granted me the last third of them, upon which I fell prostrate
before my Lord.‟"
