Sunan Ibn MajahHadith Number 1244
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ لَمَّا رَفَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ رَأْسَهُ مِنْ صَلاَةِ الصُّبْحِ قَالَ " اللَّهُمَّ أَنْجِ الْوَلِيدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ، وَسَلَمَةَ بْنَ هِشَامٍ، وَعَيَّاشَ بْنَ أَبِي رَبِيعَةَ، وَالْمُسْتَضْعَفِينَ بِمَكَّةَ. اللَّهُمَّ اشْدُدْ وَطْأَتَكَ عَلَى مُضَرَ، وَاجْعَلْهَا عَلَيْهِمْ سِنِينَ كَسِنِي يُوسُفَ " .
Abu Hurairah Narrated from:
When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) raised his head from Ruku’ in the Subh prayer, he said: ‘O Allah, save Al-Walid bin Walid, Salamah bin Hisham and ‘Ayyash bin Abu Rabi’ah, and the oppressed in Makkah. O Allah, tighten Your grip on Mudar, and send them years of famine like the famine of Yusuf.”

Summary of Sunan Ibn Majah Hadith 1244
This Hadith gives the wording of a supplication said after rising from Ruku’ in the Subh prayer. Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) asked Allah to save Al-Walid bin Walid, Salamah bin Hisham, Ayyash bin Abu Rabi’ah, and the oppressed in Makkah. He also asked Allah to tighten His grip on Mudar and send them years like the famine of Yusuf. The core topic is prayer dua in Subh and concern for oppressed believers. The report is specific: it names people, mentions the oppressed in Makkah, and places the supplication after raising the head from Ruku’. This keeps the lesson close to the narrated wording.
What we learn from this hadith
- The Prophet’s supplication included named people and the oppressed in Makkah.
- The dua was said after rising from Ruku’ in the Subh prayer.
- The Hadith shows that prayer can include heartfelt supplication for people in hardship.
