Summary

The fatwa states that no hadith text from the Prophet SAW was found containing this exact wording. However, supplication allows flexibility, so one may pray with wording the Prophet SAW did not teach as long as the meaning is good and does not contradict the religion. The prayer matches in meaning a hadith narrated by Ibn Hibban, which he graded authentic, asking for a good outcome in all affairs and protection from disgrace in this world and punishment in the hereafter.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.

Akan tetapi, di dalam doa terdapat keluasan dan boleh berdoa dengan apa jua meskipun lafaznya tidak di ajar oleh Nabi SAW selagimana makna doa tersebut adalah baik dan tidak bercanggah dengan agama.
