Hadith # 1421
Sa'd bin Abu Waqqas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) used to seek (Allah's) protection after prayers in these words: "Alla-humma inni a'udhu bika minal-jubni wal-bukhl, wa a'udhu bika min an uradda ila ardhalil-'umur, wa a'udhu bika min fitnatid-dunya, wa a'udhu bika min fitnatil-qabr (O Allah, I seek refuge with You from cowardice, miserliness and from being sent back to a feeble age; and, seek refuge with You from the trials of this life and those of the grave)."
[Al-Bukhari]
Commentary
Some religious scholars are of the opinion that it is better to observe reciting this Du'a after concluding prayers, and that it is better to combine both. Some scholars say that the Prophet (PBUH) used to recite this Du'a just before Taslim, while he used to recite the Du'a mentioned earlier after Taslim.
