Explanation

Translated from Ustadz Firanda Andirja's Indonesian commentary (Bekal Islam). Quoted verses, hadith and duas keep their Arabic; where the commentary gave its own Indonesian rendering of them, that rendering is not translated and is marked [translation not shown].

This dhikr teaches us to rely on Allah in facing our daily activities. A Muslim's aim in the life of this world is to do righteous deeds, and he cannot do righteous deeds well unless he also seeks provision to sustain his own life and his family's. So he should ask Allah for guidance, that he be made at ease in doing righteous deeds and in obtaining halal provision. But before all of that, he first asks Allah for beneficial knowledge, because it is through beneficial knowledge that he can distinguish which deeds are righteous and which are bad, and which provision is halal and which is haram.

REFERENCE

Quoted as the source gives it, in Indonesian.

(6) HR Ibnu As-Sunni di ‘Amal al-yaum wa al-lailah no 54, dari Ummu Salamah dan dihasankan oleh pentahqiq kitab ‘Amal al-yaum wa al-lailah yaitu dengan lafal : كَانَ إِذَا أَصْبَحَ قَالَ: «اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ عِلْمًا نَافِعًا، وَرِزْقًا طَيِّبًا، وَعَمَلًا مُتَقَبَّلًا» Nabi kalau di pagi hari beliau berkata : Allahumma inni asaluka ‘ilman naafi’an… Lafal ini umum menunjukan bolehnya dzikir ini dibaca kapan saja yang penting di pagi hari. Namun telah datang riwayat dari Ummu Salamah yang menunjukan bahwa dzikir ini dibaca setelah shalat subuh. Lafalnya sebagai berikut : كَانَ يَقُولُ إِذَا صَلَّى الصُّبْحَ حِينَ يُسَلِّمُ Nabi mengucapkannya setelah shalat subuh yaitu setelah salam (HR Ahmad no 26602 dan Ibnu Majah No 925, pada sanadnya ada perawi yang mubham yaitu maula Ummu Salamah, namun hadits ini banyak jalannya sehingga dihasankan oleh oleh Ibnu Hajar dalam Nataaijul Afkaar fi Takhriij Ahaadiits Al-Adzkaar 2/312 dan dishahihkan oleh Al-Albani)
