‘Do not desire to meet the enemy, ask Allah for protection’

Is there a narration wherein Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said, “Do not desire to meet the enemy but ask Allah for protection?”

Answer

Imam Bukhari and Imam Muslim (rahimahumallah) have recorded this narration on the authority of Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (radiyallahu ‘anhu).

(Sahih Bukhari, Hadith: 3026 and Sahih Muslim, Hadith: 1742)

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
