Allah's Apostle said, "For every prophet there is one (special invocation (that will not be rejected) with which he appeals (to Allah), and I want to keep such an invocation for interceding for my followers in the Hereafter."
317o:
Narrated Anas:
that the Prophet said, "For every prophet there is an invocation that surely will be responded by Allah," (or said), "For every prophet there was an invocation with which he appealed to Allah, and his invocation was accepted (in his lifetime), but I kept my (this special) invocation to intercede for my followers on the Day of Resurrection."
JazaakiAllah khayr for posting these beautiful ahadeeth.
I was reminded of this thread as I was just reading Du'a Weapon of the Believer, and they were mentioned in it.
It says that "it is an indication of the Prophet's mercy and kindness to his ummah, since he will use this du'a for his ummah, when they need it the most.
It should also be remembered that the du'a referred to in the above ahadeeth are special du'as of the prophets, and not every du'a that they make is answered by Allah. The proof for this is found in the hadith in which the Prophet said:
"I asked my Lord for three things. He gave me two of them, and refused one...." (Ahmad, Muslim and others, from Sa'd)
In this hadith, it is shown that not every du'a of a prophet is answered."
