Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do not wish for an encounter with the enemy. Pray to Allah to grant you safety; (but) when you encounter them, show patience."

[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

وعن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه قال: قال رسول الله ﷺ : "لا تتمنوا لقاء العدو، فإذا لقيتموه فاصبروا" ((متفق عليه))
