اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَهُمْ فِي مِكْيَالِهِمْ، وَبَارِكْ لَهُمْ فِي صَاعِهِمْ، وَبَارِكْ لَهُمْ فِي مُدِّهِمْ، وَبَارِكْ لَهُمْ فِي ثَمَرِهِمْ

Allahumma barik lahum fi mickyalihim, wa barik lahum fi sa'ihim, wa barik lahum fi muddihim, wa barik lahum fi thamarim.

It was narrated from Anas that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "O Allah, bless their measures, bless their saa' (a dry measure), bless their mudd (a dry measure), and bless their fruits." Then a man from among the people said: "And Al-Madinah, O Allah!" (The narrator said:) I think he said: "And bless their saa', and bless their mudd, and bless their measures."
