Sahih Muslim 402c
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنٌ الْجُعْفِيُّ، عَنْ زَائِدَةَ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ مِثْلَ حَدِيثِهِمَا وَذَكَرَ فِي الْحَدِيثِ ‏ ‏ ‏.‏
"‏ ثُمَّ لْيَتَخَيَّرْ بَعْدُ مِنَ الْمَسْأَلَةِ مَا شَاءَ أَوْ مَا أَحَبَّ ‏"
This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Mansur with the same chain of transmitters and he made a mention of this:

" Then he may choose any supplication which pleases him or which he likes."
