5071. It was narrated from ‘Abdullāh that the Prophet ﷺ used to say, when evening came: “Amsainā wa amsal-mulkulillāhi wal-ḥamdulillāh. Lā ilāha illallāhu waḥdahu lā sharīka lah (We have reached the evening and the dominion belongs to Allāh and all praise be to Allāh, there is none worthy of worship but Allāh alone with no partner or associate).” In the Ḥadīth of Jarīr it adds: “Zubaid (one of the narrators) used to say: ‘Ibrāhīm bin Suwaid used to say: “Lā ilāha illallāhu waḥdahu lā sharīka lahu, laḥul-mulku wa laḥul-ḥamdu wa huwa ‘alā kulli shaī’in qadīr. Rabbi as’aluka khaira mā fī ḥādhīhil-lailati wa khaira mā ba’dahā, wa a’ūdhu bika min sharri mā fī ḥādhīhil-lailati wa sharri mā ba’dahā. Rabbi a’ūdhu bika minal-kasali wa min suw’il-kibri aw al-kufr. Rabbi a’ūdhu bika min ‘adhābin fīn-nārī wa ‘adhābin fīl-qabr (There is none worthy of worship but Allāh alone with no partner or associate; His is the dominion, to Him is praise and He has power over all things. O Lord, I ask You for the good of this night and what comes after it, and I seek refuge with You from the evil of this night and what comes after it. O Lord, I seek refuge with You from laziness and the ills of arrogance or Kufr. O Lord, I seek refuge with You from a punishment in Hell or punishment in the grave)." When morning came he would say likewise: "Asbahnā wa aṣbahal-mulkulillāhi... (We have reached the morning and dominion belongs to Allāh...)" (Sahih)
