English translation

6313. Narrated Al-Barā' bin 'Āzib that the Prophet ﷺ advised a man saying, "If you intend to lie down (i.e., go to bed), say, 'Allāhumma aslamtu nafsi ilaika, wa faww'dtu amri ilaika, wa wajjahtu wajhi ilaika, walijā'tu zahri ilaika, raghbatan wa rahbatan ilaika. Lā maljā'a wa lā manjā' minka illā ilaika. Āmantu bikitābikal-ladhī anzalta; wa nabiyikal ladhī arsalta.'" And if you should die then (after reciting this before going to bed) you will die on Al-Fitrāh (the religion of Islām)." [See the footnote of Hadīth No. 6311]

6313 - حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَرْعَرَةَ، قَالاَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، سَمِعَ البَرَاءَ بْنَ عَازِبٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَمَرَ رَجُلًا، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا آدَمُ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ الهَمْدَانِيُّ، عَنِ البَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَوْصَى رَجُلًا، فَقَالَ: " إِذَا أَرَدْتَ مَضْجَعَكَ، فَقُلْ: اللَّهُمَّ أَسْلَمْتُ نَفْسِي إِلَيْكَ، وَفَوَّضْتُ أَمْرِي إِلَيْكَ، وَوَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِي إِلَيْكَ، وَأَلْجَأْتُ ظَهْرِي إِلَيْكَ، رَغْبَةً وَرَهْبَةً إِلَيْكَ، لاَ مَلْجَا وَلاَ مَنْجَا مِنْكَ إِلَّا إِلَيْكَ، آمَنْتُ بِكِتَابِكَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلْتَ، وَبِنَبِيِّكَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلْتَ. فَإِنْ مُتَّ مُتَّ عَلَى الفِطْرَةِ "
