6315. Narrated Al-Barā' bin 'Āzib رضي الله عنه: When Allāh's Messenger ﷺ went to bed, he used to sleep on his right side and then say, "Allāhumma aslamtu nafsi ilaika, wa wajjahtu wajhi ilaika, wa fauwaḍtu amrī ilaika, waaljā'tu zahri ilaika, raghbatan wa rahbatan ilaika. Lā maljā'a wa lā manjā' minka illā ilaika. Āmantu bikitābikal-ladhi anzalta wa nabiyikal-ladhi arsalta!"(2) Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "Whoever recites these words (before going to bed) and dies the same night, he will die on Al-Fitrāh [Islāmic religion (as a Muslim)]"

6315 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، حَدَّثَنَا العَلاَءُ بْنُ المُسَيِّبِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنِ البَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ، قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا أَوَى إِلَى فِرَاشِهِ نَامَ عَلَى شِقِّهِ الأَيْمَنِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «اللَّهُمَّ أَسْلَمْتُ نَفْسِي إِلَيْكَ، وَوَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِي إِلَيْكَ، وَفَوَّضْتُ أَمْرِي إِلَيْكَ، وَأَلْجَأْتُ ظَهْرِي إِلَيْكَ، رَغْبَةً وَرَهْبَةً إِلَيْكَ، لاَ مَلْجَأَ وَلاَ مَنْجَا مِنْكَ إِلَّا إِلَيْكَ، آمَنْتُ بِكِتَابِكَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلْتَ، وَبِنَبِيِّكَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلْتَ» وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ قَالَهُنَّ ثُمَّ مَاتَ تَحْتَ لَيْلَتِهِ مَاتَ عَلَى الفِطْرَةِ» {اسْتَرْهَبُوهُمْ} [الأعراف: 116]: مِنَ الرَّهْبَةِ. {مَلَكُوتٌ} [الأنعام: 75]: مُلْكٌ، مَثَلُ: رَهَبُوتٌ خَيْرٌ مِنْ رَحَمُوتٍ، تَقُولُ: تَرْهَبُ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَنْ تَرْحَمَ
