3878. It was narrated that 'Ubâdah bin As-Sâmît said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Whoever wakes up in the morning and says upon waking: Lâ ilâha illallâh wahdahu lâ sharika lahu, lahu-mulku wa lahu-hamdu, wa Hurwa 'ala kulli shay'in Qadir; Subhân-Allâh wal-hamdu lillâhi, wa lâ ilâha illallâhu, wa Allâhu Akbar, wa lâ hawla wa lâ quwwata illa billâhil-'Aliyil-'Azim (None has the right to be worshiped but Allâh alone, with no partner or associate. His is the dominion and
all praise is to Him, and He is Able to do all things. Glory is to Allāh, praise is to Allāh, none has the right to be worshiped but Allāh, Allāh is the Most Great, and there is no power and no strength except with Allāh, the Most High, the Most Supreme), then he supplicates: Rabbighfirlī (O Lord, forgive me), he will be forgiven.” (Sahih)
Walid said: “Or he said: then if he supplicated, it will be answered for him then if he stood up and performed ablution and then performed prayer, his prayer would be accepted.”

Commentary
a. Allāh loves the one who invokes Allāh when he awakes at night. As this is the time of negligence, and invoking Allāh during such time shows the deep love for Allāh.
b. For the acceptance of a supplication, one should make ablution, lie on his right side and recite the prophetic supplications before going to bed. Whenever he awakes at night, he should supplicate after reciting the above prophetic narration and should perform the prayer.
