[6882] 56 - (2710) Al-Barâ' bin 'Azîb narrated that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "When you go to bed, perform Wudû' as for prayer, then lie down on your right side, then say: 'Allâhumma, aslamtu wajhi ilaika, wa fawwaḍtu amrî ilaika, wa alja'tu zahri ilaika, raghbatan wa rahbatan ilaika, lâ malja' wa lâ manjâ minka illâ ilaika, âmantu bikitâbikalladhî anzalta wa binabiyykalladhî arsalt (O Allâh, I have turned my face towards You and entrusted my affairs to You and relied completely upon You, out of hope and fear of You. There is no refuge or safe haven from You except with You. I believe in Your Book which You have revealed, and in Your Prophet whom You have sent).' Make these your last words. Then if you die that night, you will have died in a state of Fitrah." He said: "I repeated them in order to memorize them, and I said: 'I believe in Your Messenger whom You have sent,' and he said: 'Say: "I believe in Your Prophet whom You have sent."'

56 - (2710) حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَإِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ - وَاللَّفْظُ لِعُثْمَانَ، قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ: أَخْبَرَنَا، وقَالَ عُثْمَانُ: حَدَّثَنَا - جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ، حَدَّثَنِي الْبَرَاءُ بْنُ عَازِبٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: " إِذَا أَخَذْتَ مَضْجَعَكَ، فَتَوَضَّأْ وُضُوءَكَ لِلصَّلَاةِ، ثُمَّ اضْطَجِعْ عَلَى شِقِّكَ الْأَيْمَنِ، ثُمَّ قُلْ: اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْلَمْتُ وَجْهِي إِلَيْكَ، وَفَوَّضْتُ أَمْرِي إِلَيْكَ، وَأَلْجَأْتُ ظَهْرِي إِلَيْكَ رَغْبَةً وَرَهْبَةً إِلَيْكَ، لَا مَلْجَأَ وَلَا مَنْجَا مِنْكَ إِلَّا إِلَيْكَ، آمَنْتُ بِكِتَابِكَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلْتَ، وَبِنَبِيِّكَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلْتَ، وَاجْعَلْهُنَّ مِنْ آخِرِ كَلَامِكَ، فَإِنْ مُتَّ مِنْ لَيْلَتِكَ، مُتَّ وَأَنْتَ عَلَى الْفِطْرَةِ قَالَ: فَرَدَّدْتُهُنَّ لِأَسْتَذْكِرَهُنَّ فَقُلْتُ: آمَنْتُ بِرَسُولِكَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلْتَ، قَالَ: " قُلْ: آمَنْتُ بِنَبِيِّكَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلْتَ "
