[1811] 200 - (770) Abû Salamah bin 'Abdur-Rahmân bin 'Awf said: "I asked 'Aishah, the Mother of the Believers, how the Prophet of Allâh ﷺ used to start his prayer when he got up at night. She said: 'When he got up to pray at night, he would start his prayer with the words: Allâhuma rabba jabrâ'ila wa mîkâ'ila wa isrâfila fâṭiras-samâwâti wal-arḍ, 'âlimal-ghaibi wash-shahâdah, anta tahkumu bain 'ibâdika fîmâ kânû fîhi yakhtalifûn, ihdinî limâkhtulifa fîhi minal-haqqi bi-idhnikā innaka tahdî man tashâ'u ila sirâṭin mustaqîm. (O Allâh, Lord of Jibrâ'îl, Mîkâ'îl and Isrâfil, Originator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the seen, You judge between Your slaves concerning that wherein they differ. Guide me concerning that wherein they differ of the truth by Your leave, for You guide whomsoever You will to a straight path.)'"

200 - (770) حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ، وَعَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ، وَأَبُو مَعْنٍ الرَّقَاشِيُّ، قَالُوا: حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا عِكْرِمَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ أُمَّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، بِأَيِّ شَيْءٍ كَانَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَفْتَتِحُ صَلَاتَهُ إِذَا قَامَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ؟ قَالَتْ: كَانَ إِذَا قَامَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ افْتَتَحَ صَلَاتَهُ: «اللهُمَّ رَبَّ جَبْرَائِيلَ، وَمِيكَائِيلَ، وَإِسْرَافِيلَ، فَاطِرَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ، عَالِمَ الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ، أَنْتَ تَحْكُمُ بَيْنَ عِبَادِكَ فِيمَا كَانُوا فِيهِ يَخْتَلِفُونَ، اهْدِنِي لِمَا اخْتُلِفَ فِيهِ مِنَ الْحَقِّ بِإِذْنِكَ، إِنَّكَ تَهْدِي مَنْ تَشَاءُ إِلَى صِرَاطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ»
