3394. Al-Barā' bin 'Āzib narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said to him: "Should I not teach you some words to say when you go to your bed, so if you die, you will die upon the Fiṭrah, and if you reach the morning, you will reach it in good? You say: 'O Allāh, verily, I submit myself to You, and I turn my face to You, and I entrust my affair to You, hoping in You and fearing You. And I lay myself down depending upon You, there is no refuge [nor escape] from You except to You. I believe in Your Book which You have revealed, and in Your Prophet whom You have sent (Allāhumma Innī Aslamtu Nafsi Ilaika Wa Wajjahtu Wajhi Ilaika, Wa Fawwaḍtu Amrī Ilaika, Raghbatan Wa Rahbatan Ilaika Wa Alja'atu Zahri Ilaika, Lā Malja' [Wa Lā Manjā] Minka Illā Ilaik. Āmantu Bikitābikal-ladhī Anzalta Wa Binabīyykal-ladhī Arsalt).'" Al-Bara' said: "So I said: 'And in Your Messenger whom You have sent.'" He said: "So he ﷺ struck his hand upon my chest, then said: "And in Your Prophet whom You have sent. (Wa Binabīyykal-ladhī Arsalt).'" (Ṣaḥīḥ) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Ḥadīth is Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ Gharīb, and there are narrations on this topic from Rāfi' bin Khadīj, and it has been reported through more than one route from Al-Barā'. Maṣṣur bin Al-Mu'tamir narrated it from Sa'd bin 'Ubaidah, from Al-Barā' from the Prophet ﷺ, and it is similar except that he said: "When you go to your bed and you have Wuḍū'."
