Zujajat al-Masabih 2842Volume 2

English

Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) never failed to say these words every evening and morning: "O Allah, I ask You for well-being in this world and the Hereafter. O Allah, I ask You for pardon and well-being in my religion, my worldly affairs, my family and my wealth. O Allah, conceal my faults and calm my fears. O Allah, protect me from before me and behind me, from my right and my left, and from above me, and I seek refuge in Your greatness from being swallowed up by the earth."

Note 1

And when he woke up

(1) The statement: "And when he woke up" etc. One should wake up remembering Allah and resolving to be pious, avoiding what Allah has forbidden, and intending not to wrong any of Allah's servants. As mentioned in Al-Ghara'ib. This is stated in Al-'Alamgiriyyah.
