حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، وَابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَاءَ بْنَ عَازِبٍ يَقُولُ: أَوْصَى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلًا إِذَا أَخَذَ مَضْجَعَهُ أَنْ يَقُولَ: " اللهُمَّ أَسْلَمْتُ نَفْسِي إِلَيْكَ، وَوَجَّهْتُ، ، وَجْهِي إِلَيْكَ، وَفَوَّضْتُ أَمْرِي إِلَيْكَ، وَأَلْجَأْتُ ظَهْرِي إِلَيْكَ، رَغْبَةً وَرَهْبَةً إِلَيْكَ، لَا مَلْجَأَ وَلَا مَنْجَا مِنْكَ إِلَّا إِلَيْكَ، آمَنْتُ بِكِتَابِكَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلْتَ، وَبِنَبِيِّكَ (١) الَّذِي أَرْسَلْتَ، فَإِنْ مَاتَ مَاتَ عَلَى الْفِطْرَةِ " (٢)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) instructed an Ansari that when he comes to his bed, he should say: O Allah, I have submitted myself to You, turned my face towards You, entrusted my affairs to You, and relied on You alone for support. My desire is for You, and I fear You. There is no refuge or sanctuary except with You. I have believed in Your Book which You have revealed and in Your Prophet whom You have sent. If the one who says these words dies that night, he will die upon the natural faith. The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain.
