حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، (٣) عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّهُ أَمَرَ رَجُلًا إِذَا أَخَذَ مَضْجَعَهُ قَالَ: اللهُمَّ إِنَّكَ خَلَقْتَ نَفْسِي، وَأَنْتَ تَوَفَّاهَا، لَكَ مَمَاتُهَا وَمَحْيَاهَا، إِنْ أَحْيَيْتَهَا فَاحْفَظْهَا، وَإِنْ أَمَتَّهَا فَاغْفِرْ لَهَا، اللهُمَّ أَسْأَلُكَ الْعَافِيَةَ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ: سَمِعْتَ هَذَا مِنْ عُمَرَ؟ فَقَالَ: " مِنْ خَيْرٍ (٤) مِنْ عُمَرَ، مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " (٥)، ،

Translation

English translation

Once, Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) instructed a man that when you come to your bed, recite this supplication: O Allah! You created me, You alone will cause me to die, my living and dying is also for You. If You grant me life, then protect it, and if You cause me to die, then forgive me. O Allah, I ask You for well-being. That person asked, "Did you hear this from Umar (may Allah be pleased with him)?" He replied, "From the One who was even better than Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), that is, from the Prophet (ﷺ)."
