Chapters on Supplication

Abu Hurairah narrated that:
The Prophet said: "There is nothing more honorable with Allah [Most High] than supplication."

Anas bin Malik narrated that :
the Prophet said: "The supplication is the essence of worship."

An-Nu`man bin Bashir narrated that:
The Prophet said: "The supplication, is worship." Then he recited: And Your Lord said: "Call upon me, I will respond to you. Verily, those who scorn My worship, they will surely enter Hell humiliated."

Abu Hurairah (ra) narrated that :
the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Indeed, he who does not ask Allah, he gets angry with him."

Abu Musa Al-Ash`ari (ra) said:
"We were with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) on a military expedition. When we returned, we overlooked Al-Madinah, and the people were pronouncing the Takbīr, and they raised their voices with it. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'Verily, your Lord is not deaf nor absent, He is between you and between the heads of your mounts.' Then he said: 'O `Abdullah bin Qais, should I not inform you of a treasure from the treasures of Paradise: Lā ḥawla wa lā quwwata illā billāh (There is no might or power except by Allah).'"

`Abdullah bin Busr (ra) narrated that:
A man said: "O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), indeed, the legislated acts of Islam have become too much for me, so inform me of a thing that I should stick to." He (ﷺ) said: "Let not your tongue cease to be moist with the remembrance of Allah."

Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri narrated that:
The Messenger of Allah was asked: "Which of the worshippers is superior in rank with Allah on the Day of Judgment?" He said: "Those men who remember Allah much [and women]." He said: "I said: 'O Messenger of Allah! What about the fighter in the cause of Allah?' He said: 'If he were to strike with his sword among the disbelievers and the idolater, until it breaks, and he (or it) is dyed with blood, those who remember Allah much would still be superior in rank."

Abu Ad-Darda [may Allah be pleased with him] narrated that :
the Prophet said: "Should I not inform you of the best of your deed, and the purest of them with your Master, and the highest of them in your ranks, and what is better for you than spending gold and silver, and better for you than meeting your enemy and striking their necks, and they strike your necks?" They said: "Of course." He said, "The remembrance of Allah [Most High]." [Then] Mu'adh bin Jabal [may Allah be pleased with him] said: "There is nothing that brings more salvation from the punishment of Allah than the remembrance of Allah."

Al-Agharr Abu Muslim narrated that:
He bears witness, from Abu Hurairah and Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri, that they bear witness, from the Messenger of Allah, that he said: "There is no group that remembers Allah, except that the angels encompass them, mercy covers them, and tranquility descends upon them: and Allah remembers (mentions) them before those who are with Him."

Abu Sa'eed Al Khudri narrated the:
Mu'awiyah came out to the Masjid and said: "What has caused you to gather for this sitting." They said: "We gathered so that we may remember Allah." He said, "By Allah, nothing caused you to gather for this sitting except for that?" They said, "By Allah, nothing caused us to gather for this sitting except for that." He said: "Indeed, I did not ask you out of suspicion, and there was no one in the position I was from the Messenger of Allah who narrates less Ahadith from him than me. Indeed the Messenger of Allah came out upon a circle of his Companions and said: 'what has caused you to gather for this sitting?' They said: 'We have gathered for this sitting to remember Allah, and praise Him for His having guided us to Islam, and having bestowed blessings upon us.' So he said: 'By Allah, nothing caused you to gather for this sitting except for that?' He said: 'Indeed, I did not ask you out of suspicion, verily Jibra'il came to me and informed me that Allah boasts of you to the angels.'"

Abu Hurairah [may Allah be pleased with him] narrated that :
the Prophet said: "No group gather in a sitting in which they do not remember Allah, nor sent Salat upon their Prophet, except it will be a source of remorse for them. If He wills, He will punish them, and if He wills, He will forgive them."

Jabir narrated that :
the Messenger of Allah said: "There is none who utters a supplication, except that Allah gives him what he asked, or prevents evil from him that is equal to it – as long as he does not supplicate for something evil, or the cutting of ties of the womb."

Abu Hurairah [may Allah be pleased with him] narrated that:
The Messenger of Allah said: "Whoever wishes that Allah would respond to him during hardship and grief, then let him supplicate plentifully when at ease."

Jabir bin `Abdullah (ra) narrated that :
the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "The best remembrance is: 'there is none worthy of worship except Allah (Lā ilāha illallāh)' and the best supplication is: 'All praise is due to Allah (Al-ḥamdulillāh).'"

`A'ishah (ra) narrated that :
the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to remember Allah in all of his affairs.

Ibn `Abbas narrated from Ubayy bin Ka`b that :
whenever the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would mention someone and supplicate for him, he would begin with himself (ﷺ).

Umar bin Al-Khattab [may Allah be pleased with him] narrated:
"Whenever the Messenger of Allah would raise his hands in supplication, he would not lower them until he had wiped his face with them."

Abu Hurairah narrated that :
the Prophet said: "One of you will be responded to, so long as he is not hasty, saying: 'I supplicated, and I was not responded to.'"

Aban bin `Uthman said:
"I heard `Uthman bin `Affan (ra) saying:'The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "There is no worshiper who says, in the morning of every day, and the evening of every night: 'In the Name of Allah, who with His Name, nothing in the earth or the heavens can cause harm, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing (Bismillāh, alladhi lā yaḍurru ma`a ismihi shai'un fil-arḍi wa lā fis-samā', wa huwas-Samī`ul `Alīm)' – three times, (except that) nothing shall harm him." And Aban had been stricken with a type of semi-paralysis, so a man began to look at him, so Aban said to him, "What are you looking at? Indeed the Hadith is as I reported it to you, but I did not say it one day, so Allah brought about His decree upon me."

Thawban (ra) said:
"The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'Whoever says when he reaches the evening: "I am pleased with Allah as (my) Lord, with Islam as (my) religion, and with Muhammad (ﷺ) as (my) Prophet (Raḍītu billāhi rabban wabil-Islāmi dīnan wa bi-Muḥammadin nabiyyan) it is a duty upon Allah to please him.'" (Hasan Gharib)

`Abdullah said:
"When he reached the evening, the Prophet (ﷺ) used to say, 'We have reached the evening, and the Dominion has reached the evening, while belonging to Allah. And all praise belongs to Allah. None has the right to be worshiped but Allah, alone, without partner. (Amsaina wa amsal-mulku lillāh, wal-ḥamdullilāh, wa lā ilāha illallāh, waḥdahu lā sharīka lahu)' – I think he said [in it]: - 'To Him belongs the Dominion, and to Him is the praise, and He is capable of all things. I ask You for the good that is in this night, and the good of what is after it, and I seek refuge in You from the evil of this night, and the evil of what is after it, and I seek refuge in You from laziness and helpless old age. And I seek refuge in You from the punishment of the Fire and the punishment of the grave (Lahul-mulku wa lahul-ḥamdu, wa huwa `alā kulli shai'in qadīr. Asa'luka khaira mā fī hādhihil-lailah, wa khaira mā ba`dahā, wa a`ūdhu bika min sharri hādhihil-lailati wa sharri mā ba`dahā, wa a`ūdhu bika minal-kasali wa sū'il-kibar, wa a`ūdhu bika min `adhābin-nāri wa `adhābil-qabr).' And when he reached the morning, he (ﷺ) used to say, 'We have reached the morning, and the Dominion has reached the morning, while belonging to Allah. And all praise belongs to Allah (Aṣbaḥnā wa aṣbaḥal-mulku lillāh, wal-ḥamdulillāh).'"

Abu Hurairah (ra) said:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to teach his Companions, saying: "When one of you reached the morning, then let him say: 'O Allah, by You we enter the morning, and by You we enter the evening, and be You we live, and by You we died, and to You is the Return (Allāhumma bika aṣbaḥnā wa bika amsainā wa bika naḥyā wa bika namūtu wa ilaikal-maṣīr). And when he reaches the evening let him say: 'O Allah, by You we enter the evening, and by You we enter the morning, and by You we live, and by You we die, and to You is the Resurrection (Allāhumma bika amsainā wa bika aṣbaḥnā wa bika naḥyā wa bika namūtu wa ilaikan-nushūr).'"

Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, said:
"Abu Bakr said: 'O Messenger of Allah, command me with something that I may say when I reach morning and evening.' He said: 'Say: "O Allah Knower of the Unseen and the Seen, Originator of the heavens and the earth, Lord of everything and its Possessor, I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except You, I seek refuge from You from the evil of my soul and from the evil of Shaitan and his Shirk (Allāhumma `ālimal-ghaibi wash-shahādati fāṭiras-samāwāti wal-arḍ, rabba kulli shai'in wa malīkahu, ash-hadu an lā ilāha illā anta, a`ūdhu bika min sharri nafsī wa min sharrish-shaiṭāni washirkihi).'" He said: 'Say it when you reach morning, and evening, and when you go to bed.'"

Shaddad bin Aws narrated that:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said to him: "Should I not direct you to the chief of supplications for forgiveness? 'O Allah, You are my Lord, there is none worthy of worship except You, You created me and I am Your slave. I am adhering to Your covenant and Your promise as much as I am able to, I seek refuge in You from the evil of what I have done. I admit to You your blessings upon me, and I admit to my sins. So forgive me, for there is none who can forgive sins except You (Allāhumma anta rabbī lā ilāha illā anta, khalaqtanī wa ana `abduka, wa ana `alā `ahdika wa wa`dika ma-staṭa`tu. A`ūdhu bika min sharri ma ṣana`tu, wa abū'u ilayka bini`matika `alayya wa a`tarifu bidhunūbī faghfirlī dhunūbī innahu lā yaghfirudh-dhunūba illā ant).' None of you says it when he reaches the evening, and a decree comes upon him before he reaches morning, except that Paradise becomes obligatory upon him. And none says it when he reaches the morning, and a decree comes upon him before he reaches evening, except that Paradise becomes obligatory for him."

Al-Bara' bin `Azib 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 died, you will die upon the Fitrah, and if you reach the morning, you will reach it in good? You say: 'O Allah, 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 in 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 nafsī ilaika wa wajjahtu wajhī ilaika, wa fawwaḍtu amrī ilaika, raghbatan wa rahbatan ilaika wa alja'tu ẓahrī ilaika, lā malja'a [wa lā manjā] minka illā ilaik. Āmantu bikitābikal-ladhī anzalta wa binabiyyikal-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 binabiyyikal-ladhī arsalt)."

Rafi` bin Khadij narrated that:
The Prophet said: "When one of you lies down on his right side, then says: 'O Allah, I have submitted myself to You, and I have turned my face to You, and I lay myself down relying upon You, and I have entrusted my affair to You, there is no refuge [nor escape] from You except to You. I believe in Your Book and Your Messengers (Allāhumma innī aslamtu nafsī ilaika wa wajjahtu wajhī ilaika, wa alja'tu ẓahrī ilaika, wa fawwaḍtu amrī ilaika, lā malja'a [wa lā manjā] minka illā ilaik, ūminu bikitābika wa birusulika)' – then if he dies that night, he shall enter Paradise."

Anas bin Malik (ra) narrated that :
when he went to his bed, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to say: "All praise is due to Allah, who has fed us and given us to drink, and has sufficed and granted us refuge, and how many are they who have none to suffice them and none to grant them refuge (Al-ḥamdulillāhi alladhi aṭ`amanā wa saqānā wa kafānā wa āwānā, wakam mimman lā kāfiya lahu wa lā mu'wiy)."

Abu Sa`eed (ra) narrated that :
the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Whoever says, when he goes to his bed: 'I seek forgiveness from Allah, [the Magnificent] the One whom there is none worthy of worship except for Him, the Living, the Sustainer, and I repent to Him (Astaghfirullāha [al-`Aẓim] alladhi lā ilāha illā huw, al-Ḥayyul-Qayyūm, wa atūbu ilaihi)' three times, Allah shall forgive him his sins if they were like the foam of the sea, even if they were the number of leaves of the trees, even if they were the number of sand particles of `Alij, even if they were the number of the days of the world."

Hudhaifah bin Al-Yaman (ra) narrated that:
When the Prophet (ﷺ) would sleep, he would put his hand under his head then say: "O Allah, safeguard me from Your Punishment the Day You gather [Your slaves] (Allāhumma qinī `adhābaka yawma tajma`u [`ibādak])" or "you resurrect your slaves (tab`athu `ibādak)."

Al-Bara' bin `Azib (ra) narrated that:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to lay his head upon his right hand when going to sleep, then say: "My Lord, safeguard me from Your punishment the Day You resurrect Your slaves (Rabbi qinī `adhābaka yawma tab`athu `ibādak)."

Abu Hurairah (ra) said:
"The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to order that when one of us went to sleep, he should say: 'O Allah, Lord of the heavens and Lord of the earths, and our Lord, and the Lord of everything, splitter of the seed-grain and date-stone, and Revealer of the Tawrah and the Injil and the Qur'an. I seek refuge in You from the evil of every evil that You are holding by the forelock. You are the First, there is nothing before You, You are the Last, there is nothing after You, and Az-Zahir, there is nothing above you, and Al-Batin, there is nothing below You. Relieve me of my debt, and enrich me from poverty (Allāhumma rabbas-samāwati wa rabbal-arḍīna wa rabbanā, wa rabba kulli shai'in, fāliqal-ḥabbi wan-nawā, wa munzilat-Tawrāti wal-Injīli wal-Qur'ān. A`ūdhu bika sharri kulli dhi sharrin anta ākhidhun bināṣiyatihi, antal-Awwalu falaisa qablaka shai'un, wa antal-Ākhiru falaisa ba`daka shai'un, waẓ-Ẓāhiru falaisa fauqaka shai'un wal-Bātinu falaisa dūnaka shai'un, iqḍi `annid-daina wa aghninī minal-faqr).'"

Abu Hurairah (ra) narrated that :
the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "When one of you leaves his bed then returns to it, then let him brush it off with the edge of his Izar three times, for indeed, he does not know what succeeded him upon it after him. When he lies down, let him say: 'In Your Name, my Lord, I lay my side down, and in Your Name I raise it. And if You take my soul, then have mercy upon it, and if You release it, then protect it with that which You protect Your righteous worshipers (Bismika rabbī waḍa`tu janbī wa bika arfa`uhu, fa'in amsakta nafsī farḥamhā wa in arsaltahā faḥfaẓhā bimā taḥfaẓu bihī `ibādakaṣ-ṣāliḥīn)' And when he awakens, let him say: All praise is due to Allah, Who healed me in my body, and returned to me my soul, and permitted me to remember Him (Al-ḥamdulillāh alladhī `āfānī fī jasadī wa radda `alayya rūḥī wa adhina lī bidhikrih).'"

Aishah narrated that:
Every night, when the Prophet (ﷺ) would go to his bed, he would join his hands, then blow in them, as he recited in them: "Say: He is Allah, the One." And "Say: I seek refuge in the Lord of Al-Falaq" and "Say: I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind." Then he would wipe as much as he was able to of his body with them, beginning with them first of his head and face, and the front of his body. He would do this three times.

Farwah bin Nawfal (ra) narrated that:
He came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: "O Messenger of Allah, teach me something that I may say when I go to my bed." So he said: "Recite: Say: 'O you disbelievers' for verily it is a disavowal of Shirk." Shu`bah said: "Sometimes he would say: 'One time' and sometime he would not say it."(Another chain) from Farwah bin Nawfal, from his father: "That he came to the Prophet (ﷺ)" then he mentioned similar in meaning. And this is more correct.[Abu `Eisa said:] And Zubair reported this hadith from Ishaq, from Farwah bin Nawfal, from his father from the Prophet (ﷺ), with similar wording. This is more appropriate and more correct than the narration of Shu`bah. The companions of Abu Ishaq were confused in the narration of this hadith. This hadith has been reported through routes other than this. `Abdur-Rahman is the brother of Farwah bin Nawfal.

Jabir said:
"The Prophet would not sleep until he reached Tanzil as-Sajdah and Tabarak."

`A'isha (ra) said:
"The Prophet (ﷺ) would not sleep until he recited Az-Zumar and Banu Isra'il." Muhammad bin Ismail informed me: "This Abu Lubabah's (a narrator in the chain) name is Marwan, the freed slave of Abdur-Rahman bin Ziyad. He heard from Aisha, and Hammad bin Zaid heard from him."

Ar-Irbad bin Sariyah (ra) narrated that:
The Prophet (ﷺ) would not sleep until he had recited Al-Musabbihat, and he would say: "In them is an Ayah that is better than a thousand Ayah."

A man from Banu Hanzalah said:
"I accompanied Shaddad bin Aws [may Allah be pleased with him] on a journey, so he said: 'Should I not teach you what the Messenger of Allah used to teach us? That you say: "O Allah, I ask You for steadfastness in the affair and I ask You for determination upon guidance, and I ask You to make me grateful for Your favor, and excellence in worshiping You, and I ask You for a truthful tongue and a sound heart, and I seek refuge in You from the evil of what You know, and I ask You for the good of what You know, and I seek Your forgiveness for that which You know. Verily, You are the Knower of all that is hidden (Allāhumma innī as'alukath-thabāta fil-amri, wa as'aluka `azīmatar-rushdi, wa as'aluka shukra ni`matika, wa ḥusna `ibādatika, wa as'aluka lisānan ṣādiqan wa qalban salīman, wa a`ūdhu bika min sharri mā ta`lamu, wa as'aluka min khairi mā ta`lamu, wa astaghfiruka mimmā ta`lamu innaka anta `allāmul-ghuyūb).'" He said: 'The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "There is no Muslim who lays down to sleep while reciting a Surat from Allah's Book, except that Allah entrusts an angel, so that nothing approaches him to harm him until he awakens, whenever he awakens."

Ali [may Allah be pleased with him] said:
"Fatimah complained to me about her hands blistering from grinding flour. So I said: 'If you were to approach your father and ask him for a servant?' So he (the Prophet) said: 'Should I not direct the two of you, to that which is better for you than a servant? When the two of you lay down to sleep, say thirty-three, thirty-three, thirty-four, of At-Taḥmīd, At-Tasbīḥ, and At-Takbīr."

Ali [may Allah be pleased with him] said:
"Fatimah went to the Prophet complaining of her hands blistering, so he ordered her to say At-Tasbīḥ, At-Takbīr, and At-Taḥmīd."

Abdullah bin `Amr [may Allah be pleased with both of them] said:
"The Messenger of Allah said: 'There are two characteristics over which a Muslim man does not guard, except that he enters Paradise. And indeed, they are easy, and those who act upon them are few: He glorifies Allah at the end of every prayer ten times (saying Subḥān Allāh) and praises Him ten times saying (Al-Ḥamdulillāh) and extols His greatness ten times (saying Allāhu Akbar).'"He said: "And I have seen the Messenger of Allah counting them with his hand. He said: 'So this is one hundred and fifty with the tongue, and one thousand and five hundred on the Scale. When you go to bed, you glorify Him, extol His greatness, and praise Him a hundred times, so this is one hundred with the tongue and one thousand on the Scale. Which of you perform two thousand and five hundred evil deeds in a single day and night?' They said: 'How could we not guard over them?' He said: 'Shaitan comes to one of you when he is in his Salat and says: "Remember such and such, remember such and such" until he turns perhaps he will not do it. And he comes to him and he is lying down and makes him sleepy until he falls asleep.'"

Abdullah bin Amr [may Allah be pleased with him] said:
"I saw the Messenger of Allah counting At-Tasbīḥ."

Ka'b bin Ujrah narrated that:
The Prophet said: "There are Mu'aqqibat, he who says them shall not be miserable. Glorify Allah at the end of every prayer thirty-three times, and praise him thirty-three times, and extol His greatness thirty-four times."

Zaid bin Thabit (ra) said:
"We were ordered to say the Tasbīḥ at the end of every Salat thirty-three times, and to say the Takbīr thirty-four times." He said: "Then a man from the Ansar had a dream in which someone said: 'The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) ordered you to say the Tasbīḥ at the end of every Salat thirty-three times, and to say the Taḥmīd thirty-three times, and to say the Takbīr thirty-four times?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Then make them twenty-five and add the Tahlīl (saying Lā ilāha illallāh) to them.' The next day he went to the Prophet (ﷺ) and informed him, so he said: "Do it."

`Ubadah bin As-Samit, may Allah be pleased with him, narrated that:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever wakes up in the night and says, 'None has the right to be worshiped but Allah, alone, without partner, to Him belongs the Dominion, and to Him is the praise, and He has power over all things. And Glory is to Allah, and all the praise is to Allah, and 'None has the right to be worshiped but Allah, and Allah is the greatest, and there is no might nor power except by Allah (Lā ilāha illallāh, waḥdahu lā sharīka lahu, lahul-mulku wa lahul-ḥamdu, wa huwa `alā kulli shai'in qadīr. Wa subḥān Allah, walḥamdulillāh, wa lā ilāha illallāh, wa Allāhu akbar, wa lā ḥawla wa lā quwwata illā billāh.)' – then he said: 'O my Lord, forgive me (Rabbighfirlī)' – or he said – 'then he supplicates, he shall be responded to. So he makes a firm determination, then performs Wudu', then he performs Salat, his Salat shall be accepted."

Maslamah bin `Amr said:
"`Umair bin Hani used to perform a thousand prostrations every day and recite a hundred thousand Tasbīḥs every day."

Rabi`ah bin Ka`b Al-Aslami said:
"I used to spend the night at the door of the Prophet (ﷺ), so that I may give him his water for Wudu', and I would hear him, for a long period of the night, saying: 'Allah hears the one who praise Him (Sami` Allāhu liman ḥamidah).' And I would hear him, for a long period saying: 'All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the all that exists. (Al-ḥamdulillāhi rabbil-`ālamīn).'"

Hudhaifah bin Al-Yaman [may Allah be pleased with him] narrated that when the Prophet (ﷺ) wanted to sleep, he would say:
"O Allah, in Your Name I die and I live (Allāhumma bismika amūtu wa aḥyā)." And when he would wake, he would say: "Allah praise is due to Allah who revived my soul after causing its death and to Him is the resurrection (Al-ḥamdulillāh, alladhī aḥyā nafsī ba`da mā amātahā wa ilaihin-nushūr)."

`Abdullah bin `Abbas [may Allah be pleased with them] narrated, :
that when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would stand for prayer during the middle of the night, he would say: "O Allah, to You is the Praise, You are the Light of the heavens and the earth, and to You is the Praise, You are the Sustainer of the heavens and the earth, and to You is the praise, You are the Lord of the heavens and the earth, and those in them, You are the truth, and Your Promise is the truth, and Your meeting is true, and Paradise is true, and the Fire is true, and the Hour is true, O Allah, to You have I submitted, and in You have I believed , and in You have I relied, and to You have I turned, and by You have I argued, and to You have I referred for judgment. So forgive me what I have done before and after, and that which I have hidden and that which I have done openly. You are my Deity, no has the right to be worshiped but You (Allāhumma lakal-ḥamd, anta nūrus-samāwāti wal-arḍ, wa lakal-ḥamd, anta qayyāmus-samāwāti wal-arḍ, wa lakal-ḥamd, anta rabbus-samāwāti wal-arḍ, wa man fīhinn, antal-ḥaqq, wa wa`dukal-ḥaqq, wa liqā'uka ḥaqq, wal-jannatu ḥaqq, wan-nāru ḥaqq, was-sā`atu ḥaqq. Allāhumma laka aslamtu, wa bika āmantu, wa `alaika tawakkaltu, wa ilaika anabtu, wa bika khāṣamtu, wa ilaika ḥākamtu, faghfirlī mā qaddamtu wa mā akhartu, wa mā asrartu wa mā a`lant. Anta ilāhī lā ilāha illā ant)."

Ibn Abbas said:
"One night, when he (ﷺ) exited his Salat, I heard the Messenger of Allah saying: 'O Allah, I ask You of Your mercy, that You guide by it my heart, and gather by it my affair, and bring together that which has been scattered of my affairs, and correct with it that which is hidden from me, and raise by it that which is apparent from me, and purify by it my actions, and inspire me by it with that which contains my guidance, and protect me by it from that which I seek protection, and protect me by it from every evil. O Allah give me faith and certainty after which there is no disbelief, and mercy, by which I may attain the high level of Your generosity in the world and the Hereafter. O Allah, I ask You for success [in that which You grant, and relief] in the Judgment, and the positions of the martyrs, and the provision of the successful, and aid against the enemies. O Allah, I leave to You my need, and my actions are weak, I am in need of Your mercy, so I ask You, O Decider of the affairs, and O Healer of the chests, as You separate me from the punishment of the blazing flame, and from seeking destruction, and from the trial of the graves. O Allah, whatever my opinion has fallen short of, and my intention has not reached it, and my request has not encompassed it, of good that You have promised to anyone from Your creation, or any good You are going to give to any of Your slaves, then indeed, I seek it from You and I ask You for it, by Your mercy, O Lord of the Worlds. O Allah, Possessor of the strong rope, and the guided affair, I ask You for security on the Day of the Threat, and Paradise on the Day of Immortality along with the witnesses, brought-close, who bow and prostrate, who fulfill the covenants, You are Merciful, Loving, and indeed, You do what You wish. O Allah, make us guided guiders and not misguided misguiders, an ally to Your friends, an enemy to Your enemies. We love due to Your love, those who love You, and hate, due to Your enmity those who oppose You. O Allah, this is the supplication (that we are capable of), and it is upon You to respond, and this is the effort (that we are capable of), and upon You is the reliance. O Allah, appoint a light in my heart for me, and a light in my grave, and light in front of me, and light behind me, and light on my right, and light on my left, and light above me, and light below me, and light in my hearing, and light in my vision, and light in my hair, and light in my skin, and light in my flesh, and light in my blood, and light in my bones. O Allah, magnify for me light, and appoint for me a light. Glory is to the One who wears Glory and grants by it.

Abu Salamah said:
"I asked Aishah [may Allah be pleased with her]: 'With what did the Prophet used to open his Salat when he stood up in the night?' She said: 'When he stood up in the night, he would open his Salat by saying: "O Allah, Lord of Jibra'il, Mika'il, and Israfil; Originator of the heavens and the earth, [and] Knower of the hidden and the seen; You judge between Your slaves concerning that which they used to differ, guide me through that which there has been difference concerning the truth, verily, You are upon a straight path (Allāhumma rabba Jibrīla wa Mīkā'ila wa Isrāfīl, fāṭira-samāwāti wal-arḍi [wa] `ālimal-ghaibi wash-shahādati anta taḥkumu baina `ibādika fīmā kānū fīhi yakhtalifūn, ihdini limakhtulifa fīhi minal-ḥaqqi bi'idhnika innaka tahdī man tashā'u ilā ṣirātin mustaqīm)."

Ali bin Abi Talib narrated that whenever the Messenger of Allah would stand for Salat, he would say:
"I have directed my face towards the One who created the Heavens and the earth, as a Hanif, and I am not of the idolaters. Indeed, my Salat, my sacrifice, my living, and my dying is for Allah, the Lord of all that exists, there is no partner for Him, and with this have I been ordered, and I am among the Muslims. O Allah, You are the King, there is none worthy of worship except You. You are My Lord, and I am Your slave, I have wronged myself, and I admit to my sin, so forgive me all my sins, verily, there is none who forgives sins but You. And guide me to the best of the manners, none guides to the best of them except You, and turn the evil of them away from me, [verily,] none can turn the evil of them away from me except You. I have believed in You. Blessed are You and Exalted are You, I seek Your forgiveness and I repent to you (Wajjahtu wajhiya lilladhī faṭaras-samāwāti wal-arḍa ḥanīfan wa mā ana min al-mushrikīn, inna ṣalātī wa nusukī wa maḥyāya wa mamātī lillāhi rabbil-`ālamīn, lā sharīka lahū wa bidhālika umirtu wa ana min al-muslimīn.

And when he would bow in Ruku`, he would say: "O Allah, to You I have bowed, and in You I believe, and to You have I submitted. My hearing, my sight, my brain, my bones and my sinew are humbled to you (Allāhumma laka raka`tu wa bika āmantu wa laka aslamtu. Khasha`a laka sam`ī wa baṣarī wa mukhkhī wa `iẓāmī, wa `aṣabī)" Then when he would raise his head, he would say: "O Allah, our Lord, to You is praise the fill of the Heavens and the earths and the fill of whatever You will of things. (Allāhumma rabbanā lakal-ḥamdu mil'as-samāwāti wal-arḍīna wa mā bainahumā, wa mil'a mā shi'ta min shay'in ba`d)." Then, when he prostrated, he would say: "O Allah, to You have I prostrated, and in You have I believed, and to You have I submitted, my face has prostrated to the One Who created it and fashioned it, and gave it its hearing and its sight. So Blessed is Allah, the Best of creators (Allāhumma laka sajadtu wa bika āmantu wa laka aslamtu, sajada wajhi lilladhī khalaqahū fa ṣuwwarahū wa shaqqa sam`ahū wa baṣarahū fatabārak Allāhu ahsanul-khāliqīn)." Then the last of what he would say between At-Tashah-hud and As-Salam would be: "O Allah, forgive me what I have done before and after, and what I have hidden and what I have done openly, and what You know more of it than I, You are the One who sends forth and the One who delays, there is none worthy of worship except You. (Allāhummaghfirlī mā qaddamtu wa mā akhkhartu wa mā asrartu wa mā a`lantu wa mā anta a`lamu bihī minnī antal-Muqaddimu wa antal-Mu'akhkhiru, lā ilāha illā ant)."

Ali bin Abi Talib narrated that whenever the Messenger of Allah would stand for Salat, he would say:
"I have directed my face towards the One who has created the heavens and the earth, as a Hanif, and I am not of the idolaters. Indeed, my Salat, my sacrifice, my living, my dying, is for Allah, the Lord of all that exists, without partner, and with this have I been ordered and I am of the Muslims. O Allah, You are the King, there is none worthy of worship except You. You are My Lord, and I am Your slave, I have wronged myself and I admit to my sin, so forgive me all my sins, verily, there is none who forgives sins but You, and guide me to the best of manners, none guides to the best of them except You, and turn away from me the evil of them, none can turn away from me the evil of them except You. Here I am in obedience to You, and in aiding Your cause, and the good, all of it is in Your Hands, and the evil is not attributed to You, I am reliant upon You and ever-turning towards You, Blessed are You and Exalted are You. I seek Your forgiveness and I repent to you (Wajjahtu wajhiya lilladhī faṭaras-samāwāti wal-arḍa ḥanīfan wa mā ana min al-mushrikīn, inna ṣalātī wa nusukī wa maḥyāya wa mamātī lillāhi rabbil-`ālamīn, lā sharīka lahū wa bidhālika umirtu wa ana min al-muslimīn.

Labaika wa sa`daika wal-khairu kulluhū fī yadaika, wash-sharru laisa ilaik, tabārakta wa ta`ālaita astaghfiruka wa atūbu ilaik)." And when he would bow in Ruku he would say: "O Allah, to You have I bowed, and in You have I believed, and to You have I submitted. My hearing, my sight, my bones, and my sinew are humbled to you (Allāhumma laka raka`tu wa bika āmantu wa laka aslamtu. Khasha`a laka sam`ī wa baṣarī wa `iẓāmī, wa `aṣabī)." And when he would rise he would say: "O Allah, our Lord, to You is praise filling the heaven and filling the earth, and filling what is between them, and filling whatever You have wished of things afterward (Allāhumma rabbanā lakal-ḥamdu mil'as-samāwāti wa mil'al-arḍ wa mil'a mā bainahumā, wa mil'a mā shi'ta min shay'in ba`d)." Then, when he prostrated, he would say: "O Allah, to You have I prostrated, and in You have I believed, and to You have I submitted (in Islam), my face has prostrated to the One Who created it, and fashioned it, and gave it its hearing and sight, [so] Blessed is Allah, the Best of Creators (Allāhumma laka sajadtu wa bika āmantu wa laka aslamtu, sajada wajhi lilladhī khalaqahū fa ṣuwwarahū wa shaqqa sam`ahū wa baṣarahū fatabārak Allāhu ahsanul-khāliqīn)." Then the last of what he would say between At-Tashahud and At-Taslim was: "O Allah, forgive me what I have done, before and after, and what I have hidden, and what I have done openly, and what I have transgressed the limit in, and what You know about more than me, You are the One Who sends forth and the One Who delays, there is none worthy of worship except You (Allāhummaghfirlī mā qaddamtu wa mā akhkhartu wa mā asrartu wa mā a`lantu wa mā asraftu wa mā anta a`lamu bihī minnī antal-Muqaddimu wa antal-Mu'akhkhiru, lā ilāha illā ant)."

Ali bin Abi Talib narrated that :
when the Messenger of Allah would stand for the obligatory prayer, he would raise his hands to the level of his shoulder, and he would do this [also] when he finished his recitation and intended to bow, and he would do it when he raised his head from Ruku`, and he would not raise his hands in any of his prayers while he was seated. When he would rise from the two prostrations, he would likewise raise his hands, and say the Takbir, and when he opened his Salat after the Takbir, he would say: "I have directed my face towards the One who has created the heavens and the earth, as a Hanif, and I am not of the idolaters. Indeed, my Salat, my sacrifice, my living, my dying, is for Allah, the Lord of all that exists, without partner, and with this have I been ordered and I am of the Muslims. O Allah, You are the King, there is none worthy of worship except You. Glorified are You, You are My Lord, and I am Your slave, I have wronged myself and I admit to my sin, so forgive me all my sins, verily, there is none who forgives sins but You, and guide me to the best of manners, none guides to the best of them except You, and turn away from me the evil of them, none turns away from me the evil of them except You, I am here in Your obedience and aiding Your cause, and I am reliant upon You and ever-turning towards You, [and] there is no refuge from You nor hiding place from You except (going) to You, I seek Your forgiveness, and I repent to you (Wajjahtu wajhiya lilladhī faṭaras-samāwāti wal-arḍa ḥanīfan wa mā ana min al-mushrikīn, inna ṣalātī wa nusukī wa maḥyāya wa mamātī lillāhi rabbil-`ālamīn, lā sharīka lahū wa bidhālika umirtu wa ana min al-muslimīn.

Labaika wa sa`daika, wa ana bika wa ilaika, [wa] lā manjā minka wa lā malja'a illā ilaik, astaghfiruka wa atūbu ilaik)." Then he would recite, then when he would bow, his speech in his Ruku`, would be to say: "O Allah, to You have I bowed, and in You have I believed, and to You have I submitted (in Islam), and You are my Lord. My hearing, my sight, my brain and my bones are humbled to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds all that exists (Allāhumma laka raka`tu wa bika āmantu wa laka aslamtu wa anta rabb ī. Khasha`a sam`ī wa baṣarī wa mukhkhī wa `aẓmī lillāhi, rabbil-`ālamīn)." Then, when he raised his head from Ruku he would say: "Allah hears the one who praises him (Sami`a Allāhu liman ḥamidah)." Then he would follow it with: "O Allah, our Lord, to You is praise filling the heavens and the earth and filling whatever You wish of things afterward (Allāhumma rabbanā wa lakal-ḥamdu mil'as-samāwāti wal-arḍi, wa mil'a mā shi'ta min shay'in ba`d.)." Then, when prostrated he would say in his prostration: "O Allah, to You have I prostrated, and in You have I believed, and to You have I submitted (in Islam), and You are my Lord, my face has prostrated to the One that created it, and granted its hearing and sight, Blessed is Allah, the Best of Creators (Allāhumma laka sajadtu wa bika āmantu wa laka aslamtu wa anta rabbī, sajada wajhi lilladhī khalaqahū wa shaqqa sam`ahū wa baṣarahū, tabārak Allāhu ahsanul-khāliqīn)." When he was finished with his Salat, we would say: "O Allah, forgive me what I have done, before and after, and what I have hidden, and what I have done openly, and You are my Deity, there is none worthy of worship except You (Allāhummaghfirlī mā qaddamtu wa mā akhkhartu wa mā asrartu wa mā a`lantu, wa anta ilāhī lā ilāha illā ant)."

Al-Hasan bin Muhammad bin Ubaidullah bin Abi Yazid said:
"Ibn Juraij said to me: "Ubaidullah bin Abi Yazid informed me that Ibn Abbas said: "A man came to the Prophet and said: 'O Messenger of Allah! I had a dream at night while I was sleeping, in which I was praying behind a tree, when I prostrated, the tree prostrated along with me. Then I heard it saying: "O Allah! Record for me a reward with You for it, remove a sin from me by it, and store it away for me with You for it, and accept it from me as You accepted it from Your worshipper Dawud (Allāhumma uktub lī bihā `indaka ajran, waḍa` `annī bihā wizran, waj`alhā lī `indaka dhukhran, wa taqabbalhā minnī kamā taqabbalta min `abdika Dāwūd)." Al-Hasan said: "Ibn Juraij said to me: 'Your grandfather said to me: "Ibn Abbas said: 'So the Prophet recited (an Ayah of) prostration, then prostrated.'" [He said] "So Ibn Abbas said: 'I listened to him, and he was saying the same as the man informed that the tree had said.'"

Aishah narrated:
"When the Messenger of Allah would prostrate (for recitation of) the Qur'an, he would say: 'I have prostrated my face to the One Who created it, and made its hearing and vision, through His ability and power (Sajada wajhī lilladhī khalaqahū wa shaqqa sam`ahū wa baṣarahū bi ḥawlihī wa quwwatih).'"

Anas bin Malik narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
"Whoever says – that is: when he leaves his house – 'In the Name of Allah, I place my trust in Allah, there is no might or power except by Allah (Bismillāh, tawakkaltu `alallāh, lā ḥawla wa lā quwwata illā billāh)' it will be said to him: 'You have been sufficed and protected,' and Shaitan will become distant from him."

Umm Salamah narrated that :
When the Prophet (ﷺ) would leave his house, he would say: "In the Name of Allah, I place my trust in Allah. O Allah! We seek refuge in You from slipping unintentionally or becoming misguided, or committing oppression or being oppressed, or acting ignorantly or being treated ignorantly (Bismillāh, tawakkaltu `alallāh. Allāhumma, innā na`ūdhu bika min an nazilla aw naḍilla, aw naẓlima aw nuẓlam, aw najhala aw yujhala alainā)."

Salim bin Abdullah bin Umar narrated from his father, from his grandfather, that :
the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever enters the marketplace and says: 'There is none worthy of worship except Allah, Alone, without partner, to Him belongs the dominion, and to Him is all the praise, He gives life and causes death, He is Living and does not die, in His Hand is the good, and He has power over all things, (Lā ilāha illallāh, waḥdahu lā sharīka lahu, lahul-mulku wa lahul-ḥamdu, yuḥyī wa yumītu, wa huwa ḥayyun lā yamūtu, biyadihil-khairu, wa huwa `alā kulli shay'in qadīr)' Allah shall record a million good deeds for him, wipe a million evil deeds away from him, and raise a million ranks for him."

Salim bin Abdullah bin Umar narrates from his father, from his grandfather, that :
the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever states in the marketplace: 'There is none worthy of worship except Allah, Alone, without partner, to Him belongs the dominion, and to Him is all the praise, He gives life and causes death, and He is Living and does not die, in His Hand is the good, and He has power over all things, (Lā ilāha illallāh, waḥdahu lā sharīka lahu, lahul-mulku wa lahul-ḥamdu, yuḥyī wa yumītu, wa huwa ḥayyun lā yamūtu, biyadihil-khairu, wa huwa `alā kulli shay'in qadīr)' Allah shall record a million good deeds for him, wipe a million evil deeds away from him, and build a house in Paradise for him.

Al-Agharr Abu Muslim narrated that he bears witness from Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri and Abu Hurairah, that they bear witness that :
the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Whoever says: 'There is none worthy of worship except Allah, and Allah is the Greatest, (Lā ilāha illallāh, wa Allāhu akbar)' His Lord affirms his statement and says: 'There is none worthy of worship except Me, and I am the Greatest,' and when he say: 'There is none worthy of worship except for Allah, Alone, (Lā ilāha illallāh, waḥdahu)' Allah says: 'There is none worthy of worship except for Me and I am Alone.' And when he say: 'There is none worthy of worship except for Allah, Alone, without partner, (Lā ilāha illallāh, waḥdahu lā sharīka lahu)' Allah says: 'There is none worthy of worship except Me, Alone, I have no partner.' And when he say: 'There is none worthy of worship except for Allah, to Him belongs all that exists, and to Him is the praise, (Lā ilāha illallāh, lahul-mulku wa lahul-ḥamdu)' Allah says: 'There is none worthy of worship except Me, to Me belongs all that exists, and to Me is the praise.' And when he says: 'There is none worthy of worship except Allah, and there is no might or power except by Allah, (Lā ilāha illallāh, wa lā ḥawla wa lā quwwata illā billāh)' Allah says: 'There is none worthy of worship except Me, and there is no might or power except by Me.'" And he used to say: "Whoever says it in his illness, then dies, the Fire shall not consume him."

Umar narrated that:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever sees a person afflicted and say: 'All praise is due to Allah Who saved me from that which He has afflicted you with, and blessed me greatly over many of those whom He has created, (Al-ḥamdulillāhi alladhī `āfānī mimmabtalāka bihī wa faḍḍalanī `alā kathīrin mimman khalaqa tafḍīla)' then he shall be saved from that affliction for as long as he lives."

Abu Hurairah narrated that:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever sees an afflicted person then says: 'All praise is due to Allah who saved me from that which He has afflicted you with, and blessed me greatly over many of those whom He has created, (Al-ḥamdulillāhi alladhī `āfānī mimmabtalāka bihī wa faḍḍalanī `alā kathīrin mimman khalaqa tafḍīla)' he shall not be struck by that affliction."

Abu Hurairah narrated that:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever sits in a sitting and engages in much empty, meaningless speech and then says before getting from that sitting of his: 'Glory is to You, O Allah, and praise, I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except You, I seek You forgiveness, and I repent to You, (Subḥānaka Allāhumma wa biḥamdika, ashhadu an lā ilāha illā anta, astaghfiruka wa atūbu ilaik)' whatever occurred in that sitting would be forgiven to him."

Ibn Umar said:
"In one sitting of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), one could count that he said a hundred time, before he would get up: 'O my Lord, forgive me, and accept my repentance. Verily, You are the Oft-Returning, the Most Forgiving (Rabbighfirlī watub `alayya innaka antat-Tawwābul-Ghafūr).'"

Ibn Abbas narrated that :
when he was in distress, the Prophet of Allah (ﷺ) would supplicate: "There is none worthy of worship except Allah, the Forbearing, the Wise, there is none worthy of worship except Allah, the Lord of the Magnificent Throne, there is none worthy of worship except Allah, the Lord of the heavens and the earth, and the Lord of the Noble Throne (Lā ilāha illallāh al-`aliyyul ḥalīm, lā ilāha illallāh, rabbul-`arshil-`aẓīm, lā ilāha illallāh, rabbus-samāwāti wal-arḍi wa rabbul-`arshil-karīm)."

Abu Hurairah narrated that:
When a matter would worry the Prophet (ﷺ), he would raise his head up toward the sky and say: "Glory is to Allah, the Magnificent (Subḥān Allāhil-`Aẓīm)." And when he would strive in supplication; he would say: "O the Living, O Sustainer (Yā Ḥayyu yā Qayyūm)."

Sa`d bin Abi Waqqas narrated:
From Khawlah bint Al Hakim As-Sulamiyyah, that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever stops at a stopping place and then says: 'I seek refuge in Allah's Perfect Words from the evil of what He has created, (A`ūdhu bi-kalimātillāhit-tāmmāti min sharri mā khalaq)' nothing shall harm him until he departs from that stopping place of his."

Abu Hurairah narrated:
"When the Prophet (ﷺ) would travel, and he would mount his riding camel, he would gesture with his finger" – and Shu`bah stretched out his finger – "and say: 'O Allah You are the companion on the journey, and the caretaker for the family, O Allah, accompany us with Your protection, and return us in security, O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the difficulties of the journey, and from returning in great sadness (Allāhumma antaṣ-ṣāḥibu fis safari wal-khalīfatu fil-ahli, Allāhumma aṣḥabnā bi nuṣḥika waqlibnā bi-dhimmah, Allāhummazwi lanal-arḍa wa hawwin `alainas-safar, Allāhumma innī a'ūdhu bika min wa`thā'is-safari wa ka'ābatil-munqalab).'"

Abdullah bin Sarjis narrated that:
When the Prophet (ﷺ) wanted to travel, he would say: "O Allah, You are the companion on the journey, and the caretaker for the family, O Allah, accompany us in our journey, and watch over our families, O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the difficulties of the journey, and from returning in great sadness, and from loss after increase, and from the supplication of the oppressed, and from someone looking with evil at our families and wealth (Allāhumma antaṣ-ṣāḥibu fis safari wal-khalīfatu fil-ahli, allāhumma aṣḥabnā fī safarinā wakhlufnā fī ahlinā. Allāhumma innī a'ūdhu bika min wa`thā'is-safari wa ka'ābatil-munqalab, wa minal-ḥawri ba`dal-kawni, wa min da`watil-maẓlūm, wa min sū'il-manẓari fil-ahli wal-māl)."

Ar-Rabi` bin Al-Bara' bin `Azib reported from, his father:
That whenever the Prophet (ﷺ) would return from a trip, he would say: "(We are) Returning, repenting, worshipping, and to our Lord directing the praise (Ā'ibūna tā'būna `ābidūna lirabbinā ḥāmidūn)."

Anas narrated that:
When the Prophet would return from a trip and see the walls of Al-Madinah, he would speed up his riding camel, and if he was upon a beast, he would agitate it, out of his love for Al-Madinah.

Ibn Umar narrated, saying:
"When the Prophet (ﷺ) would bid farewell to a man, he would take his hand, and not let it go until the man let go of the hand, of the Prophet, and he would say: 'I entrust to Allah your religion, your trusts, and the last of your deeds (Astawdi`ullāha dīnaka wa amānataka wa ākhira `amalik).'"

Salim narrated that :
when he intended to undertake a journey, Ibn `Umar used to say to a person to "Come close to me so that I may bid you farewell as the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to bid us farewell." Then he would say: "I entrust to Allah your religion, and your trusts, and the last of your deeds (Astawdi`ullāha dīnaka wa amānataka wa khawātīma `amalik)."

Anas said:
"A man came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: 'I intend to undertake a journey, so give me provision. He said: 'May Allah grant you Taqwa as your provision (Zawwadak Allāhut-taqwā).' He said: 'Give me more.' He said: 'And may He forgive your sin (Wa ghafara dhanbak).' He said: 'Give me more, may my father be ransomed for you, and my mother.' He said: 'And may He make goodness easy for you wherever you are (Wa yassara lakal-khaira ḥaithu mā kunt).'"

Abu Hurairah [may Allah be pleased with him] narrated that :
a man said: "O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), I intend to travel, so advise me." He said, "Hold fast to the Taqwa of Allah, and (say the) Takbir upon every elevated place." So when the man turned away he said: "O Allah make near for him the distance, and ease for him the journey (Allāhummaṭwi lahul-arḍa wa hawwin `alaihis-safar)."

Ali bin Rabi'ah said:
"I witnessed Ali having an animal brought to him to ride. When he placed his foot in the stirrup he said: 'In the Name of Allah,' (Bismillāh) [three times]. So then, once he had ascended upon its back, he said: 'All praise is due to Allah.' (Al-ḥamdulillāh) then he said: Glory is to Him Who has subjected this to us, and we were not able to do it. And, surely, to our Lord are we returning (Subḥān alladhī sakh-khara lanā hādhā wa mā kunnā lahū muqrinīn. Wa innā ilā rabbinā lamunqalibūn). Then he said: 'All praise is due to Allah (Al-ḥamdulillāh)' – three times – and 'Allah is the Greatest (Allāhu Akbar)' – three times – 'Glory is to You, indeed I have wronged myself, so forgive me, for indeed none forgives sins except You (Subḥānaka innī qad ẓalamtu nafsī faghfirlī fa-innahū lā yaghfirudh-dhunūba illā ant).' Then he laughed. So I said: 'O Commander of the Believer! What caused you to laugh?' He said: 'I saw the Messenger of Allah do as I did, then he (ﷺ) laughed, so I said, 'What cause you to laugh?' He said: 'Indeed, your Lord is very pleased with His worshipper when he says: "O my Lord, forgive me my sins, indeed, no one other than You forgives sins."

Ibn `Umar narrated that:
When the Prophet (ﷺ) wanted to travel, when he mounted his riding camel, he would say the Takbir three times and say: Glory is to Him Who has subjected this to us, and we were not able to do it. And, surely, to our Lord are we returning (Subḥān alladhī sakh-khara lanā hādhā wa mā kunnā lahū muqrinīn. Wa innā ilā rabbinā lamunqalibūn). Then he would say: "O Allah, I ask You in this journey of mine from the righteousness and piety and actions that which you are pleased with. O Allah, ease for us the path, and make near for us the distance of the land. O Allah, You are the companion in the journey, and the caretaker for the family. O Allah, accompany us in our journey, and take care of our families (Allāhumma innī as'aluka fī safarī hādhā minal-birri wat-taqwā, wa minal-`amali mā tarḍā. Allāhumma hawwin `alainal-masīra, waṭwi `annā bu`dal-arḍ. Allāhumma antaṣ-ṣāḥibu fis safari wal-khalīfatu fil-ahli. Allāhumma aṣḥabnā fī safarinā wakhlufnā fī ahlinā)." And when he would return to his family, he would say: "(We are) Returning, if Allah wills, repenting, worshipping, and to our Lord directing the praise (Ā'ibūna in shā' Allāh, tā'ibūna `ābidūna lirabbinā hāmidūn)."

Abu Hurairah [may Allah be pleased with him] narrated :
that the Messenger of Allah said: "Three supplications are responded to: The supplication of the oppressed, the supplication of the traveler, and the supplication of the parent against his child." Ali bin Hujr narrated to us (he said): Ismail bin Ibrahim reported to us from Hisham Ad-Dastawa'i, from Yahya bin Abu Kathir with this chain, narrating similar to it, but he added to it: "responded to, there is no doubt in them."

Aishah [may Allah be pleased with her] narrates, saying:
"When the Prophet (ﷺ) would see the wind he would say: 'O Allah, indeed, I ask You for its good, the good of what is in it, and the good of what it has been sent with. And I seek refuge in You from its evil, the evil of what is in it, and the evil of what it has been sent with (Allāhumma innī as'aluka min khairihā wa khairi mā fīhā, wa khairi mā ursilat bihī, wa a`ūdhu bika min sharrihā wa sharri mā fīhā, wa sharri mā ursilat bih).'"

Salim bin Abdullah bin Umar narrated :
from his father, that when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would hear the sound of thunder and lightning bolts, he would say: "O Allah, do not kill us with Your wrath, and do not destroy us with Your punishment, and pardon us before that (Allāhumma lā taqtulnā bi-ghaḍabika wa lā tuhliknā bi-`adhābika wa `āfinā qabla dhālik)."

Bilal bin Yahya bin Talhah bin `Ubaidullah narrated :
from his father, from his grandfather Talhah bin `Ubaidullah that when the Prophet (ﷺ) would see a crescent moon, he would say: "O Allah, bring it over us with blessing and faith, and security and Islam. My Lord and your Lord is Allah (Allāhumma ahlilhu `alainā bil-yumni wal-Īmān, was-salāmati wal-Islām, rabbī wa rabbuk Allāh)."

Mu`adh bin Jabal narrated :
that one of the two men cursed the other next to the Prophet (ﷺ), until anger could be recognized in the face of one of them. So the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Verily, I know a statement, that if he were to say it, his anger would leave: 'I seek refuge in Allah from Shaitan, the rejected (A`ūdhu billāhi minash-shaiṭānir-rajīm).'"

Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri narrated that:
He heard the Prophet saying: "When one of you sees a dream that he likes, then it is from Allah, so let him praise Allah for it, and speak concerning what he saw. And when he sees other than that of what he dislikes, then it is from Shaitan, so let him seek refuge in Allah from its evil, and not mention it to anyone for, surely, it shall not harm him."

Abu Hurairah [may Allah be pleased with him] narrates, saying:
"When the people would see the first fruit, they would bring it to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would take it, he would say: 'O Allah, bless for us our fruits, and bless for us our city, and bless for us our Sa` and our Mudd, O Allah, verily, Ibrahim is Your worshipper and Your friend and Your Prophet, and verily I am Your slave and Your Prophet, and indeed, he (i.e., Ibrahim AS) supplicated to You for Makkah, and I supplicate to You for Al-Madinah with the like of that with which he supplicated to You for Makkah, and the like of it with it.' He said: Then he would call the smallest young child he saw and give him that fruit.

Ibn Abbas narrated:
"I entered with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), I and Khalid bin Al-Walid, upon Maimunah so she brought us a vessel of milk. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) drank from it. I was upon his right and Khalid was upon left, so he said to me: 'The (turn to) drink is for you, so if you wish, you could choose to grant it to Khalid.' So I said: 'I would not prefer anyone (above myself) for your leftovers.' Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'Whoever Allah feeds some food, then let him say: "O Allah, bless it for us, and feed us better than it, (Allāhumma bārik lanā fīhi wa aṭ`imnā khairan minhu)" and whomsoever Allah gives milk to drink, then let him say: "O Allah bless it for us, and grant us increase in it (Allāhumma bārik lanā fīhi wa zidnā minhu)." And the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, 'There is nothing that suffices in the place of food and drink except for milk.'"

Abu Umamah narrated that :
when the table spread would be lifted from in front of him, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would say: "All praise is due to Allah, abundant, good, blessed praise, without being left off, nor being without need of it, O our Lord (Al-ḥamdulillāhi ḥamdan kathīran ṭayyiban mubārakan fīhi, ghaira muwadda`in, wa lā mustaghnan `anhu rabbanā)."

Abu Sa`eed [may Allah be pleased with him] narrated that:

Sahl bin Mu`adh bin Anas narrated from his father that:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever eats food and then says: 'All praise is due to Allah who fed me this and granted it as provision to me, without any effort from me nor power, (Al-ḥamdulillāh, alladhī aṭ`amanī hādha wa razaqanīhi min ghairi ḥawlin minnī, wa lā quwwatin)' his past sins shall be forgiven."

Abu Hurairah [may Allah be pleased with him] narrated that:
The Prophet said: "when you hear the crowing of the roosters, then ask Allah of His bounty, for verily they have seen an angel. When you hear the braying of a donkey, then seek refuge in Allah from Shaitan, [the rejected] for, verily, it has seen a Shaitan."

Abdullah bin Amr narrated that :
the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "there is not anyone upon the earth who says: 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah, and Allah is the Greatest, and there is no might nor power except by Allah, (Lā ilāha illallāh, wa Allāhu akbar, wa lā ḥawla wa lā quwwata illā billāh) except that his sins shall be pardoned, even if they were like the foam of the sea."

Abu Musa Al-Ash`ari said:
"We were with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) on a military expedition. When we returned, we overlooked Al-Madinah, and the people were pronouncing the Takbir, and they raised their voices with it. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'Verily, your Lord is not deaf nor absent, [and] He is between you and between the heads of your mounts.' Then he said: 'O `Abdullah bin Qais, should I not inform you of a treasure from the treasures of Paradise: Lā ḥawla wa lā quwwata illā billāh (There is no might or power except by Allah).'"

Ibn Mas`ud narrated that:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "I met Ibrahim on the night of my ascent, so he said: 'O Muhammad, recite Salam from me to your nation, and inform them that Paradise has pure soil and delicious water, and that it is a flat treeless plain, and that its seeds are: "Glory is to Allah (Subḥān Allāh) [and] all praise is due to Allah (Al-ḥamdulillāh) and 'none has the right to be worshipped but Allah' (Lā ilāha illallāh), and Allah is the greatest (Allāhu Akbar)."

Mus`ab bin Sa`d narrated from his father, that :
the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to those sitting with him: "Is one of you incapable of attaining a thousand good deeds?" So a questioner among those seated with him asked him: "How can one of us earn a thousand good deeds?" He said: "(When) one of you recites a hundred Tasbīḥāt a thousand good deeds are written for him, and a thousand evil deeds are wiped away from him."

Jabir narrated that:

the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever says: 'Glory is to Allah, and with His Praise (Subḥān Allāh, wa biḥamdih)' a hundred times, his sins are forgiven, even if they were like the foam of the sea."

Abu Hurairah narrated that:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "There are two statements that are light on the tongue, heavy on the Scale, and beloved to Ar-Raḥmān: "Glory is to Allah and the praise; Glory is to Allah, the Magnificent. (Subḥān Allāhi wa biḥamdih, Subḥān Allāhil-Aẓīm)"

Abu Hurairah narrates that:
The Mesenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever says: 'There is none worthy of worship except Allah, Alone, without partner, to Him belongs all that exists and to Him belongs the praise, He gives life and causes death, and He is Powerful over all things, (Lā ilāha illallāh, waḥdahu lā sharīka lahu, lahul-mulku wa lahul-ḥamdu, yuḥyī wa yumītu, wa huwa `alā kulli shay'in qadīr)' a hundred times in a day, it will be for him the equivalent of freeing ten slaves, and there shall be written for him a hundred good deeds, and a hundred bad deeds shall be wiped out for him, and it will be a protection for him from Shaitan on that day, until he reaches the evening. And none has brought better than it, except for one who has done more than that." And with this chain, from the Prophet (ﷺ), that he said: "Whoever says: 'Glory is to Allah, and with His Praise (Subḥān Allāh, wa biḥamdih)' a hundred times, his sins are forgiven, even if they were more than the foam of the sea."

Abu Hurairah narrated that:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Whoever says in the morning and in the evening 'Glory is to Allah and with His Praise (Subḥān Allāh, wa biḥamdih)' a hundred times, none shall bring better than him on the Day of Judgment except one who did the same as him, or increased upon it."

Ibn `Umar narrated that one day, :
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to his Companions: "Say 'Glory is to Allah and with His Praise (Subḥān Allāh, wa biḥamdih)' a hundred times. Whoever says [it] one time, it is written for him ten, and whoever says it ten (times), it is written for him a hundred, and whoever says it a hundred (times), it is written for him a thousand, and whoever increases, Allah will increase for him, and whoever seeks Allah's forgiveness, [Allah] will forgive him."

`Amr bin Shu`aib narrated from his father, from his grandfather, that :
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever glorifies Allah a hundred times in the morning and a hundred in the night, he is like one who performs Hajj a hundred times. And whoever praises Allah a hundred times in the morning and a hundred in the night, he is like one who provides a hundred horses in the cause of Allah." – or he said – "went out on a hundred military expeditions. And whoever pronounced At-Tahlil of Allah a hundred times in the night, he is like the one who freed a hundred slaves from the offspring of Isma`il, and whoever extols Allah's greatness a hundred times in the day and a hundred in the night, none shall bring on that day, more than what he brought, except one who said similar to what he said, or increased upon it."

Az-Zuhri said:
"A Tasbihah in Ramadan is better than a thousand Tasbihah in other that it."

The Messsenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever says ten times: 'I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah. Alone, without partner, One Deity, the One, As-Samad, He did not take a wife, nor a child, nor is there anyone like Him, (Ash-hadu an lā ilāha illallāh, waḥdahu lā sharīka lahu, ilahan wahidan, aḥadan ṣamadan lam yattakhidh ṣāḥibatan wa lā waladan wa lam yakun lahu kufuwan aḥad)' Allah will write for him forty million good deeds."

Abu Dharr narrated that:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever says at the end of every Fajr prayer, while his feet are still folded, before speaking: 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah, Alone without partner, to Him belongs all that exists, and to Him is the praise, He gives life and causes death, and He is powerful over all things, (Lā ilāha illallāh, waḥdahu lā sharīka lahu, lahul-mulku wa lahul-ḥamdu, yuḥyī wa yumītu, wa huwa `alā kulli shay'in qadīr)' ten times, then ten good deeds shall be written for him, ten evil deeds shall be wiped away from him, ten degrees shall be raised up for him, and he shall be in security all that day from every disliked thing, and he shall be in protection from Shaitan, and no sin will meet him or destroy him that day, except for associating partners with Allah."

`Abdullah bin Buraidah Al Aslami narrated from his father, who said:
"The Prophet (ﷺ) heard a man supplicating, and he was saying: 'O Allah, indeed, I ask you by my testifying that You are Allah, there is none worthy of worship except You, the One, As-Samad, the one who does not beget, nor was begotten, and there is none who is like Him (Allāhumma innī as'aluka bi annī ashhadu annaka antallāh, lā ilāha illā ant, al-aḥaduṣ-ṣamad, alladhī lam yalid wa lam yūlad, wa lam yakun lahu kufuwan aḥad)." He said: "So he said: 'By the One in Whose Hand is my soul, he has asked Allah by His Greatest Name, the one which if He is called upon by it, He responds, and when He is asked by it, He gives.'"(One of the narrators) Zaid said: "So I mentioned it to Zuhair bin Mu`awiyah years after that, and he said: Abu Ishaq reported to me from Malik bin Mighwal.'" Zaid said: "Then I mentioned it to Sufyan, so he reported it to me from Malik."

Fadalah bin `Ubaid narrated:
"While the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was seated, a man entered and performed Salat, and he said: 'O Allah, forgive me, and have mercy upon me.' The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'You have rushed, O praying person. When you perform Salat and then sit, then praise Allah with what He is deserving of, and send Salat upon me, then call upon Him.'" He said: "Then another man performed Salat after that, so he praised Allah and sent Salat upon the Prophet (ﷺ). The Prophet (ﷺ) said to him: 'O praying person! Supplicate, and you shall be answered.'"

`Amr bin Malik Al-Janbi narrated that he heard Fadalah bin `Ubaid saying:
"The Prophet (ﷺ) heard a man supplicating in his Salat but he did not send Salat upon the Prophet (ﷺ), so the Prophet (ﷺ) said: 'This one has rushed.' Then he called him and said to him, or to someone other than him: 'When one of you performs Salat, then let him begin by expressing gratitude to Allah and praising Him. Then, let him send Salat upon the Prophet (ﷺ), then let him supplicate after that, whatever he wishes.'"

Asma bint Yazid narrated that the Prophet (ﷺ) said:
"Allah's greatest name is in these two Ayah: 'And your deity is One deity, there is none who has the right to be worshipped but He, Ar-Raḥmān, Ar-Raḥīm.' And the Opening of Al-`Imrān: 'Alif. Lām. Mīm. Allah, None has the right to be worshipped but He, the Ever living, the Sustainer.'"

Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
"Call upon Allah while being certain of being answered, and know that Allah does not respond to a supplication from the heart of one heedless and occupied by play."

"O Allah, grant me health in my body, and grant me health in my sight, and make it the inheritor from me, there is none has the right to be worshipped but Allah, the Forbearing, the Generous, Glory is to Allah, the Lord of the Magnificent Throne, and all praise is due to Allah, the Lord of all that exists (Allāhumma `āfinī fī jasadi, wa `āfinī fī baṣarī, waj`alhul-wāritha minnī, lā ilāha illāllah, al-ḥalīmul-karīm, subḥān Allāhi rabbil-`arshil-aẓīm, wal-ḥamdulillāhi rabbil-`alamīn)."

Abu Hurairah narrated that:
Fatimah came to the Prophet (ﷺ), asking him for a servant. So he (ﷺ) said to her: "Say: 'O Allah, Lord of the Seven Heavens and the Lord of the Magnificent Throne, our Lord, and the Lord of everything, Revealer of the Tawrah, the Injil, and the Quran, Splitter of the seed-grain and the date-stone, I seek refuge in You from the evil of everything that You are holding by the forelock, You are the First, for there is nothing above You, and You are the Last, for there is nothing after you. And you are az-Zahir, for there is nothing above you. And you are Al-Batin, for there is nothing below You. Relieve me from debt, and enrich me from poverty (Allāhumma rabbas samāwātis-sab`i wa rabbal-`arshil-`aẓīm, rabbana, wa rabba kulli shai'in, munzilat-Tawrāti wal-Injīli wal-Qur'ān, fāliqal-habbi wan-nawā, a`ūdhu bika min sharri kulli shai'in anta ākhidhun bināṣiyatihi, antal-awwalu falaisa qablaka shai'un, wa antal-ākhiru falaisa ba`daka shai'un, wa antaẓ-ẓāhiru falaisa fawqaka shai'un, wa antal-bāṭinu falaisa dūnaka shai'un, iqḍi `anni-daina wa aghnini minal-faqr)."

`Abdullah bin `Amr narrated that:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to say: "O Allah, I seek refuge in You from a heart that does not humble itself, and from a supplication that is not heard, and from a soul that is never satisfied, and from knowledge that does not benefit, I seek refuge in You from these four (Allāhumma innī a`ūdhu bika min qalbin lā yakhsha`u, wa min du`ā'in lā yusma`u, wa min nafsin lā tashba`u, wa min `ilmin lā yanfa`u, a`ūdhu bika min hā'ula'il-arba`)."

Imran bin Husain narrated:
"The Prophet (ﷺ) said to my father: 'O Husain, how many deities do you worship now?' He said: 'Seven. Six in the earth, and one above the heavens.' He said: 'So which of them do you take for your ardent requests and fears?' He said: 'The one above the heavens.' He said: 'O Husain, if you would but accept Islam, I would teach you two phrases that would benefit you.'" He said: "So when Husain accepted Islam, he said: 'O Messenger of Allah, teach me the two phrases you promised me.' So he (ﷺ) said: "Say: O Allah, inspire me with my guidance, and protect me from the evil of my soul (Allāhumma alhimnī rushdī, wa a`idhnī min sharri nafsī).'"

Anas bin Mallik [may Allah be pleased with him] narrates, saying:
"I used to often hear the Prophet (ﷺ) supplicating with these words: 'O Allah, I seek refuge in You from sadness, grief, helplessness, laziness, being stingy, overwhelming debt, and the overpowering of men (Allāhumma innī a`ūdhu bika minal-hammi wal-ḥazani wal-`ajzi wal-kasali wal-bukhli wa ḍala`id-dain wa ghalabatir-rijāl).'"

Anas narrated that :
The Prophet (ﷺ) used to supplicate, saying: "O Allah, indeed, I seek refuge in You from laziness, weakness of old age, cowardice, stinginess, the trial of Al-Masih, and the punishment of the grave (Allāhumma innī a`ūdhu bika minal-kasali wal-harami wal-jubni wal-bukhli wa fitnatil-masīḥi wa `adhabil-qabr)."

Abdullah bin Amr narrated:
"I saw the Prophet counting the Tasbih on his hand."

Anas bin Malik narrated that:
The Prophet (ﷺ) visited a man who was so emaciated that he had become like a baby bird. He (ﷺ) said to him: "And did you not used to supplicate? Did you not used to ask Your Lord for sound health?" He said: "I used to say: "O Allah, whatever You are going to punish me with in the Hereafter, then hasten it for me in this world." So the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Glory is to Allah, you are not capable of that" – or – "you are not able to stand that. Would you not say: 'O Allah, give us good in this world, and good in the Hereafter, and spare us the punishment of the Fire (Allāhumma ātinā fid-dunyā ḥasanatan wa fil ākhirati ḥasanatan wa qinā `adhāban-nār).'"

`Abdullah narrated that :
the Prophet (ﷺ) used to supplicate: "O Allah, indeed, I ask You for guidance, piety, chastity, and sufficiency (Allāhumma innī as'alukal-hudā wat-tuqā, wal-`afāfa wal-ghinā)."

Abu Ad-Darda' narrated that :
the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "It used to be from the supplication of Dawud that he would say: 'O Allah, indeed, I ask You for Your love and the love of those who love You, and for the action that will cause me to attain Your love, O Allah, make Your love more beloved to me than myself, my family and cold water (Allāhumma innī as'aluka ḥubbaka wa ḥubba man yuḥibbuka wal-`amalalladhī yuballighunī ḥubbak. Allāhummaj`al ḥubbaka aḥabba ilaiyya min nafsī, wa ahlī wa minal-mā'il-bārid) He said: "And when the Prophet (ﷺ) would mention Dawud, he would narrate about him, saying: "He was the best in worship out of all men."

`Abdullah bin Yazid Al-Khatmi Al-Ansari narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to say in his supplication:
"O Allah grant me Your love and the love of those whose love will benefit me with You. O Allah, whatever you have provided me of that which I love, then make it strength for me for that which You love. O Allah, and what you have kept from me of that which I love, then make it for me a period of rest in that which You love. (Allāhummarzuqnī ḥubbuka, wa ḥubba man yanfa`unī ḥubbuhū `indak. Allāhumma mā razaqtanī mimmā uḥibbu faj`alhu quwwatan lī fīmā tuḥibb. Allāhumma wa mā zawaita `annī mimmā uḥibbu faj`alhu farāghan lī fīmā tuḥibb). "

Shakal bin Humaid said:
"I came to the Prophetand said: 'O Messenger of Allah, teach me away of seeking refuge so that I may seek refuge by it." He said: "So he took my hand and said: 'Say: O Allah, indeed I seek refuge in Youfrom the evil of my hearing and the evil of my sight, and the evil of my tongue and the evil of my heart, and the evil of my semen (Allāhumma innī a`ūdhu bika min sharri sam`ī wa min sharri baṣarī, wa min sharri lisānī, wa min sharri qalbī, wa min sharri maniyyī).'"

Aishah narrated:
"I was sleeping at the side of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), then I lost him during the night. So I felt around for him, and my hand fell upon his feet while he was prostrating, and he was saying: 'I seek refuge in Your pleasure from Your anger, and in Your pardon from Your punishment. I cannot count Your praises. You are as You have praised Yourself (A`ūdhu biriḍāka min sakhaṭika wa bi mu`āfātika min `uqūbatika, lā uḥṣi thanā'an `alaika anta kamā athnaita `alā nafsik).'"

`Abdullah bin `Abbas narrated:
that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used [to teach them this supplication as he used] to teach them a Surat of the Quran: "O Allah, indeed, I seek refuge in you from the punishment of Hell, and from the punishment of the grave, and I seek refuge in You from the trial of the false Masih, and I seek refuge in You from the trial of living and dying. (Allāhumma innī a`ūdhu bika min `adhābi jahannam, wa min `adhābil-qabr, wa a`ūdhu bika min fitnatil-masīḥid-dajjāl, wa a`ūdhu bika min fitnatil-maḥyā wal-mamāt)"

Aishah narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to supplicate with these words:
"O Allah, indeed, I seek refuge in You from the trial of the Fire, and the punishment of the Fire, and the punishment of the grave, and the trial of the grave, and from the evil of the trial of the grave, and from the evil of the trials of riches, and from the evils of the trials of poverty, and from the evil of the trial of the false Masih. O Allah, wash my sins with water of ice and hail, and cleanse my heart of sins, as You cleansed a white garment of filth, and distance me and my sins as You distanced between the east and the west. O Allah, indeed, I seek refuge in You from laziness, senility, sin and debt. (Allāhumma innī a`ūdhu bika min fitnatin-nār, wa `adhābin-nār, wa `adhābil-qabr, wa fitnatil-qabr, wa min sharri fitnatil-ghinā, wa min sharri fitnatil-faqr, wa min sharri fitnatil- masīḥid-dajjāl. Allāhummaghsil khaṭāyāya bi-mā'ith-thalji wal-bardi, wa anqi qalbī minal-khaṭāyā kamā anqaitath-thawbal-abyaḍa minad-danas, wa bā`id bainī wa baina khaṭāyāya kama bā`adta bainal-mashriqi wal maghrib, Allāhumma innī a`ūdhu bika min al-kasali wal-harami wal-ma'thami wal-maghram)."

Aishah said:
"I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saying at his death: 'O Allah, forgive me and have mercy on me, and join me with the Highest Company (Allāhummaghfirlī warḥamnī wa alḥiqnī bir-rafīqil a`lā).'"

Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah said:
"None of you should say: 'O Allah forgive me if You wish. O Allah have mercy on me if You wish.' Let him be firm in asking, for there is none that can compel Him to do things."

Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah said:
"Our Lord descends every night to the nearest heaven, until the last third of the night remains, so He says: 'Who is calling upon Me so that I may answer him? Who is asking from Me so that I may give him? And who is seeking forgiveness from Me, so that I may forgive him.'"

Abu Umamah narrated:
"It was said: 'O Messenger of Allah, which supplication is most likely to be listened to?' He said: '(During) the last part of the night, and at the end of the obligatory prayers.'"

Abu Hurairah narrated that a man said:
"O Messenger of Allah, I heard your supplication last night, and the part of it that reached me of it, was that you said: 'O Allah, forgive me my sin, and expand for me my abode, and bless for me that which You have provided me' (Allāhummaghfirlī dhanbī, wa wassi` lī fī dārī, wa bārik lī fīmā razaqtanī). He said: 'Do you see that they leave off anything?'"

Anas narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
"Whoever says in the morning: 'O Allah we have reached morning, calling You to witness, and calling the carriers of Your Throne to witness, and Your angels, and all of Your creation, that You are Allah, none has the right to be worshipped but You, Alone, without partner, and that Muhammad (ﷺ) is Your slave and Your Messenger. (Allāhumma aṣbaḥnā nush-hiduka wa nush-hidu ḥamalata `arshika wa malā'ikataka wa jamī`a khalqika bi-annaka Allāh, lā ilāha illā anta, waḥdaka lā sharīka laka, wa anna Muḥammadan `abduka wa rasūluk)' Allah will forgive him for whatever he does that day, and if he says it in the evening, Allah will forgive him for whatever sin he commits that night."

Ibn `Umar said:
"Rarely would the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) stand from a sitting until he supplicated with these words for his Companions: 'O Allah, apportion for us, fear of You, that shall come between us and disobedience of You, and of obedience to You, which shall cause us to obtain Your Paradise, and of certainty, which shall make the afflictions of the world easy for us, and enjoyment of our hearing, and our seeing, and our strength as long as You keep us alive, and make it the inheritor of us. And let our vengeance be upon those who have wronged us, and aid us against those who show enmity towards us, and do not make our affliction in our religion, and do not make this world our greatest concern, nor the limit of our knowledge, and do not give power over us to those who will not have mercy on us. (Allāhumma-qsim lanā min khashyatika mā yaḥūlu, bainanā wa baina ma`āṣīka wa min ṭā`atika mā tuballighuna bihī jannatak, wa minal-yaqīni mā tuhawwinu bihī `alainā muṣībatid-dunyā, wa matti`na bi-asmā`inā wa abṣārina wa quwwatina mā aḥyaytanā, waj`alhul-wāritha minnā, waj`al tha'ranā `alā man ẓalamanā, wanṣurna `alā man `ādānā, wa lā taj`al muṣībatanā fī dīninā, wa lā taj`alid-dunyā akbara hamminā wa lā mablagha `ilminā, wa lā tusalliṭ `alainā man lā yarḥamunā).'"

Muslim bin Abi Bakrah said:
"My father heard me while I was saying: "O Allah, I seek refuge in You from sadness and laziness and the punishment of the grave (Allāhumma, innī a`ūdhu bika minal-hammi wal-kasali wa `adhābil-qabr).' He said: 'O my son, from who did you hear this?'" He said: "I said: 'I heard you saying them.' He said: 'Stick to them, for indeed, I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saying them.'"

Ali [may Allah be pleased with him] said:
"The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to me: 'Should I not teach you some words that if you say them, Allah will forgive you, even if you were already forgiven?' He said: 'Say: None has the right to be worshipped by Allah, the Most High, the Magnificent. None has the right to be worshipped by Allah, the Forbearing, the Generous. None has the right to be worshipped but Allah. Glory to Allah, the Lord of the Magnificent Throne. (Lā ilāha illallāhul-`aliyul-`aẓīm, lā ilāha illallāhul-ḥalīmul-karīm, lā ilāha illallāh, subḥān Allāhi rabbil-`arshil-`aẓīm.)'"

Ibrahim bin Muhammad bin Sa`d narrated from his father, from Sa`d that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
"The supplication of Dhun-Nun (Prophet Yunus) when he supplicated, while in the belly of the whale was: 'There is none worthy of worship except You, Glory to You, Indeed, I have been of the transgressors. (Lā ilāha illā anta subḥānaka innī kuntu minaẓ-ẓālimīn)' So indeed, no Muslim man supplicates with it for anything, ever, except Allah responds to him."

Abu Hurairah [may Allah be pleased with him] narrated the the Prophet said:
"Indeed Allah has ninety-nine Names, one hundred less one, whoever counts them shall enter Paradise."

Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
"Indeed, Allah has ninety-nine Names, one hundred less one, whoever counts them shall enter Paradise.

Abu Hurairah narrated that the Prophet said:
"Indeed, Allah has ninety-nine Names, whoever counts them shall enter Paradise."

Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
"When you pass by the gardens of Paradise, then feast." I said: "O Messenger of Allah, and what are the gardens of Paradise?" He said, "The Masajid." I said: "And what is feasting, O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "'Glory is to Allah, (Subḥān Allāh)' and 'All praise is due to Allah, (Al-Ḥamdulillāh)' and 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah, (Lā Ilāha Illallāh)' and 'Allah is the Greatest (Allāhu Akbar).'"

Anas bin Malik [may Allah be pleased with him] narrated that the Messenger of Allah said:
"When you pass by the gardens of Paradise, them feast." They said: "And what are the gardens of Paradise?" He said: "The circles of remembrance."

Umar bin Abu Salamah narrated from his mother, Umm Salamah, that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
"When a calamity strikes one of you, then let him say: 'Indeed, to Allah we belong and to Him we shall return. O Allah, I seek reward with You for my affliction, so reward me for it, and replace it for me with something better (Innā lillāhi wa innā ilaihi rāji`ūn, Allāhumma `indaka aḥtasibu muṣībatī fa'jurnī fīhā wa abdilnī minhā khair).'" When the time of death was near Abu Salamah, he said: 'O Allah, replace me for my wife, with better than me." So when he died, Umm Salamah said: "Indeed, to Allah we belong and to Him we shall return. I seek reward with Allah for my affliction, so reward me for it."

Anas bin Malik narrated that a man came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said:
"O Messenger of Allah, which supplication is the best?" He (ﷺ) said: "Ask Your Lord For Al-`Āfiyah and Al-Mu`āfāh in this world and in the Hereafter." Then he came to him on the second day and said: "O Messenger of Allah, which supplication is the best?" So he (ﷺ) said to him similar to that. Then he came to him on the third day, so he (ﷺ) said to him similar to that. He (ﷺ) said: "So when you have been given Al-`Āfiyah in this world, and you have been given it in the Hereafter, then you have succeeded."

Aishah narrated:
"I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, what is your view if I know when the Night of Al-Qadr is, then what should I say in it?" He said: 'Say: "O Allah, indeed You are Pardoning, [Generous,] You love pardon, so pardon me (Allāhumma innaka `Afuwwun [Karīmun], tuḥibbul-`afwa fa`fu `annī).'"

Al-`Abbas bin `Abdul-Muttalib said:
"I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, teach me something that I may ask Allah, [Mighty and Sublime] for.' He (ﷺ) said: 'Ask Allah for Al-`Āfiyah.' Then I remained for a day, then I came and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, teach me something that I may ask Allah for.' So he (ﷺ) said to me: "O Abbas, O uncle of the Messenger of Allah! Ask Allah for Al-`Āfiyah in the world and in the Hereafter."

[Ibn Umar narrated that the Messenger of Allah said (ﷺ):
"Allah has not been asked for anything more beloved to Him than being asked for Al-`Āfiyah.]

Aishah narrated from Abu Bakr As-Siddiq,:
that whenever the Prophet (ﷺ) wanted to do a matter, he would say: "O Allah, make it good for me and choose for me. (Allāhumma khir lī wakhtar lī)"

Abu Malik Al-Ash`ari narrated that the Messenger of Allah said:
"Al-Wudu is half of faith, and All praise is due to Allah (Al-Ḥamdulillāh) fills the Scale, and Glory is to Allah and all praise is to Allah (Subḥān Allāh wal-Ḥamdulillāh)' fill" - or - "fills what is between the heavens and the earth, and Salat is light and charity is an evidence, and patience is an illumination, and the Quran is a proof for you or against you. And all people shall come to the morning selling their souls, either setting it free or destroying it."

Abdullah bin Amr narrated that the Messenger of Allah said:
"At-Tasbīḥ is half of the Scale, and All praise is due to Allah (Al-Ḥamdulillāh)' fills it, and (as for) None has the right to be worshipped but Allah (Lā Ilāha Illallāh)' - there is no barrier to it from Allah until it reaches Him."

A man from Banu Sulaim narrated:
"The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) counted them out in my hand" - or - "in his hand: 'At-Tasbīḥ is half of the Scale, and "All praise is due to Allah (Al-Ḥamdulillāh)" fills it, and At-Takbīr (Allāhu Akbar) fills what is between the sky and the earth, and fasting is half of patience, and purification is half of faith."

Ali bin Abi Talib said:
"The most of what the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) supplicated with during the afternoon at Arafat while standing was: 'O Allah to You is the praise like the one You say, and better than what we say. O Allah, for You is all my Salat, my sacrifice, my living and my dying. And to You is my return, and to You, my Lord, belongs my inheritance. O Allah, indeed, I seek refuge in You from the punishment of the grave, the whispering of the chest, and the dividing of the affair. O Allah, indeed, I seek refuge in You from the evil of what the wind brings (Allāhumma lakal-ḥamdu, kalladhī taqūlu, wa khairan mimmā naqūl. Allāhumma laka ṣalātī wa nusukī, wa maḥyāya wa mamātī, ilaika ma'ābī, wa laka, rabbi, turāthī. Allāhumma innī a`ūdhu bika min `adhābil-qabri, wa waswasatiṣ-ṣadri, wa shatātil-amr. Allāhumma innī a`ūdhu bika min sharri mā tajī'u bihir-rīḥ)."

Abu Umamah narrated:
"The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) supplicated with many supplications of which we did not preserve a thing. We said: 'O Messenger of Allah, you supplicated with many supplications of which we did not preserve a thing.' He (ﷺ) said: 'Should I not direct you to what will include all of that? That you say: O Allah, we ask You from the good of what Your Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) asked You for, and we seek refuge in You from the evil of that which Your Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) sought refuge in You from, and You are the one from Whom aid is sought, and it is for You to fulfill, and there is no might or power except by Allah (Allāhumma innā nas'aluka min khairi mā sa'alaka minhu nabiyyuka Muḥammad, ṣallallāhu `alaihi wa sallam, wa na`ūdhu bika min sharri masta`ādha minhu nabiyyuka Muḥammad, ṣallallāhu `alaihi wa sallam, wa antal-musta`ānu wa `alaikal-balāgh, wa lā ḥawla wa lā quwwata illā billāh).'"

Shahr bin Hawshab said:
"I said to Umm Salamah: 'O Mother of the Believers! What was the supplication that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said most frequently when he was with you?" She said: 'The supplication he said most frequently was: "O Changer of the hearts, make my heart firm upon Your religion (Yā Muqallibal-qulūb, thabbit qalbī `alā dīnik).'" She said: 'So I said: "O Messenger of Allah, why do you supplicate so frequently: 'O Changer of the hearts, make my heart firm upon Your religion.' He said: 'O Umm Salamah! Verily, there is no human being except that his heart is between Two Fingers of the Fingers of Allah, so whomsoever He wills He makes steadfast, and whomever He wills He causes to deviate.'"

Sulaiman bin Buraidah narrated that his father said:
"Khalid bin Al-Walid al Makhzumi complained to the Prophet (ﷺ) saying: 'O Messenger of Allah, I do not sleep at night due to insomnia.' So Allah's Prophet (ﷺ) said: 'When you go to your bed, say: O Allah, Lord of the Seven Heavens and what they have shaded, Lord of the earths and what they carry, Lord of the Shayatin and those they have misguided, be for me a Protector against the evil of Your creation, all of them together, so that none of them should transgress against me, or oppress me, mighty is the one who seeks protection in You, and glorified is Your praise, and there is none worthy of worship other than You, and there is none worthy of worship except You. (Allāhumma rabbas-samāwātis-sab`i wa mā aẓallat, wa rabbal-arḍīna wa mā aqallat, wa rabbash-shayāṭīni wa mā aḍallat, kun lī jāran min sharri khalqika kullihim jamī`an an yafruṭa `alayya aḥadun minhum, aw an yabghiya `alayya, `azza jāruka wa jalla thanā'uka, wa lā ilāha ghairuka wa lā ilāha illā anta)."

Anas bin Malik said:
"Whenever a matter would distress him, the Prophet (ﷺ) would say: 'O Living, O Self-Sustaining Sustainer! In Your Mercy do I seek relief (Yā Ḥayyu yā Qayyūm, bi-raḥmatika astaghīth).'" And with this chain, that he said: "The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'Be constant with: "O Possessor of Majesty and Honor (Yā Dhal-Jalāli wal-Ikrām).'"

Anas narrated that the Prophet (ﷺ) said:
"Be constant with: 'O Possessor of Majesty and Honor (Yā Dhal-Jalāli wal-Ikrām).'"

Abu Umamah Al-Bahili said:
"I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saying: "Whoever goes to his bed while in a state of purity and remembering Allah, until slumber overtakes him, he shall not get up at any hour of the night and ask Allah for something from the good of the world and the Hereafter except that Allah shall grant it to him.'"

Mu`adh bin Jabal narrated that the Prophet (ﷺ) heard a man supplicating, saying:
"O Allah! Verily, I ask You for the bounty's completion (Allāhumma, innī as'aluka tamāman-ni`mah)." So he (ﷺ) said: "What thing is the bounty's completion?" He said: "A supplication that I made, that I hope for good by it." He (ﷺ) said: "Indeed, part of the bounty's completion is the entrance into Paradise, and salvation from the Fire." And he (ﷺ) heard a man while he was saying: "O Possessor of Majesty and Honor (Yā Dhal-Jalāli wal-Ikrām)" So he (ﷺ) said: "You have been responded to, so ask." And the Prophet (ﷺ) heard a man while he was saying: "O Allah, indeed, I ask You for patience (Allāhumma, innī as'alukaṣ-ṣabr)" He (ﷺ) said: "You have asked Allah for trial, so ask him for Al-`Āfiyah."

`Amr bin Shu`aib narrated from his father, from his grandfather, that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
"When one of you becomes frightened during sleep, then let him say: 'I seek refuge in Allah's Perfect Words from His anger, His punishment, and the evil of His creatures, from the whisperings of the Shayatin, and that they should come (A`ūdhu bikalimātillāhit-tāmmati min ghaḍabihī wa `iqābihī wa sharri `ibādih, wa min hamazātish-shayāṭīni wa an yaḥḍurūn).' For verily, they shall not harm him." He said: "So `Abdullah bin `Amr used to teach it to those of his children who attained maturity, and those of them who did not, he would write it on a sheet and then hang it around his neck."

Abu Rashid Al-Hubrani said:
"I came to `Abdullah bin `Amr and said to him: 'Report something to me that you heard from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).' So he set forth before me a scroll and said: 'This is what the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) wrote for me.'" He said: "So I looked in it and found in it: 'Indeed, Abu Bakr As-Siddiq, may Allah be pleased with him, said: "O Messenger of Allah, teach me what to say at morning and afternoon." He said: "O Abu Bakr, say: 'O Allah, Creator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the seen, there is none worthy of worship except You, Lord of everything and its Owner, I seek refuge in You from the evil of my soul and from the evil of Shaitan and his Shirk, or that I should do some evil to myself or bring it upon a Muslim (Allāhumma fāṭiras-samāwāti wal-arḍi, `ālimal-ghaibi wash-shahādati, lā ilāha illā anta, rabba kulli shai'in wa malīkahu, a`ūdhu bika min sharri nafsī wa min sharrish-shaiṭāni wa sharakihi, wa an aqtarifa `alā nafsī sū'an, aw ajurrahu ilā muslim).'"

`Amr bin Murrah said:
"I heard Abu Wa'il say: '`Abdullah bin Mas`ud said' and I said to him: 'Did you hear it from `Abdullah?' He said: 'Yes.' And he narrated it in Marfu` form that he said: 'There is none with more Ghirah than Allah, and due to this He prohibited the lewd sins, that which is apparent of them and that which is hidden. And there is none to whom praise is more beloved than Allah, and due to this, He praised Himself.'"

`Abdullah bin `Amr narrated from Abu Bakr As-Siddiq that he said:
"O Messenger of Allah, teach me a supplication that I may supplicate with in my Salat." He (ﷺ) said: "Say: 'O Allah, I have wronged myself much, and none forgives sins except You. So forgive me with forgiveness from You, and have mercy upon me, indeed, You are the Forgiving, the Merciful (Allāhumma innī ẓalamtu nafsī ẓulman kathīran wa lā yaghfirudh-dhunūba illā anta faghfirlī maghfiratan min `indika warḥamnī innaka antal-Ghafūrur-Raḥīm).'"

Al-Muttalib bin Abi Wada`ah said:
"Al-`Abbas came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and it is as if he heard something, so the Prophet (ﷺ) stood upon the Minbar and said: 'Who am I?' They said: 'You are the Messenger of Allah, upon you be peace.' He said: 'I am Muhammad bin `Abdullah bin `Abdul-Muttalib, indeed Allah created the creation, and He put me in the best group of them, then He made them into two groups, so He put me in the best group of them, the He made them into tribes, so He put me in the best of tribes, then He made them into houses, so He put me in the best of them in tribe and lineage.'"

Anas bin Malik narrated that:
the Prophet (ﷺ) passed by a tree with dry leaves, so he struck it with his staff, making the leaves fall. Then he said: "Indeed, 'all praise is due to Allah, (Al-Ḥamdulillāhh)' 'glory to Allah, (Subḥān Allāh)' 'none has the right to be worshipped by Allah, (Lā Ilāha Illallāh)' and 'Allah is the greatest (Allāhu Akbar)' cause the sins to fall from the worshipper, just as the leaves of this tree fall."

`Umarah bin Shabib As-Saba'i narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
"Whoever says: none has the right to be worshipped but Allah, Alone, without partner, to Him belongs all that exists, and to Him belongs the praise, He gives life and causes death, and He is powerful over all things, (Lā ilāha illallāh, waḥdahu lā sharīka lahu, lahul-mulku wa lahul-ḥamdu, yuḥyī wa yumītu, wa huwa `alā kulli shai'in qadīr)' ten times at the end of Al-Maghrib - Allah shall send for him protectors to guard him from Shaitan until he reaches morning, and Allah writes for him ten good deeds, Mujibat, and He wipes from him ten of the destructive evil deeds, and it shall be for him the equal of freeing ten believing slaves."
