حَدَّثَنَا مُعَلَّى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُهَيْلُ بْنُ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا أَصْبَحَ قَالَ: ”اللَّهُمَّ بِكَ أَصْبَحْنَا، وَبِكَ أَمْسَيْنَا، وَبِكَ نَحْيَا، وَبِكَ نَمُوتُ، وَإِلَيْكَ النُّشُورُ“، وَإِذَا أَمْسَى قَالَ: ”اللَّهُمَّ بِكَ أَمْسَيْنَا، وَبِكَ أَصْبَحْنَا، وَبِكَ نَحْيَا، وَبِكَ نَمُوتُ، وَإِلَيْكَ الْمَصِيرُ.“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) would enter the morning, he would recite this supplication: «اللَّهُمَّ بِكَ أَصْبَحْنَا ...... » “O Allah! By Your grace we have reached the morning and by Your grace we reach the evening. By Your grace we live and by Your name we die, and to You is the resurrection.” And when he would enter the evening, he would say: “O Allah! By Your grace we have reached the evening, and by Your grace we reach the morning, and by Your grace we live and by Your name we die, and to You is the return.”
