٢٨٢٢١ - حدثنا محمد بن فضيل عن عطاء بن السائب عن أبيه قال: كنت قاعدًا عند عمار فأتاه رجل فقال: ألا أعلمك كلمات؟ قال: كأنه يرفعهن إلى النبي ﷺ (١): "إذا اخذت مضجعك من الليل فقل: اللهم أسلمت نفسي إليك ووجهت وجهي (إليك) (٢)، وفوضت أمري اليك، وألجأت ظهري اليك، آمنت بكتابك المنزل، ونبيك المرسل، (اللهم) (٣) نفسي خلقتها، لك محياها ومماتها، فإن (كَفَتَّها) (٤) فارحمها، وإن أخرتها فاحفظها بحفظ الإيمان" (٥) (٦).
Hazrat Saib narrates that I was sitting with Hazrat Ammar when a person came to him. He said: Shall I not teach you a few words? The narrator says it was as if he was relating these words from the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): When you lie down on your bed at night, say: O Allah! I have entrusted my soul to You, and I have turned my face towards You, and I have entrusted my affairs to You, and I have taken You as my protector. I have believed in the Book You have revealed, and in the Prophet You have sent. You alone created my soul; for You alone is its living and its dying. If You cause it to die, then have mercy on it, and if You postpone its death, then protect it, along with safeguarding faith.
