Hadith 18680

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حَفْصٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَن أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ ، عَن الْبَرَاءِ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِذَا أَوَيْتَ إِلَى فِرَاشِكَ ، فَقُلْ : اللَّهُمَّ أَسْلَمْتُ نَفْسِي إِلَيْكَ ، وَوَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِي إِلَيْكَ ، وَفَوَّضْتُ أَمْرِي إِلَيْكَ ، وَأَلْجَأْتُ ظَهْرِي إِلَيْكَ ، رَغْبَةً وَرَهْبَةً إِلَيْكَ ، لَا مَلْجَأَ وَلَا مَنْجَا إِلَّا إِلَيْكَ ، آمَنْتُ بِكِتَابِكَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلْتَ ، وَبِنَبِيِّكَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلْتَ ، فَإِنْ مِتَّ مِنْ لَيْلَتِكَ ، مِتَّ وَأَنْتَ عَلَى الْفِطْرَةِ ، وَإِنْ أَصْبَحْتَ ، أَصَبْتَ خَيْرًا " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) instructed an Ansari that when he comes to his bed, he should say: O Allah, I have submitted myself to You, turned my face towards You, entrusted my affairs to You, and relied on You alone for support. My desire is for You, and I fear You. There is no refuge or sanctuary except with You. I have believed in Your Book which You have revealed and in Your Prophet whom You have sent. If the one who says these words dies that night, he will die upon the natural faith (fitrah). If he reaches the morning, he will reach it with abundant good.
