1 hadith
Hadith 2600
Abu Salamah bin Abdur Rahman reports: I asked Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her), "When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would wake up at night, with what would he begin his prayer?" She replied: When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would stand for prayer at night, at the beginning of his prayer (he would recite this supplication): "O Allah! Lord of Jibreel, Mikaeel, and Israfeel! O Creator of the heavens and the earth, O Knower of the unseen and the seen, You will judge between Your servants concerning that wherein they differ. Guide me to the truth concerning that which is disputed, for surely You guide whom You will to the straight path."
