Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah

Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would stand for the Tahajjud prayer, after saying the Takbir, he would recite this (praise and supplication): « اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ نُورُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ، وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ قِيَامُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ، وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ رَبُّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَنْ فِيهِنَّ، أَنْتَ الْحَقُّ وَقَوْلُكَ حَقٌّ، وَ وَعْدُكَ الْحَقُّ، وَلِقَاؤُكَ حَقٌّ، وَالْجَنَّةُ حَقٌّ، وَالنَّارُ حَقٌّ، وَالسَّاعَةُ حَقٌّ، اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ أَسْلَمْتُ، وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ، وَعَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ، وَإِلَيْكَ أَنَبْتُ، وَإِلَيْكَ أَنَبْتُ، وَإِلَيْكَ حَاكَمْتُ، وَإِلَيْكَ خَاصَمْتُ، وَإِلَيْكَ الْمَصِیْرُ، اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْلِي مَا قَدَّمْتُ وَمَا أَخَّرْتُ، وَمَا أَسْرَرْتُ، وَمَا أَعْلَنْتُ، أَنْتَ إِلٰھِیْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ » "O Allah, all praise is for You, You are the Light of the heavens and the earth, and all praise is due to You. You are the Sustainer and Maintainer of the heavens and the earth, and all praise is for You. You are the Lord of the heavens, the earth, and whatever is in them. You are the Truth, Your word is true, Your promise is true, the meeting with You is true, Paradise is true, Hell is true, and the Hour is true. O Allah, I submit to You, I believe in You, I put my trust in You, I turn to You, I seek judgment from You, and I argue by Your help, and to You is the return. O Allah, forgive my past and future sins, my hidden and open sins. You are my God, there is no true god except You."
