Placing right hand under right cheek when sleeping
Tirmidhi's Shama'il 253 — Placing right hand under right cheek when
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا أَخَذَ مَضْجَعَهُ وَضَعَ كَفَّهُ الْيُمْنَى تَحْتَ خَدِّهِ الْأَيْمَنِ، وَقَالَ: «رَبِّ قِنِي عَذَابَكَ يَوْمَ تَبْعَثُ عِبَادَكَ»
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Bara’ bin ‘Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would go to his bed, he would place his right hand under his right cheek and supplicate as follows: «رب قني عذابك يوم تبعث عبادك», “O Allah! Protect me from Your punishment on the Day when You resurrect Your servants.”
