حَدَّثَنَا صَدَقَةُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ أَخْبَرَنَا الْوَلِيدُ عَنِ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عُمَيْرُ بْنُ هَانِئٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي جُنَادَةُ بْنُ أَبِي أُمَيَّةَ حَدَّثَنِي عُبَادَةُ بْنُ الصَّامِتِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ: «مَنْ تَعَارَّ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَقَالَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ. الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَسُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَلَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ وَلَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ. ثُمَّ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي — أَوْ دَعَا — اسْتُجِيبَ، فَإِنْ تَوَضَّأَ وَصَلَّى قُبِلَتْ صَلَاتُهُ».
Whoever wakes in the night and says: “There is none worthy of worship except Allah, alone without partner; to Him belongs the kingdom and to Him belongs praise, and He is over all things capable. All praise is for Allah, glory be to Allah, there is none worthy of worship except Allah, Allah is the Greatest, and there is no power nor might except with Allah,” then says “O Allah, forgive me” or supplicates, he will be answered; if he performs ablution and prays, his prayer will be accepted.
Notes
Hisnul Muslim chapter 1, dua 2, uses Ibn Majah’s wording (including “al-‘Aliyy al-‘Azim” and “Rabbi ighfir li”). This card is the Bukhari report that carries the same virtue.
