Dhikr No.25

Narrated by Ibn Abbas (May Allah be pleased with him):

When the Prophet (ﷺ) got up at night to offer the night prayer, he used to say:

“‏ اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ، أَنْتَ نُورُ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَمَنْ فِيهِنَّ، وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ قَيِّمُ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَمَنْ فِيهِنَّ، وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ، أَنْتَ الْحَقُّ وَوَعْدُكَ حَقٌّ، وَقَوْلُكَ حَقٌّ، وَلِقَاؤُكَ حَقٌّ، وَالْجَنَّةُ حَقٌّ، وَالنَّارُ حَقٌّ، وَالسَّاعَةُ حَقٌّ، وَالنَّبِيُّونَ حَقٌّ، وَمُحَمَّدٌ حَقٌّ، اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ أَسْلَمْتُ وَعَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ، وَإِلَيْكَ أَنَبْتُ، وَبِكَ خَاصَمْتُ، وَإِلَيْكَ حَاكَمْتُ، فَاغْفِرْ لِي مَا قَدَّمْتُ وَمَا أَخَّرْتُ، وَمَا أَسْرَرْتُ، وَمَا أَعْلَنْتُ، أَنْتَ الْمُقَدِّمُ وَأَنْتَ الْمُؤَخِّرُ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ ـ أَوْ ـ لاَ إِلَهَ غَيْرُكَ ‏”‏‏.‏

 “Allahumma lakal-hamdu; Anta nuris-samawati wal ardi wa man fihinna. wa lakal-hamdu; Anta qayyumus samawati wal ardi wa man fihinna. Wa lakaI-hamdu; Antal-haqqu, wa wa’daka haqqun, wa qauluka haqqun, wa liqa’uka haqqun, wal-jannatu haqqun, wannaru haqqun, was-sa’atu haqqun, wan-nabiyyuna huqqun, Wa Mahammadun haqqun, Allahumma laka aslamtu, wa Alaika tawakkaltu, wa bika amantu, wa ilaika anabtu, wa bika Khasamtu, wa ilaika hakamtu, faghfirli ma qaddamtu wa ma akh-khartu, wa ma asrartu, wa ma a’lantu. Antal-muqaddimu, wa antal-mu-‘akhkhiru. La ilaha il-la anta (or La ilaha ghairuka)”

“O Allah, to You be the praise; You are supreme over the heavens and the earth and their inhabitants. To You be the praise; You are the Light of the heavens and the earth and their inhabitants. To You be the praise; You are the King of the heavens and the earth and their inhabitants. To You be the praise; You are the Truth, Your promise is truth, the meeting with You is true, Your word is true, paradise is true, hell is true, the prophets are true, Muhammad is true, the last hour is true. O Allah, to You I submit, in You I believe upon You I trust, to You I repent, by Your help I have disputed, and to You I have come for decision, so forgive me my former and my latter sins, my secret and my open sins, and what You know better than I. You are He who brings forward, and You are He who defers. There is no god but You, and there is no other god than You.”
