Athkaar and Quraan for Bedtime

2010 Talibiddeen Jr.

Its time for bed!


Have you:

Cleaned your room?

Brushed your teeth? Put on your pajamas?

Put away your day clothes properly?

Laid out your clothes for tomorrow?

Gone to the bathroom?

Gotten a drink of water?

Said good night to everyone?

Now, lets remember Allah before we go to bed by making thikr, because:

for men and women who engage much in Allaah's remembrance, for them has Allaah prepared forgiveness and great reward..
[Soorah al-Ahzaab, Aayah 35] 2010 Talibiddeen Jr.

When retiring to his bed every night, The Prophet (sallAllahu 'alayhi wa sallam) would hold his palms together, and (whilst blowing would) lightly spit in them, recite the last three chapters of the Quraan and then wipe over his entire body as much as possible with his hands, beginning with his head and face and then all parts of the body, he would do this three times.

If you take to your bed, then perform ablution, lie on your right side [and then supplicate [the following thikr] ...If you then die, you will die upon the fitrah.

O Allah, I submit my soul unto You, and I entrust my affair unto You, and I turn my face towards You, and I totally rely on You, in hope and fear of You. Verily there is no refuge nor safe haven from You except with You. I believe in Your Book which You have revealed and in Your Prophet whom You have sent. ...If you then die, 2010 Talibiddeen Jr. you will die upon the fitrah .
