1 – Blowing into the cupped palms and reciting the three mu‘awwidhaat [soorahs

seeking refuge with Allah, the last three soorahs of the Qur’an]:

It was narrated from ‘Aa’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her)

That when the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) went to his
bed every night, he would put his cupped hands together, then blow into them,
then recite into them ​Qul Huwa Allahu ahad​, ​Qul a’oodhu bi Rabb il-Falaq​ and
Qul a’oodhu bi Rabb il-Naas​ [i.e., the last three soorahs of the Qur’aan), then he
would wipe his hands over as much of his body as he could, starting with his
head and face, and the front part of his body. He would do that three times.

The word translated here as blow refers to spitting lightly and drily.

Narrated by al-Bukhaari (5017).

2 – Aayat al-Kursiy

It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said:

The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) put me in
charge of guarding the collected zakaah of Ramadaan. Someone came and
started to rummage in the food. I took hold of him and said, I will surely take you
to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).… He [the
one who came and rummaged in the food] said, When you go to your bed, recite
Aayat al-Kursiy and you will be protected by Allah, and no devil will come near
you until morning. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said,
“He told you the truth even though he is a liar. That was a devil.”

Narrated by al-Bukhaari (2311).

3 – The last two verses of Soorat al-Baqarah

It was narrated that Abu Mas‘ood (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The
Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said:

“Whoever recites the last two verses of Soorat al-Baqarah every night, they will
suffice him.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari (5009) and Muslim (808).

The scholars differed as to what is meant by “they will suffice him.” It was said
that it means they will protect him from harm during the night; or they will take
the place of praying qiyaam on that night. It may be that both are meant. And
Allah knows best.

4 – Soorat al-Kaafiroon

It was narrated that Nawfal al-Ashja‘i (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The
Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said to me:
“Recite ‘Say: O disbelievers’ [al-Kaafiroon 109], then go to sleep at the end of it,
for it is a disavowal of shirk.”

Narrated by Abu Dawood (5055); classed as hasan by Ibn Hajar in ​Nataa’ij

al-Afkaar (​ 3/61).

5 – Soorat al-Israa’

It was narrated that ‘Aa’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said:

The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) would not sleep before
he recited Bani Israa’eel [al-Israa’] and az-Zumar.

Narrated by at-Tirmidhi (3402); he said: a hasan hadith. It was classed as hasan

by al-Haafiz Ibn Hajar in ​Nataa’ij al-Afkaar​ (3/65).

6 – Soorat az-Zumar

The evidence for this is the hadith quoted above.

7 – “In Your name, O Allah, I die and I live.”

It was narrated that Hudhayfah ibn al-Yamaan (may Allah be pleased with him)
said:

When the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) wanted to sleep, he

would say, “​Allahumma bismika ahyaa wa amoot​ (​ ‫ﻮت َوأَ ْﺣ َﯿﺎ‬

“​Al-hamdu Lillaah alladhi ahyaanaa ba’da ma amaatanaa wa ilayhi al-nushoor
(Praise be to Allah who has brought us back to life after causing us to die, and to

Him is the resurrection).(​ ‫ﻮر‬ ِ ‫”)ا ْﻟ َﺤ ْﻤ ُﺪ ِﱠ‬

You and I rely totally on You, out of fear and hope of You. There is no refuge or
sanctuary from You except in You. I believe in Your Book which You have
revealed and in Your Prophet whom You have sent”

It was narrated that al-Baraa’ ibn ‘Aazib said: Prophet (peace and blessings of
Allah be upon him) said: “When you go to bed, do wudoo’ as if for prayer, then lie
down on your right side, then say: ‘​Allahummah aslamtu nafsi ilayk, wa wajahtu

You. I believe in Your Book which You have revealed and in Your Prophet whom
You have sent).’ Then if you die, you will have died on the fitrah, (natural state),
so make these the last words you speak.” I repeated [these words] to the Prophet
(blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) and when I reached the words
“​Aamantu bi kitaabik alladhi anzalt​ (I believe in Your Book which You have
revealed)”, I said, “​wa bi rasoolika​ (and in Your Messenger).” He said: “No; ‘​wa bi
nabiyyika​ (and in Your Prophet)’.”

Narrated by al-Bukhaari (6311) and Muslim (2710).

9 – “In Your name, my Lord, I lie down, and in Your name I rise. If You should take
my soul then have mercy on it, and if You should return my soul then protect it as
You protect Your righteous slaves”

It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The
Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said:

“When one of you goes to his bed, let him dust off his bed with the inside of his
lower garment, for he does not know what came onto it after he left it. Then let
him say: ​Bismika Rabbee wada’tu janbi wa bika arfa’uhu wa in amsakta nafsi

and if You should return my soul then protect it as You protect Your righteous

Narrated by al-Bukhaari (6320) and Muslim (2714).

10 – Recite “Subhaan Allah” thirty-three times, “al-hamdulillah” thirty-three times,

and “Allahu akbar” thirty-four times.

It was narrated from ‘Ali ibn Abi Taalib that Faatimah (may Allah be pleased with
her) went to the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) and asked
him for a servant. He said:

“Shall I not tell you of something that is better for you than that? When you go to
sleep, glorify Allah (by saying ​Subhaan Allah)​ thirty-three times, praise Allah (by
saying ​Al-hamdu Lillah​) thirty-three times, and magnify Him (by saying ​Allahu
akbar​) thirty-four times.” And I have never abandoned [that practice] since then. It
was said: Not even on the night of Siffeen? He said: Not even on the night of
Siffeen.

Narrated by al-Bukhaari (5362) and Muslim (2727).

11 – “O Allah, protect me from Your punishment on the Day You resurrect Your
slaves”

It was narrated from Hafsah (may Allah be pleased with her) that when the
Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) wanted to sleep,
he would put his right hand under his right cheek, then he would say:

“​Allahumma qini ‘adhaabaka yawma tab’ath ‘ibaadaka ( َ‫اﻟﻠﱠﻬُﻢﱠ ﻗِﻨِﻲ ﻋَﺬَاﺑَﻚَ ﯾَﻮْم‬

al-Baari (11/119).
12 – “Praise be to Allah, Who fed us and gave us to drink, and Who is sufficient
for us and has sheltered us, for how many have none to suffice them or shelter
them”

It was narrated from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the
Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) went to his bed,
he said: “​Al-hamdu Lillaah alladhi at’amanaa wa saqaanaa wa kafaanaa wa
aawanaa fakam mimman laa kaafi lahu wa laa mu’wi​ (Praise be to Allah, Who fed
us and gave us to drink, and Who is sufficient for us and has sheltered us, for
how many have none to suffice them or shelter them).”

13 – “O Allah, You have created my soul and it is for You to take it in death. Its
death and its life are in Your hand. If You cause it to live then protect it and if You
cause it to die then forgive it. O Allah, I ask You to keep me safe and sound”

It was narrated from ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar that he instructed a man, when he went
to his bed, to say:

“​Allahumma khalaqta nafsi wa anta tawaffaaha, laka mamaatuha wa mahyaaha. In

ahyaytaha fahfazha wa in amattaha faghfir laha. Allahumma inni as’aluka
al-‘aafiyah​ (O Allah, You have created my soul and it is for You to take it in death.
Its death and its life are in Your hand. If You cause it to live then protect it and if
You cause it to die then forgive it. O Allah, I ask You to keep me safe and sound).”

A man said to him: Did you hear that from ‘Umar? He said: From one who is
better than ‘Umar, from the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be
upon him).

Narrated by Muslim (2712).

14 – “O Allah, Lord of the heavens, Lord of the earth and Lord of the mighty
Throne, our Lord and Lord of all things, Splitter of the seed and the date stone,
Revealer of the Tawraat (Torah), the Injeel (Gospel) and the Furqaan (Qur’an), I
seek refuge in You from the evil of every creature that You seize by the forelock
[i.e., have full control over them]. O Allah, You are the First and there is nothing

(al-Zaahir) and there is nothing above You; You are the Hidden (al-Baatin) and
there is nothing beyond You. Settle our debt and spare us from poverty”
It was narrated that Suhayl said: Abu Saalih used to tell us, if one of us wanted to
sleep, to lie down on his right side and say:

“​Allahumma Rabb as-samawaati wa Rabb al-ard wa Rabb al-‘arsh il-‘azeem,

peace of Allah be upon him).

Narrated by Muslim (2713).

15 – “O Allah, I seek refuge in Your noble countenance and Your perfect words
from the evil of all things that You seize by the forelock [i.e., have full control over
them]. O Allah, You remove debt and sin. O Allah, Your troops will not be
defeated, Your promise will not be broken, nor can the richness of a rich man
avail him anything before You, glory and praise be to You.”

It was narrated from ‘Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) from the Messenger of
Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) that he used to say when going
to his bed: “​Allahumma inni a‘oodhu bi wajhika al-kareemi wa kalimaatik

All​a​h! There is no God but He, the Ever Living, the One Who
sustains and protects all that exists. Neither slumber nor sleep
overtakes Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and
whatever is on the earth. Who is he that can intercede with Him
except with His Permission? He knows what happens to them in
this world, and what will happen to them in the Hereafter. And
they will never encompass anything of His Knowledge except
that which He wills. His Throne extends over the heavens and
the earth, and He feels no fatigue in guarding and preserving
them. And He is the Most High, the Most Great.

The Messenger believes in what has been send down to him

from his Lord, and so do the believers. Each one believes in
All​a​h, His Angels, His Books, and His Messengers. They say:
"We make no distinction between any of His Messengers," and
they say: "We hear, and we obey. (We seek) Your Forgiveness,
our Lord, and to You is the return." All​a​h burdens not a person
beyond what he can bear. He gets reward for that (good) which
he has earned, and he is punished for that (evil) which he has
earned. Our Lord! Punish us not if we forget or fall into error.
Our Lord! Lay not on us a burden like that which You did lay on
those before us. Our Lord! Put not on us a burden greater than
we have strength to bear. Pardon us and grant us forgiveness.
Have mercy on us. You are our Protector, and help us against
the disbelieving people.
Al-Baqarah 2:285-6. These two Verses will be sufficient for
anyone who recites them at night before sleeping. Bu​kha​ri 9/94,
