Sahih al-Bukhari 6311

Hadith text

Narrated Al-Bara bin `Azib:Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to me, "When you want to go to bed, perform ablution as you do for prayer, then lie down on your right side and say: 'Allahumma aslamtu wajhi ilaika, wa fawwadtu 'amri ilaika wa alja'tu dhahri ilaika, raghbatan wa rahbatan ilaika, la malja'a wa la manja minka illa ilaika. Amantu bikitabik al-ladhi anzalta wa binabiyyika al-ladhi arsalta'. If you should die then (after reciting this) you will die on the religion of Islam (i.e., as a Muslim); so let these words be the last you say (before going to bed)" While I was memorizing it, I said, "Wa birasulika al-ladhi arsalta (in Your Apostle whom You have sent).' The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "No, but say: Wa binabiyyika al-ladhi arsalta (in Your Prophet whom You have sent)

Al-Bara bin Azib bataate hain: Allah ke Rasool (SAW) ne mujhse kaha, 'Jab tum so-ne ka iraada karo, wuzu karo jaisa tum namaz ke liye karte ho, phir apni daayin taraf let jao aur kaho: "Allahumma Aslamtu Wajhi Ilaika, Wa Fawwadtu Amri Ilaika, Wa Alja'tu Zahri Ilaika, Raghbatan Wa Rahbatan Ilaika, La Malja'a Wa La Manja Minka Illa Ilaika. Amantu Bikitabikal-ladhi Anzalta Wa Binabiyyikal-ladhi Arsalta." (Aye Allah! Maine apna chehra tere hawaale kiya, aur apna maamla tere supurd kiya, aur apni peeth tere sahaare tikaayi, teri raghbat aur khauf ke saath; koi panaah ya bachaao ki jagah nahi tere siwa. Main tujhpar aur teri utaari hui Kitaab par, aur tere bheje Nabi par Iman laata hoon.) Agar tum (ye padhne ke baad) mar jao, to tum Islam ke deen par marogei; isliye ye alfaaz apne aakhri alfaaz banao (so-ne se pehle).' Jab main ise yaad kar raha tha, maine kaha, 'Wa Birasulikal-ladhi Arsalta' (aur tere bheje Rasool par). Nabi (SAW) ne kaha, 'Nahi, balke kaho: Wa Binabiyyikal-ladhi Arsalta (aur tere bheje Nabi par).'
