Adkhār When Beginning Qiyām al-Layl (The Night Prayer)

 ADKHĀR WHEN BEGINNING QIYĀM AL-LAYL (THE NIGHT PRAYER)






It was narrated that 'Asim bin Humaid said: "I asked 'Āishah with what did he- meaning the Prophet (ﷺ)- start Qiyām al-Layl? She said: 'You have asked me something which no one before you has asked. The Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) used to say;

Takbir (Allāhu Akbar) Ten times,
 
Taḥmid (Alḥamdulillāh) Ten times, 

Tasbīḥ (Subḥānallāh) Ten times, 

Tahlil (Lā ilāha illallāhu) Ten times and

Pray for forgiveness (Astaghfirllāh) Ten times each and then say;

اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي وَاهْدِنِي وَارْزُقْنِي وَعَافِنِي أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ ضِيقِ الْمَقَامِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ

Allahummaghfirlī, wahdinī, warzuqnī wa 'āfinī. A'udhu billāh min ḍīqil-maqāmi yawmal-qiyāmah 

(O Allāh, forgive me, guide me, grant me provision and good health. I seek refuge with Allāh from the difficulty of standing on the Day of Resurrection.)"


Sunan an-Nasa'i 1617
