أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاق ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَاءَ بْنَ عَازِبٍ ، يَقُولُ : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَمَرَ رَجُلًا إِذَا أَخَذَ مَضْجَعَهُ أَنْ يَقُولَ :" اللَّهُمَّ أَسْلَمْتُ نَفْسِي إِلَيْكَ، وَوَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِي إِلَيْكَ، وَفَوَّضْتُ أَمْرِي إِلَيْكَ، وَأَلْجَأْتُ ظَهْرِي إِلَيْكَ، رَغْبَةً وَرَهْبَةً إِلَيْكَ، لَا مَلْجَأَ وَلَا مَنْجَى مِنْكَ إِلَّا إِلَيْكَ، آمَنْتُ بِكِتَابِكَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلْتَ، وَنَبِيِّكَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلْتَ، فَإِنْ مَاتَ، مَاتَ عَلَى الْفِطْرَةِ "
Abu Al-Walid told us, Shu’bah told us, he said: Abu Ishaq told us, he said: I heard Al-Bara’ bin Aazib, saying: The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: God, upon him be peace, commanded a man when he went to bed to say: “O God, I have surrendered myself to You, and I have turned my face to You, and I have entrusted my affairs to You.” To You, and I turn my back to You, out of desire and fear for You. There is no refuge or refuge from You except in You. I believe in Your Book which you have sent down. And your Prophet whom you sent, if he dies, he dies on the Fitrah.”
