(21) Chapter: Supplication
Volume 2, Book 8, Number 491:
أبو عبيدة عن
جابر بن زيد عن ابن عباس أن النبي B كان إذا قام إلى الصلاة في جوف الليل قال: « اللهم
لك الحمد أنت نور السموات والأرض، ولك الحمد أنت قيوم السموات والأرض، ولك الحمد
أنت رب السموات والأرض ومن فيهن، أنت الحق وقولك الحق ووعدك الحق ولقاؤك حق والجنة
حق والنار حق والساعة حق اللهم لك أسلمت وبك آمنت وعليك توكلت وإليك زنبت وبك
خاصمت وإليك حاكمت فاغفر لي ما قدمت وأخرت وأسررت وأعلنت أنت إلهي لا إله إلا أنت ».
Abu Obeida reported from Jabir ibn Zaid that Ibn Abbas reported that whenever the
Prophet B offered the midnight prayer, he used to say:" O Allah! All the Praises are for
You; You are the Light of the Heavens and the Earth. And all the Praises are
for You; You are the Keeper of the Heavens and the Earth. And all the Praises
are for You; You are the Lord of the Heavens and the Earth and whatever is
therein. You are the Truth, and Your Words are the Truth, and Your promise is
the Truth, and meeting You is Truth, and the Paradise is Truth and the (Hell)
Fire is Truth, and the Hour is Truth. O Allah! I surrender to You, and believe
in You, and depend upon You, and repent to You, and with Your help I argue, and
to You I have turned for judgment. So forgive my past and future sins and those
sins which I did in secret or in public. You are my God; there is no god
(worthy of worship) but You."
