50. When Going to Bed
Hudhaifa ؓ reports that when the Holy Prophetﷺ went
to bed at night he would put his (right) hand under his
(right) cheek and recite the following:
ِب ّم ُ ه ّٰ ّللَا
ّٰي ْ حَا َ و ُ ت ْ و ُ مَا َك ِ ِْا
allaahumma bismika amutu wa ahyaa
“Oh Allah, With Your name do I die and live.”(Al-
Bukhari)
51. When Unable To Sleep
When you are unable to sleep then recite:
ْو ـي ُُعْلا ِ تَأَد هو َ مُ وْ جْنلا ُ ِ تراَغ َ ّمهُ ّٰ ّلا مٌ وْ ْـيَـق يْ ح َ تْنَا َ و َ ُن
ّللَا
مُ وْ ْـيَـقا َي يْ حا َ َي مٌ وَـن ْ َلاّو ٌةَن ِ مـ ! ْ س َكُذ خْأَت ُ ِنَا و َ ى

Oh Allah! Stars have sunk and eyes have turned
tranquil and You are eternally Alive, the Self-
Sustaining Sustainer of all, To You comes no doze or
sleep, The Alive, The Self-Sustaining! Make my night
peaceful and bless my eyes with sleep. (Ibn-ul-Sunni)
