Chapter 49 | Prayer Before Sleeping and After Waking Up

12ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ إِذَا قُمْتَ بِاللَّيْلِ مِنْ مَنَامِكَ فَقُلِ الْحَمْدُ لله الَّذِي رَدَّ عَلَيَّ رُوحِي لأحْمَدَهُ وَأَعْبُدَهُ فَإِذَا سَمِعْتَ صَوْتَ الدِّيكِ فَقُلْ سُبُّوحٌ قُدُّوسٌ رَبُّ الْمَلائِكَةِ وَالرُّوحِ سَبَقَتْ رَحْمَتُكَ غَضَبَكَ لا إِلَهَ إِلا أَنْتَ وَحْدَكَ عَمِلْتُ سُوءاً وَظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي فَاغْفِرْ لِي فَإِنَّهُ لا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلا أَنْتَ فَإِذَا قُمْتَ فَانْظُرْ فِي آفَاقِ السَّمَاءِ وَقُلِ اللهمَّ لا يُوَارِي مِنْكَ لَيْلٌ دَاجٍ وَلا سَمَاءٌ ذَاتُ أَبْرَاجٍ وَلا أَرْضٌ ذَاتُ مِهَادٍ وَلا ظُلُمَاتٌ بَعْضُهَا فَوْقَ بَعْضٍ وَلا بَحْرٌ لُجِّيٌّ تُدْلِجُ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ الْمُدْلِجِ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ تَعْلَمُ خَائِنَةَ الأعْيُنِ وَمَا تُخْفِي الصُّدُورُ غَارَتِ النُّجُومُ وَنَامَتِ الْعُيُونُ وَأَنْتَ الْحَيُّ الْقَيُّومُ لا تَأْخُذُكَ سِنَةٌ وَلا نَوْمٌ سُبْحَانَ رَبِّي رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ وَإِلَهِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ وَالْحَمْدُ لله رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ.

12. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from Hariz from Zurara from abu Ja’far who has said the following: “During the night if you wake up say, ‘All praise belongs to Allah, who has returned my spirit to me so I can thank Him and worship Him.’ When you hear the voice of a rooster then say, ‘O the Faultless, the Holy, Lord of the angels and the Spirit, Your mercy comes before Your anger and no one deserves to be worshipped except You alone. 1 have committed evil deeds and has wronged myself, please forgive me. No one can forgive sins except You.’ When you stand up look to the horizons and say, ‘O Lord, the dark night is not hidden from You nor is the skies with constellations or the well-stretched earth, or the darknesses one over the other, or the wavy seas or the traveler at night of Your creatures; You know the secret glances of the eyes and what the chests hide. The stars have disappeared, the eyes have gone to sleep and You are the Living the Guardian, slumber cannot overtake You nor sleep. My Lord is free of defects, the Lord of the worlds, and the Holy Being of the messengers; all praise belongs to Allah, Lord of the worlds.’”
