Jami at-Tirmidhi 3417 (Book 48, Hadith 48) #29066
Supplications of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the supplications that Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) used to say before going to sleep and after waking up.

Hudhaifah bin Al-Yaman may Allah be pleased with him narrated that when the Prophet wanted to sleep, he would say: "O Allah, in Your Name I die and I live (Allahumma bismika amutu wa aḥya)". And when he would wake, he would say: "Allah praise is due to Allah who revived my soul after causing its death and to Him is the resurrection (Al-ḥamdulillah, alladhi aḥya nafsi ba'da ma amataha wa ilaihin-nushur)".
حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مُجَالِدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ رِبْعِيٍّ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ بْنِ الْيَمَانِ، رضى الله عنهما أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَانَ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَنَامَ قَالَ ‏"‏ اللَّهُمَّ بِاسْمِكَ أَمُوتُ وَأَحْيَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَإِذَا اسْتَيْقَظَ قَالَ ‏"‏ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَحْيَا نَفْسِي بَعْدَ مَا أَمَاتَهَا وَإِلَيْهِ النُّشُورُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith narrates the supplications that Prophet Muhammad ﷺ used to say before going to sleep and after waking up. Before sleeping he would recite “O Allah, in Your Name I die and I live” and upon waking he would recite “Allah praise is due to Allah who revived my soul after causing its death and to Him is the resurrection”. These supplications are a reminder of our mortality as humans; we will all eventually die but it is only through Allah's mercy that we can be revived again on the Day of Judgment. It also serves as a reminder for us not to take life for granted; instead we should strive towards righteousness so that when our souls are taken away from us they will be returned back with ease on the Day of Judgment. Furthermore this hadith teaches us about gratitude; even though death may seem like an end it can also be seen as a new beginning if one has been righteous in their life. Therefore it is important for us all to thank God for His blessings no matter what situation we find ourselves in.
