Sahih Muslim 769a (Book 6, Hadith 236) #8961
Praising Allah and Seeking Forgiveness

SUMMARY: The hadith is about praising Allah and submitting to Him, affirming faith in Him, trusting Him, and seeking His forgiveness for all sins.

Ibn 'Abbas reported that when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ got up during the night to pray, he used to say: O Allah, to Thee be the praise Thou art the light of the heavens and the earth. To Thee be the praise; Thou art the Supporter of the heavens and the earth. To Thee be the praise; Thou art the Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is therein. Thou art the Truth; Thy promise is True, the meeting with Thee is True. Paradise is true, Hell is true, the Hour is true. O Allah, I submit to Thee; affirm my faith in Thee; repose my trust in Thee, and I return to Thee for repentance; by Thy help I have disputed; and to Thee I have come for decision, so forgive me my earlier and later sins, the sins that I committed in secret and openly. Thou art my God. There is no god but Thee.
