Sunan Abi Dawud 5054 (Book 43, Hadith 282) #25345
Prophet Muhammad's Bedtime Prayer

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the prayer that Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said before going to bed at night.

Narrated AbulAzhar al-Anmari: When the Messenger of Allah went to his bed at night, he would say: in the name of Allah, I have laid down my side for Allah. O Allah! forgive me my sin, drive away my devil, free me from my responsibility, and place me in the highest assembly. Abu Dawud said: Abu Hammam al-Ahwazi transmitted it from Thawr. He mentioned Abu Zuhair al-Anmari (instead of Abu al-Azhar).
حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُسَافِرٍ التِّنِّيسِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَسَّانَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَمْزَةَ، عَنْ ثَوْرٍ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ مَعْدَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي الأَزْهَرِ الأَنْمَارِيِّ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَانَ إِذَا أَخَذَ مَضْجَعَهُ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ قَالَ ‏ "‏ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَضَعْتُ جَنْبِي اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي ذَنْبِي وَأَخْسِئْ شَيْطَانِي وَفُكَّ رِهَانِي وَاجْعَلْنِي فِي النَّدِيِّ الأَعْلَى ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ رَوَاهُ أَبُو هَمَّامٍ الأَهْوَازِيُّ عَنْ ثَوْرٍ قَالَ أَبُو زُهَيْرٍ الأَنْمَارِيُّ
