Allāhumma bismika amūtu wa aḥyā.

Abū Dhar (raḍiy Allāhu ‘anhu) narrates that whenever the Prophet ﷺ lay on his bed, he used to say: [the above], and when he woke up he would say: ‘All praise is for Allah Who gave us life after having taken it from us and unto Him is the resurrection.’ (Bukhārī 6325)
ابوذر رضی اللہ عنہ روایت کرتے ہیں کہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم جب اپنے بستر پر لیٹتے تو کہتے: [اوپر والا]، اور جب بیدار ہوتے تو کہتے: تمام تعریفیں اللہ کے لیے ہیں جس نے ہم سے چھین کر ہمیں زندگی بخشی اور اسی کی طرف اٹھنا ہے۔‘‘ (بخاری 632)
