He does not know what he left behind upon him after him. So when he lies down, let him say, In Your name, my Lord, I have placed myself at my side, and by You I raise it up. If You retain my soul, have mercy on it. And if you send it, protect it with the same way you protect your righteous servants. So when he wakes up, let him say, “Praise be to God who has healed me in my body.” And he responded to my spirit and permitted me to mention him.” He said, and in the chapter on the authority of Jabir and Aisha.
