Mishkat al-Masabih — Hadith #48424

On the authority of Ibn Abbas, he said: Whenever the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, got up at night, he would recite the Hajj prayer and say: “O God, praise be to You, You are the ruler of the heavens.” And the earth and whoever is in them, and praise be to You, You are the light of the heavens and the earth and whoever is in them, and praise be to You, You are the King of the heavens. And the earth and whoever is in it. Praise be to You. You are the truth, and your promise is true, and meeting you is true, and your words are true, and Paradise is true, and Hell is true, and the prophets True, and Muhammad is true, and the Hour is true. Oh God, to You I have submitted, and in You I have believed, and in You I have put my trust, and to You I turn, and with You I have contended, and to You I have been judged, so forgive me for what I have put forward and what I have delayed, and what I have concealed and what I have declared, and what You know better than me. You are the one who gives precedence and you are the one who delays. There is no god. Except You, and there is no god but You.”
