Chapter 1: When waking up
أذكار الاستيقاظ من النوم
Lā 'ilāha 'illallāhu waḥdahu la sharīka lahu,
lahul-mulku wa lahul-ḥamdu,
wa huwa 'alā kulli shay'in qadīr
Subḥānallāhi, walḥamdu lillāhi,
wa lā 'ilāha 'illallāhu, wallāhu 'akbar,
wa lā ḥaula wa lā quwwata 'illā billāhil-`aliyyil-`aẓīm,
rabbighfir lī.
There is none worthy of worship but Allah alone, Who has no partner,
His is the dominion and to Him belongs all praise,
and He is able to do all things.
Glory is to Allah. Praise is to Allah.
There is none worthy of worship but Allah. Allah is the Most Great.
There is no might and no power except by Allah's leave, the Exalted, the Mighty.
My Lord, forgive me.

Whoever says this will be forgiven, and if he supplicates Allah, his prayer
will be answered; if he performs ablution and prays, his prayer will be
accepted. Al-Bukhari, cf. Al-Asqalani, Fathul-Bari 3/39, among others. The
wording here is from Ibn Majah 2/335.

Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and the earth and the alternation of the day and night there are signs for people of reason.
˹They are˺ those who remember Allah while standing, sitting, and lying on their sides, and reflect on the creation of the heavens and the earth ˹and pray˺, “Our Lord! You have not created ˹all of˺ this without purpose. Glory be to You! Protect us from the torment of the Fire.
Our Lord! Indeed, those You commit to the Fire will be ˹completely˺ disgraced! And the wrongdoers will have no helpers.
Our Lord! We have heard the caller to ˹true˺ belief, ˹proclaiming,˺ ‘Believe in your Lord ˹alone˺,’ so we believed. Our Lord! Forgive our sins, absolve us of our misdeeds, and allow us ˹each˺ to die as one of the virtuous.
Our Lord! Grant us what You have promised us through Your messengers and do not put us to shame on Judgment Day—for certainly You never fail in Your promise.”
So their Lord responded to them “I will never deny any of you—male or female—the reward of your deeds. Both are equal in reward. Those who migrated or were expelled from their homes, and were persecuted for My sake and fought and ˹some˺ were martyred—I will certainly forgive their sins and admit them into Gardens under which rivers flow, as a reward from Allah. And with Allah is the finest reward!”
Do not be deceived by the prosperity of the disbelievers throughout the land.
It is only a brief enjoyment. Then Hell will be their home—what an evil place to rest!
But those who are mindful of their Lord will be in Gardens under which rivers flow, to stay there forever—as an accommodation from Allah. And what is with Allah is best for the virtuous.
Indeed, there are some among the People of the Book who truly believe in Allah and what has been revealed to you ˹believers˺ and what was revealed to them. They humble themselves before Allah—never trading Allah’s revelations for a fleeting gain. Their reward is with their Lord. Surely Allah is swift in reckoning.
O believers! Patiently endure, persevere, stand on guard, and be mindful of Allah, so you may be successful.

Reference
Muslim 4/2086, the meaning of sami`a sāmi`un (who listens has heard) is
that 'a witness has witnessed our praise of Allah due to His blessings and
favor upon us.' It could also be read samma`a sāmi`un, in which case it
means 'one who has heard this statement of mine will convey it to another
and he will say it as well.' This is due to the attention given to the
Thikr (remembrance of Allah) and supplications made during the early
morning hours. The meaning of his saying 'Our Lord, be with us and bestow
Your favor upon us' is: 'Our Lord, protect us and guard us. Bless us with
Your numerous bounties, and avert from us every evil.' See An-Nawawi, Sharh
Sahih Muslim 17/39.

وَقَالَ صلى الله عليه وسلم: يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ قَيْسٍ أَلاَ أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى كَنْزٍ مِنْ كُنُوزِ الْجَنَّةِ؟ فَقُلْتُ: بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: قُلْ (لاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاَّ بِاللَّهِ).
A desert Arab came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and said, "Teach me a word
that I can say. " The Prophet (ﷺ) told him to say
Lā ilāha illallāh
waḥdahu lā sharīka lah,
Allāhu Akbaru kabīra,
walḥamdu lillāhi kathīra,
Subḥānallāhi Rabbil-`ālamīn,
Lā ḥawla wa lā quwwata illā billāhi ‘l-`Azīzil-Hakīm.
He said, "That is for my Lord, but what about me?" The Prophet (ﷺ) told
him to say:
Allāhummaghfir lī, warḥamnī, waḥdinī warzuqnī.
A desert Arab came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and said, "Teach me a word that I can say. " The Prophet (ﷺ) told him to say:
There is none worthy of worship but Allah, Who has no partner,
Allah is the Great, the Most Great,
and praise is to Allah in abundance,
glory is to Allah, Lord of the worlds.
There is no power and no might but by Allah the Mighty, the Wise.
He said, "That is for my Lord, but what about me?" The Prophet (ﷺ) told him to say:
O Allah forgive me, and have mercy on me and guide me, and provide for me.

Muslim 4/2072, Abu Dawud reports the same Hadith with the addition: and
when the Arab left, the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "He has filled his hands with
goodness." 1/220.
جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ: عَلِّمْنِي كَلاماً أَقُولُهُ: قَالَ: قُلْ (لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لاَ شَرِيكَ لَهُ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ كَبِيراً، وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ كَثِيراً، سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ رَبِّ العَالَمِينَ، لاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاَّ بِاللَّهِ الْعَزِيزِ الْحَكِيمِ). قَالَ: فَهَؤُلاَءِ لِرَبِّي، فَمَا لِي؟ قَالَ: قُلْ (اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي، وَارْحَمْنِي، وَاهْدِنِي، وَارْزُقْنِي).

Lā ilāha illallāh.
The most excellent invocation is:
Praise is for Allah.
and the most excellent words of remembrance are:
There is none worthy of worship but Allah.

إِنَّ أَفْضَلَ الدُّعَاءِ (الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ)، وَأَفْضَلَ الذِّكْرِ (لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ)
Abdullah bin 'Amr (May Allah be pleased with him) said "I saw the Prophet (ﷺ) counting the
glorification of his Lord on his right hand."
