O Allah, I submit myself to You
Sleep Adhkar
O Allah, I submit myself to You
اللَّهُمَّ أَسْلَمْتُ نَفْسِي إِلَيْكَ، وَفَوَّضْتُ أَمْرِي إِلَيْكَ، وَوَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِي إِلَيْكَ، وَأَلْجَأْتُ ظَهْرِي إِلَيْكَ، رَغْبَةً وَرَهْبَةً إِلَيْكَ، لَا مَلْجَأَ وَلَا مَنْجَا مِنْكَ إِلَّا إِلَيْكَ، آمَنْتُ بِكِتَابِكَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلْتَ، وَبِنَبِيِّكَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلْتَ
Allahumma aslamtu nafsi ilayk, wa fawwadtu amri ilayk, wa wajjahtu wajhi ilayk, wa alja'tu zahri ilayk, raghbatan wa rahbatan ilayk, la malja'a wa la manja minka illa ilayk, amantu bi-kitabika-lladhi anzalt, wa bi-nabiyyika-lladhi arsalt.
O Allah, I submit myself to You, entrust my affair to You, turn my face to You, and rely upon You — in hope of You and fear of You. There is no refuge nor escape from You except to You. I believe in Your Book which You revealed and in Your Prophet whom You sent.
Plain text (no diacritics)
اللهم أسلمت نفسي إليك، وفوضت أمري إليك، ووجهت وجهي إليك، وألجأت ظهري إليك، رغبة ورهبة إليك، لا ملجأ ولا منجا منك إلا إليك، آمنت بكتابك الذي أنزلت، وبنبيك الذي أرسلت
Virtue: Make it the last thing you say; if you die that night, you die upon the natural way (fitrah).
When is it said?
The adhkar of sleep are said on taking to your bed, after you have lain down and before sleep overtakes you. Someone who says them and then wakes in the night does not repeat them.
