The Messenger of Allah ﷺ taught me some words that I say during the witr. (The version of Ibn Jawwas has: I say them in the supplication of the witr.) They were: "O Allah, guide me among those Thou hast guided, grant me security among those Thou hast granted security, take me into Thy charge among those Thou hast taken into Thy charge, bless me in what Thou hast given, guard me from the evil of what Thou hast decreed, for Thou dost decree, and nothing is decreed for Thee. He whom Thou befriendest is not humbled. Blessed and Exalted art Thou, our Lord."

الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ؓ عَلَّمَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَلِمَاتٍ أَقُولُهُنَّ فِي الْوِتْرِ قَالَ ابْنُ جَوَّاسٍ فِي قُنُوتِ الْوِتْرِ اللَّهُمَّ اهْدِنِي فِيمَنْ هَدَيْتَ وَعَافِنِي فِيمَنْ عَافَيْتَ وَتَوَلَّنِي فِيمَنْ تَوَلَّيْتَ وَبَارِكْ لِي فِيمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَقِنِي شَرَّ مَا قَضَيْتَ إِنَّكَ تَقْضِي وَلاَ يُقْضَى عَلَيْكَ وَإِنَّهُ لاَ يَذِلُّ مَنْ وَالَيْتَ وَلاَ يَعِزُّ مَنْ عَادَيْتَ تَبَارَكْتَ رَبَّنَا وَتَعَالَيْتَ

"Messenger of Allah taught me some phrases to say during Al-Witr (Allahummahdini fiman hadait, wa a'fini fiman afait, wa tawallani fiman tawallait, wa barik Li fima atait, wa qini sharra ma qadait, fa Innaka taqdi wa la yuqda Alaik, wa innahu la yadhillu man walait, tabarakta Rabbana wa ta'alait.) 'O Allah guide me among those You have guided, pardon me among those You have pardoned, befriend me among those You have befriended, bless me in what You have granted, and save me from the evil that You decreed. Indeed You decree, and none can pass decree, and none can pass decree upon You, indeed he is not humiliated whom You have befriended, blessed are You our Lord and Exalted.'"

"Al-Hasan said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ taught me some words to say in witr in Qunut: Allahumma ihdini fiman hadayta wa 'afini fiman afayta wa tawallani fiman tawallayta wa barik li fima a'tayta, wa qini sharra ma qadayta, fa innaka taqdi wa la yuqda 'alayk, wa innahu la yadhilluman walayta, tabarakta Rabbana wa at'alayt (O Allah, guide me among those whom You have guided, pardon me among those You have pardoned, turn to me in friendship among those on whom You have turned in friendship, and bless me in what You have bestowed, and save me from the evil of what You have decreed.

[AI] I asked Al-Hassan ibn Ali, "What do you remember from the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him?" He replied, "He carried me on his shoulder and I took a date from the charity dates and put it in my mouth. He said to me, 'Throw it away, as we are not allowed to eat from charity.' He used to make this supplication: 'O Allah, guide me among those whom You have guided, grant me well-being among those whom You have granted well-being, take me into Your care among those whom You have taken into Your care, bless for me what You have given, and protect me from the evil of what You have decreed. Surely, You decree and You are not decreed upon. Blessed are You and exalted.'"

[AI] Narrated Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him):

I said to Al-Hasan ibn Ali, "What do you remember from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ?" He said, "I remember that I took a date from the dates of charity and put it in my mouth. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took it out with his saliva and then put it back into the dates. A man said to him, 'Why don't you eat this date?' He replied, 'Verily, we do not eat charity.' He (the man) said, 'He used to teach us this supplication: O Allah, guide me among those You have guided, grant me well-being among those You have granted well-being, take charge of me among those You have taken charge of, bless for me in what You have given me, and protect me from the evil of what You have decreed. Indeed, the one whom You take as a guardian is never humiliated. And sometimes he used to say, 'You are blessed, our Lord, and exalted.'"

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took it out with his saliva and put it back with the dates. It was said: O Messenger of Allah, what made you pick up this date for this young child? He said: Indeed, we, the family of Muhammad, are not allowed to take charity. He said: And he used to say: Leave what makes you doubt for what does not make you doubt, for truthfulness brings tranquility and lying brings doubt. He said: And he used to teach us this supplication: O Allah, guide me among those whom You have guided, and heal me among those whom You have healed, and take care of me among those whom You have taken care of, and bless what You have given me, and protect me from the evil of what You have decreed. Indeed, You decree and no one can decree over You, and whoever You support is not humiliated. Shu`ba said: And I think he (Hasan) also said: Blessed are You, our Lord, and exalted."

[AI] Tell me something you have memorized from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that no one has told you about. He said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Leave what gives you doubt for what does not give you doubt.' He said, 'Goodness brings tranquility, while evil brings doubt.' The Prophet ﷺ was once given a piece of date as charity, so I took a date and threw it in my mouth, then he took it back from my saliva and put it back with the dates. It was said to him, 'O Messenger of Allah, why did you take back this date from this child?' He said, 'Indeed, we, the family of Muhammad, are not allowed to take charity.' I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ supplicating with this prayer, 'O Allah, guide us among those whom You have guided, and grant us well-being among those whom You have granted well-being, and take us as Your guardians among those whom You have taken as Your guardians, and bless us in what You have given us, and protect us from the evil that You have decreed, for You do decree and none can decree upon You. Indeed, he whom You have taken as a guardian will never be disgraced. Blessed and exalted are You.'"

عَلَّمَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ أَقُولَ فِي الْوِتْرِ «اللهُمَّ اهْدِنِي فِيمَنْ هَدَيْتَ وَعَافِنِي فِيمَنْ عَافَيْتَ وَتَوَلَّنِي فِيمَنْ تَوَلَّيْتَ وَبَارِكْ لِي فِيمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَقِنِي شَرَّ مَا قَضَيْتَ؛ إِنَّكَ تَقْضِي وَلَا يُقْضَى عَلَيْكَ إِنَّهُ لَا يَذِلُّ مَنْ وَالَيْتَ وَلَا يَعِزُّ مَنْ عَادَيْتَ تَبَارَكْتَ وَتَعَالَيْتَ»

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ taught me some words that I say during the witr. (The version of Ibn Jawwas has: I say them in the supplication of the witr.) They were: "O Allah, guide me among those Thou hast guided, grant me security among those Thou hast granted security, take me into Thy charge among those Thou hast taken into Thy charge, bless me in what Thou hast given, guard me from the evil of what Thou hast decreed, for Thou dost decree, and nothing is decreed for Thee. He whom Thou befriendest is not humbled. Blessed and Exalted art Thou, our Lord." (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1425)

قِيلَ لِلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ؓ أَيَّ شَيْءٍ حَفِظْتَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ مَا حَفِظْتُ مِنْهُ إِلَّا كَلِمَاتٍ أَقُولُهُنَّ فِي الْوِتْرِ «اللهُمَّ اهْدِنِي فِيمَنْ هَدَيْتَ وَعَافِنِي فِيمَنْ عَافَيْتَ وَتَوَلَّنِي فِيمَنْ تَوَلَّيْتَ وَبَارِكْ لِي فِيمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَقِنِي شَرَّ مَا قَضَيْتَ؛ إِنَّكَ تَقْضِي وَلَا يُقْضَى عَلَيْكَ تَبَارَكْتَ رَبَّنَا وَتَعَالَيْتَ»

Innaka taqdi wa la yuqda ‘alaik, innahu la yudhillu man walait.

سَمِعْتُ الْحَسَنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ ؓ يَقُولُ عَلَّمَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ أَقُولَ فِي الْوِتْرِ «اللهُمَّ اهْدِنِي فِيمَنْ هَدَيْتَ وَتَوَلَّنِي فِيمَنْ تَوَلَّيْتَ وَعَافِنِي فِيمَنْ عَافَيْتَ وَبَارِكْ لِي فِيمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَقِنِي شَرَّ مَا قَضَيْتَ؛ إِنَّكَ تَقْضِي وَلَا يُقْضَى عَلَيْكَ إِنَّهُ لَا يَذِلُّ مَنْ وَالَيْتَ وَلَا يَعِزُّ مَنْ عَادَيْتَ تَبَارَكْتَ وَتَعَالَيْتَ»

[AI] I said to Al-Hasan ibn Ali, "What was your opinion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ? And what did you understand from him?" He said, "I understood from him to leave what causes doubts in you for that which does not cause doubts in you, for evil is a doubt while good is tranquility. And I understood from him the five daily prayers and certain words that I should recite after completing them." He said, "Say: 'O Allah, guide me among those whom You have guided, pardon me among those whom You have pardoned, turn to me in friendship among those whom You have turned to, bless me in what You have given me, and protect me from the evil that You have decreed. Surely, You decree and no one can decree over You. Indeed, the one who is supported by You is never humiliated. Blessed are You, our Lord, and exalted are You.'" Buraid ibn Abi Maryam said, "Then I entered upon Muhammad ibn Ali in the marketplace and informed him of this narration from Abu Al-Huraira from Al-Hasan ibn Ali. He said, 'These are true words that he taught us to recite during the Qunut'."

قُلْتُ لِلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ؓ مِثْلُ مَنْ كُنْتَ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ وَمَا عَقَلْتَ عَنْهُ؟ قَالَ عَقَلْتُ عَنْهُ أَنِّي سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ دَعْ مَا يَرِيبُكَ إِلَى مَا لَا يَرِيبُكَ فَإِنَّ الشَّرَّ رِيبَةٌ وَالْخَيْرَ طُمَأْنِينَةٌ وَعَقَلْتُ عَنْهُ الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسَ وكَلِماتٍ أَقُولُهُنَّ عِنْدَ انْقِضائِهِنَّ قَالَ قُلِ اللهُمَّ اهْدِنِي فِيمَنَ هَدَيْتَ وَعَافِنِي فِيمَنْ عَافَيْتَ وَتَوَلَّنِي فِيمَنْ تَوَلَّيْتَ وَبَارِكْ لِي فِيمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَقِنِي شَرَّ مَا قَضَيْتَ؛ إِنَّكَ تَقْضِي وَلَا يُقْضَى عَلَيْكَ إِنَّهُ لَا يَذِلُّ مَنْ وَالَيْتَ تَبَارَكْتَ رَبَّنَا وَتَعَالَيْتَ قَالَ بُرَيْدُ بْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ فِي الشِّعْبِ فَحَدَّثْتُهُ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَوْرَاءِ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ؓ فَقَالَ صَدَقَ هُنَّ كَلِمَاتٌ عَلَّمَنَاهُنَّ أَنْ نَقُولَهُنَّ فِي الْقُنُوتِ

[AI] I asked Al-Hasan ibn Ali, "What were you like on the day that the Prophet ﷺ died? And what do you understand from him?" He replied, "A man came to him one day and asked him about something. The Prophet ﷺ said to him, 'Leave what doubts you and go towards what does not. For evil is doubt and goodness is tranquility.' And I understood from him that I passed by him one day and there was a container of dates for charity in front of him. I took a date and threw it in my mouth, then he grabbed my wrist and put his hand in my mouth and pulled it out with his saliva on it, then he threw it in the container. His companions said to him, 'If you had left it, the boy would have eaten it?' He said, 'Charity is not permissible for the family of Muhammad.' He also taught me words to say in my final supplication, 'O Allah, guide me among those whom You have guided, and take me under Your care among those whom You have taken under Your care, and bestow Your blessings upon me in what You have given me, and protect me from the evil that You have decreed, for surely You decree and none can decree over You. And none whom You have taken as an ally will be humiliated. Blessed and exalted are You.' "

قُلْتُ لِلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ؓ مِثْلَ مَا كُنْتَ يَوْمَ مَاتَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ؟ وَمَا تَعْقِلُ مِنْهُ؟ عَقَلْتُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَجُلًا جَاءَهُ يَوْمًا فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ شَيْءٍ فَقَالَ دَعْ مَا يَرِيبُكُ إِلَى مَا لَا يَرِيبُكُ؛ فَإِنَّ الشَّرَّ رِيبَةٌ وَإِنَّ الْخَيْرَ طُمَأْنِينَةٌ وَعَقَلْتُ عَنْهُ أَنِّي مَرَرْتُ بِهِ يَوْمًا وَبَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فِي جُرْنٍ مِنْ جِرَانِ تَمْرِ الصَّدَقَةِ فَأَخَذْتُ تَمْرَةً فَطَرَحْتُها فِي فِيَّ فَأَخَذَ بِقَفَايَ ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ فِي فِيَّ فَانْتَزَعَهَا بِلُعَابِهَا ثُمَّ طَرَحَهَا فِي الْجُرْنِ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَصْحَابُهُ لَوْ تَرَكْتَ الْغُلَامَ فَأَكَلَهَا؟ فَقَالَ «إِنَّ الصَّدَقَةَ لَا تَحِلُّ لِآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ» قَالَ وَعَلَّمَنِي كَلِمَاتٍ أَدْعُو بِهِنَّ فِي آخِرِ الْقُنُوتِ «اللهُمَّ اهْدِنِي فِيمَنْ هَدَيْتَ وَتَوَلَّنِي فِيمَنْ تَوَلَّيْتَ وَعَافِنِي فِيمَنْ عَافَيْتَ وَبَارِكْ لِي فِيمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَقِنِي شَرَّ مَا قَضَيْتَ؛ إِنَّكَ تَقْضِي وَلَا يُقْضَى عَلَيْكَ وَإِنَّهُ لَا يَذِلُّ مَنْ وَالَيْتَ تَبَارَكْتَ وَتَعَالَيْتَ»

“My grandfather, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, taught me some words to say in Qunut of Witr: Allahumma ‘afini fiman ‘afait, wa tawallani fiman tawallait, wahdini fiman hadait, wa qini sharra ma qadait, wa barik li fima a’tait. Innaka taqdi wa la yuqda ‘alaik, innahu la yudhillu man walait.

For verily You decree and none can decree over You. He whom You support can never be humiliated. Glory is to You, our Lord, You are Blessed and Exalted).” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1178)

[AI] About your father Muhammad ﷺ? He taught me some words to say in Witr. I asked, "What are they?" He said, "O Allah, guide me among those whom You have guided, pardon me among those whom You have pardoned, turn to me in friendship among those on whom You have turned in friendship, and bless me in what You have bestowed, and protect me from the evil of what You have decreed. Indeed, You decree and none can decree over You." I said to myself, "Did you remember anything else from him?" He said, "I walked with him in the alley of charity and I took a date and put it in my mouth. He put his hand in my mouth and took it out and said, 'O my son, don't you know that we, the people of the Prophet's house, do not eat charity?'"

عَنْ أَبِيكَ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ؟ فَقَالَ عَلَّمَنِي كَلِمَاتٍ أَقُولُهُنَّ فِي الْوِتْرِ قُلْتُ مَا هِيَ؟ قَالَ «اللهُمَّ اهْدِنِي فِيمَنْ هَدَيْتَ وَعَافِنِي فِيمَنْ عَافَيْتَ وَتَوَلَّنِي فِيمَنْ تَوَلَّيْتَ وَبَارِكْ لِي فِيمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَقِنِي شَرَّ مَا قَضَيْتَ؛ إِنَّكَ تَقْضِي وَلَا يُقْضَى عَلَيْكَ» قُلْتُ بِنَفْسِي مَا حَفِظْتَ عَنْهُ غَيْرَ هَذَا؟ قَالَ كُنْتُ أَمْشِي مَعَهُ فِي حَائِطِ الصَّدَقَةِ فَأَخَذْتُ تَمْرَةً فَأَدْخَلْتُهَا فِي فِيَّ فَأَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ حَتَّى أَخْرَجَهَا وَقَالَ «أَيْ بُنَيَّ أَمَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَّا أَهْلُ بَيْتٍ لَا تَحِلُّ لَنَا الصَّدَقَةُ؟»

[AI] I asked Hassan ibn Ali, "What supplication did you learn from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?" He said, "He taught me these words: 'O Allah, guide me among those whom You have guided, grant me well-being among those whom You have granted well-being, take me into Your care among those whom You have taken into Your care, bless for me what You have given me, and protect me from the evil that You have decreed. Indeed, You decree and none can decree upon You. I see that one who seeks Your guidance will never be humiliated, O our Lord, blessed and exalted are You.'" I mentioned this to Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyah, and he said, "It is the supplication that my father used to make during the Qunut of the Fajr prayer." Sheikh Buraid quotes, "I mentioned this to Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyah."

سَأَلْتُ الْحَسَنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ مَا عَلِقْتَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ فَقَالَ عَلَّمَنِي دَعَوَاتٍ أَقُولُهُنَّ اللهُمَّ اهْدِنِي فِيمَنْ هَدَيْتَ وَعَافِنِي فِيمَنْ عَافَيْتَ وَتَوَلَّنِي فِيمَنْ تَوَلَّيْتَ وَبَارِكْ لِي فِيمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَقِنِي شَرَّ مَا قَضَيْتَ إِنَّكَ تَقْضِي وَلَا يُقْضَى عَلَيْكَ أُرَاهُ قَالَ إِنَّهُ لَا يَذِلُّ مَنْ وَالَيْتَ تَبَارَكْتَ رَبَّنَا وَتَعَالَيْتَ قَالَ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِمُحَمَّدِ ابْنِ الْحَنَفِيَّةِ فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ الدُّعَاءُ الَّذِي كَانَ أَبِي يَدْعُو بِهِ فِي صَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ فِي قُنُوتِهِ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ بُرَيْدٌ يَقُولُ ذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِمُحَمَّدِ ابْنِ الْحَنَفِيَّةِ

"Al-Hasan said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ taught me some words to say in witr in Qunut: Allahumma ihdini fiman hadayta wa 'afini fiman afayta wa tawallani fiman tawallayta wa barik li fima a'tayta, wa qini sharra ma qadayta, fa innaka taqdi wa la yuqda 'alayk, wa innahu la yadhilluman walayta, tabarakta Rabbana wa at'alayt (O Allah, guide me among those whom You have guided, pardon me among those You have pardoned, turn to me in friendship among those on whom You have turned in friendship, and bless me in what You have bestowed, and save me from the evil of what You have decreed. For verily You decree and none can influence You; and he is not humiliated whom You have befriended. Blessed are You, O Lord, and Exalted.)'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1745)

أَخْبَرَهُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ وَمُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ هُوَ ابْنُ الْحَنَفِيَّةِ بِالْخَيْفِ يَقُولَانِ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَقْنُتُ فِي صَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ وَفِي وِتْرِ اللَّيْلِ بِهَؤُلَاءِ الْكَلِمَاتِ اللهُمَّ اهْدِنِي فِيمَنْ هَدَيْتَ وَعَافِنِي فِيمَنْ عَافَيْتَ وَتَوَلَّنِي فِيمَنْ تَوَلَّيْتَ وَبَارِكْ لِي فِيمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَقِنِي شَرَّ مَا قَضَيْتَ إِنَّكَ تَقْضِي وَلَا يُقْضَى عَلَيْكَ إِنَّهُ لَا يَذِلُّ مَنْ وَالَيْتَ تَبَارَكْتَ رَبَّنَا وَتَعَالَيْتَ

[AI] Al-Hasan ibn Ali said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ taught me some words to say during Witr prayers. Ibn Jawwas said, 'In the Qunut of Witr, say: O Allah! Guide me among those whom You have guided, pardon me among those whom You have pardoned, take care of me among those whom You have taken care of, bless me in what You have given, and protect me from the evil that You have decreed. Surely, You decree and none can decree over You. Verily, he whom You take as an ally is never disgraced. Blessed are You, O our Lord, and Exalted.' Ali ibn Ahmad ibn Abdan informed us, Ahmed ibn Ubayd Al-Saffar informed us, Uthman ibn Umar al-Dabbi informed us, Amr ibn Marzooq informed us, from Zuhayr, from Abu Ishaq, from Yazid ibn Abi Maryam, from Abu al-Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ taught me to say during Witr prayers, 'O Allah! Guide me among those whom You have guided.' He mentioned the Hadith, and at the end he said, 'Say it in Qunut during Witr prayers.'"

قَالَ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ؓ عَلَّمَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ كَلِمَاتٍ أَقُولُهُنَّ فِي الْوِتْرِ قَالَ ابْنُ جَوَّاسٍ فِي قُنُوتِ الْوِتْرِ اللهُمَّ اهْدِنِي فِيمَنْ هَدَيْتَ وَعَافِنِي فِيمَنْ عَافَيْتَ وَتَوَلَّنِي فِيمَنْ تَوَلَّيْتَ وَبَارِكْ لِي فِيمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَقِنِي شَرَّ مَا قَضَيْتَ إِنَّكَ تَقْضِي وَلَا يُقْضَى عَلَيْكَ وَإِنَّهُ لَا يَذِلُّ مَنْ وَالَيْتَ تَبَارَكْتَ رَبَّنَا وَتَعَالَيْتَ 4628 وَأنبأ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الصَّفَّارُ ثنا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ الضَّبِّيُّ ثنا عَمْرٌو يَعْنِي ابْنَ مَرْزُوقٍ ثنا زُهَيْرٌ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَوْرَاءِ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ عَلَّمَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ اللهُمَّ اهْدِنِي فِيمَنْ هَدَيتَ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَفِي آخِرِهِ تَقُولُهَا فِي الْقُنُوتِ فِي الْوِتْرِ

[AI] Teach me, O Messenger of Allah, what to say in my Witr prayer when I raise my head and only Sujood remains (to be performed). O Allah, guide me among those whom You have guided, make me well among those whom You have made well, take care of me among those whom You have taken care of, bless me in what You have given me, and protect me from the evil that You have decreed. Indeed, You decree and none can decree upon You. No one who You have befriended will be humiliated, and no one who You have opposed will be honored. Blessed are You, our Lord, and Exalted are You. This wording is specific to Abu Bakr ibn Shaybah al-Hazami, and it has been narrated in the Qunut of the Fajr prayer after the Ruku'. It is what is recommended to rely upon, and the Qunut of Witr prayer is based on it by analogy.
