nasai-kubra:10546Qutaybah b. Saʿīd > Sufyān > Abū Isḥāq > al-Barāʾ

[Machine] It was narrated that when the Prophet ﷺ would go to bed, he would say, "O Allah, I have submitted myself to You, and I have turned my face towards You, and I have entrusted my affairs to You, and I have sought refuge in You for my back. I believe in Your Book which You revealed, and in Your Messenger whom You sent." Layth (narrator) contradicted them and told us that Ziyad ibn Yahya informed us that Al-Mu'tamir ibn Sulayman said, "I heard Layth mentioning from Abu Ishaq from Hilal ibn Yasaf from Al-Bara' ibn 'Azib who said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'When you go to bed' similar to it. Al-Mu'tamir said, "I have also narrated this hadith from Al-Hajjaj and others through Abu Ishaq."  

الكبرى للنسائي:١٠٥٤٦أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا أَوَى إِلَى فِرَاشِهِ قَالَ «اللهُمَّ أَسْلَمْتُ نَفْسِي إِلَيْكَ وَوَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِي إِلَيْكَ وَفَوَّضْتُ أَمْرِي إِلَيْكَ وَأَلْجَأْتُ ظَهْرِي إِلَيْكَ آمَنْتُ بِكِتَابِكَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلْتَ وَبِرَسُولِكَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلْتَ» خَالَفَهُمْ لَيْثٌ 10547 أَخْبَرَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ لَيْثًا يَذْكُرُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ يَسَافٍ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِذَا أَوَيْتَ إِلَى فِرَاشِكَ» نَحْوَهُ قَالَ مُعْتَمِرٌ وَحَدَّثَنِي بِهِ الْحَجَّاجُ وَغَيْرُهُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ

bukhari:6313Saʿīd b. al-Rabīʿ And Muḥammad b. ʿArʿarah > Shuʿbah > Abū Isḥāq > al-Barāʾ b. ʿĀzib

That the Prophet ﷺ advised a man, saying, "If you intend to lie down (i.e. go to bed), say, 'Allahumma aslamtu nafsi ilaika wa fauwadtu ʿAmri ilaika, wa wajjahtu wajhi ilaika wa alja'tu zahri ilaika, reghbatan wa rahbatan ilaika. La malja'a wa la manja minka illa ilaika. Amantu bikitabikal-ladhi anzalta; wa nabiyyikalladhi arsalta.' And if you should die then (after reciting this before going to bed) you will die on the religion of Islam"  

البخاري:٦٣١٣حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَرْعَرَةَ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ سَمِعَ الْبَرَاءَ بْنَ عَازِبٍ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَمَرَ رَجُلاً وَحَدَّثَنَا آدَمُ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَوْصَى رَجُلاً فَقَالَ إِذَا أَرَدْتَ مَضْجَعَكَ فَقُلِ اللَّهُمَّ أَسْلَمْتُ نَفْسِي إِلَيْكَ وَفَوَّضْتُ أَمْرِي إِلَيْكَ وَوَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِي إِلَيْكَ وَأَلْجَأْتُ ظَهْرِي إِلَيْكَ رَغْبَةً وَرَهْبَةً إِلَيْكَ لاَ مَلْجَأَ وَلاَ مَنْجَا مِنْكَ إِلاَّ إِلَيْكَ آمَنْتُ بِكِتَابِكَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلْتَ وَبِنَبِيِّكَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلْتَ فَإِنْ مُتَّ مُتَّ عَلَى الْفِطْرَةِ
