[Machine] Indeed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whoever says, O Allah, Creator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, I bear witness in this worldly life that there is no deity worthy of worship except You alone, without any partners, and that Muhammad is Your servant and Messenger. Verily, if You entrust me to myself, You will bring me closer to evil and distance me from good. And I have no trust except in Your mercy, so make for me a covenant with You that You fulfill for me on the Day of Resurrection. Verily, You do not fail in fulfilling promises. Then Allah will say to His angels on the Day of Resurrection: 'Indeed, My servant has made a covenant with Me, so fulfill it for him.' Then Allah will admit him into Paradise."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ قَالَ اللهُمَّ فَاطِرَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ عَالِمَ الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ إِنِّي أَعْهَدُ إِلَيْكَ فِي هَذِهِ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا أَنِّي أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ وَحْدَكَ لَا شَرِيكَ لَكَ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُكَ وَرَسُولُكَ فَإِنَّكَ إِنْ تَكِلْنِي إِلَى نَفْسِي تُقَرِّبْنِي مِنَ الشَّرِّ وَتُبَاعِدْنِي مِنَ الْخَيْرِ وَإِنِّي لَا أَثِقُ إِلَّا بِرَحْمَتِكَ فَاجْعَلْ لِي عِنْدَكَ عَهْدًا تُوَفِّينِيهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ إِنَّكَ لَا تُخْلِفُ الْمِيعَادَ إِلَّا قَالَ اللهُ لِمَلَائِكَتِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ إِنَّ عَبْدِي قَدْ عَهِدَ إِلَيَّ عَهْدًا فَأَوْفُوهُ إِيَّاهُ فَيُدْخِلُهُ اللهُ الْجَنَّةَ  

[Machine] He read, "Except for those who take with their Lord a covenant" [Maryam 87]. So he said, "Take with the Merciful a covenant, for indeed Allah says on the Day of Resurrection, 'Whoever has a covenant with me, let him stand up.' So we said to him, 'O Abu Abdur Rahman, teach us.' He said, 'Say: O Allah, Creator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, indeed I make a covenant with You in this worldly life that I bear witness that there is no deity except You alone, with no partner, and that Muhammad is Your servant and Messenger. Indeed, if You entrust me to myself, You will bring me near to evil and distance me from good. And indeed, I rely not upon anyone but Your mercy. So make it for me a covenant with You and fulfill it to me on the Day of Resurrection, for surely You do not fail in fulfilling the promise.'"  

أَنَّهُ قَرَأَ {إِلَّا مَنِ اتَّخَذَ عِنْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ عَهْدًا} [مريم 87] فَقَالَ اتَّخَذُوا عِنْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ عَهْدًا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ يَقُولُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَنْ كَانَ لَهُ عِنْدِي عَهْدٌ فَلْيَقُمْ قَالَ فَقُلْنَا فَعَلِّمْنَا يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ قُولُوا اللَّهُمَّ فَاطِرَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ عَالِمَ الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ إِنِّي أَعْهَدُ إِلَيْكَ فِي هَذِهِ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا بِأَنِّي أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ وَحْدَكَ لَا شَرِيكَ لَكَ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُكَ وَرَسُولُكَ فَإِنَّكَ إِنْ تَكِلْنِي إِلَى نَفْسِي تُقَرِّبْنِي مِنَ الشَّرِّ وَتُبَاعِدْنِي مِنَ الْخَيْرِ وَإِنِّي لَا أَثِقُ إِلَّا بِرَحْمَتِكَ فَاجْعَلْهُ لِي عِنْدَكَ عَهْدًا تُوَفِّيهِ إِلَيَّ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ إِنَّكَ لَا تُخْلِفُ الْمِيعَادَ  

[Machine] Abdullah read, "{Except for those who take a covenant with the Merciful}." He said, Allah says on the Day of Resurrection, "Whoever has a covenant with Me, let him arise." They said, "O Abu Abdullah, teach us." He said, "Say, 'O Allah, Creator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, I make a covenant with You in this worldly life that if You entrust me to myself, You will bring me closer to evil and distance me from good. And I have no trust except in Your mercy, so make it a covenant for me with You that You fulfill it for me on the Day of Resurrection, for You do not fail in Your promise.'" Zakariya ibn Yahya narrated from Al-Qasim, "Fearful, seeking refuge, seeking forgiveness, desiring to be close to You."  

قَرَأَ عَبْدُ اللهِ {إِلَّا مَنِ اتَّخَذَ عِنْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ عَهْدًا} قَالَ يَقُولُ اللهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَنْ كَانَ لَهُ عِنْدِي عَهْدٌ فَلْيَقُمْ قَالُوا يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ فَعَلِّمْنَا قَالَ قُولُوا اللهُمَّ فَاطِرَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ عَالِمَ الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ إِنِّي أعْهَدُ إِلَيْكَ فِي هَذِهِ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا أَنَّكَ إِنْ تَكِلْنِي إِلَى نَفْسِي تُقَرِّبْنِي مِنَ الشَّرِّ وَتُبَاعِدْنِي مِنَ الْخَيْرِ وَإِنِّي لَا أَثِقُ إِلَّا بِرَحْمَتِكَ فَاجْعَلْهُ لِي عِنْدَكَ عَهْدًا تُؤَدِّيهِ إِلَيَّ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ إِنَّكَ لَا تُخْلِفُ الْمِيعَادَ قَالَ وَزَادَ فِيهَا زَكَرِيَّا أَبُو يَحْيَى عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ «خَائِفًا مُسْتَجِيرًا مُسْتَغْفِرًا رَاغِبًا إِلَيْكَ»  

"مَنْ قَال: اللَّهُمَّ فَاطِرَ السَّمَوَاتِ والأرْضِ عالِمَ الْغَيبِ والشَّهَادَةِ، إِنِّي أَعْهَدُ إِلَيكَ في هَذِه الحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا أنِّي أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لا إِلَهَ إِلا أَنْتَ وَحدَكَ لا شَرِيكَ لَكَ، وأَنَّ مُحَمدا عَبْدُكَ وَرَسولُكَ، فَإِنَّكَ إِنْ تَكِلنِي إِلَى نَفْسِي تُقَرِّبْنِي إِلَى الشَّرِ، وتُبَاعِدْنِي من الخَيرِ، وَإنِّي لا أَثِقُ إِلا بِرَحْمَتِكَ فَاجْعَل لي عِنْدَكَ عَهْدًا تُوفِنِيه يومَ القِيَامَةِ، إِنَّكَ لا تُخْلِفُ الميعَادَ، إِلا قَال الله (لملائِكَتِهِ يومَ القيامَةِ إِنَّ عبدي قد عهد إِليَّ عهدًا فأَوفُوه إِياه فيدخله الجنة) ".
