Abu Bakr's supplication for a good ending

suyuti:1-690bʿĀʾishah

[AI] Abu Bakr had a supplication that he would make when he entered the morning and the evening. He would say: O Allah ﷻ, make the best of my life its end, the best of my deeds their conclusions, and the best of my days the day I meet You. It was said: O Abu Bakr, why do you make this supplication when you are the companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the second of the two in the cave? He said: A servant may act for a time in his life with the deeds of the people of Paradise, then his life is sealed for him with the deeds of the people of the Fire; and a servant may act with the deeds of the people of the Fire for a time, then his life is sealed for him with the deeds of the people of Paradise.

[AI] Hashish

السيوطي:١-٦٩٠بعن عائشة قالت:

كان لأبى بكر دعاء يدعو به إذا أصبح وأمسى يقول: الَّلهُمَّ اجْعَلْ خَيْرَ عُمُرِى آخِرَهُ، وخَيْرَ عَمَلِى خَوَاتِمَهُ، وخيْرَ أَيَّامِى يَوْمَ أَلْقَاكَ، فَقيلَ: يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ: لِمَ تَدْعُو بِهَذَا الدُّعاءِ وَأَنْتَ صَاحِبُ رَسولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَثَانِى اثْنَيْنِ فِى الْغَارَ؟ قَال: إِنَّ العَبْدَ لَيَعْمَلُ حِينًا مِنْ دَهْرِهِ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ الجَنَّةِ فَيُخْتَمُ لَهُ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ النَّارِ، وَإِنَّ الْعَبْدَ ليَعْمَلُ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ النَّارِ حِينًا فَيُخْتَمُ لَهُ بِعَمَل أَهْلِ الجَنَّةِ.
