قَيْلَةُ بِنْتُ مَخْرَمَةَ الْعَنْبَرِيَّةُ

[Machine] His grandmothers, Safiyyah and Duhaybah, told him that Qaylah bint Makhrimah used to say when she went to bed after darkness fell: "In the name of Allah, I place my side unto my Lord and seek His forgiveness for my sins." She would repeat this several times and then say: "I seek refuge with Allah and His complete words, which no righteous or wicked person can surpass, from the evil of what descends from the sky and ascends to it, the evil that descends upon the earth and the evil that emerges from it, the evil of the trials of the day and the evil of the visitors of the night, except for one who knocks with goodness. I believe in Allah and rely on Him. Praise be to Allah who has submitted everything to His power. Praise be to Allah who has humbled everything before His glory. Praise be to Allah who has humbled everything before His greatness. Praise be to Allah who has subjected everything to His sovereignty. O Allah, I ask You by Your lofty throne, the furthest limit of Your mercy, Your highest book, Your greatest name, and Your perfect words, which no righteous or wicked person can surpass, to look at us with a merciful glance that leaves no sin of ours unforgiven, no poverty unrelieved, no enemy unvanquished, no nakedness unrobed, no debt unpaid, and grant us every virtue in this world and in the Hereafter. I believe in Allah and rely on Him." Then she would say: "Glory be to Allah" thirty-three times, "Allah is the greatest" thirty-three times, and "Praise be to Allah" thirty-four times. Then she said: "O my daughter, this is the conclusion of the chapter. The daughter of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to him to serve him, and he said: 'Shall I not guide you to something better than a servant?' She said: 'Yes, please.' So he commanded her with these hundred words at the end of every night."
