English

[1811] 200 – (770) Abü Salamah bin 'Abdur-Rahmân bin 'Awf said: "I asked 'Aiah, the Mother of the Believers, how the Prophet of Allah used to start his prayer when he got up at night. She said: 'When he got up to pray at night, he would start his prayer with the words: Allâhuma rabba jabrâ'Ila wa mIkâ 'ha wa israfila fâtiras- samâwâti wal-ard, 'âlimal-ghaibi wash-shahâdah, anta tahkumu bain 'ibâdika fimâ kânâ fihi yakhtalifân, ihdinI limâjc/tulifa fihi mina1-zaqqi bi-iJjnika innaka tahdI man tashâ'u ila sirâtin mustaqIm. (0 Allah, Lord of Jibrâ'll, Mikâ'Il and IsrâfIl, Originator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the seen, You judge between Your slaves concerning that wherein they differ. Guide me concerning that wherein they differ of the truth by Your leave, for You guide whomsoever You will to a straight path.)",
