حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلِ بْنِ غَزْوَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَطَاءُ بْنُ السَّائِبِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ:
كُنْتُ عِنْدَ عَمَّارٍ، وَكَانَ يَدْعُو بِدُعَاءٍ فِي صَلَاتِهِ فَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ، فَقَالَ لَهُ عَمَّارٌ قُلِ: اللَّهُمَّ بِعِلْمِكَ الْغَيْبَ، وَقُدْرَتِكَ عَلَى الْخَلْقِ، أَحْيِنِي مَا عَلِمْتَ الْحَيَاةَ خَيْرًا لِي، وَاقْبِضْنِي إِذَا عَلِمْتَ الْوَفَاةَ خَيْرًا لِي، اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ الْخَشْيَةَ فِي الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ، وَكَلِمَةَ الْحَقِّ فِي الرِّضَا وَالْغَضَبِ، وَالْقَصْدَ فِي الْغِنَى وَالْفَقْرِ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ الرِّضَا بَعْدَ الْقَضَاءِ، وَبَرْدَ الْعَيْشِ بَعْدَ الْمَوْتِ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ شَوْقًا إِلَى لِقَائِكَ مِنْ غَيْرِ ضَرَّاءَ مُضِرَّةٍ، وَلَا فِتْنَةٍ مُضِلَّةٍ، اللَّهُمَّ زَيِّنِّي بِزِينَةِ الْإِيمَانِ، وَاجْعَلْنِي مِنَ الْهُدَاةِ الْمُهْتَدِينَ 24 - ( 1625 ) - ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَلَا أُعَلِّمُكَ كَلِمَاتٍ هُنَّ أَحْسَنُ مِنْهُنَّ ؟ كَأَنَّهُ يَرْفَعُهُنَّ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، قَالَ: إِذَا أَخَذْتَ مَضْجَعَكَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ، فَقُلِ: اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْلَمْتُ نَفْسِي إِلَيْكَ، وَوَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِي إِلَيْكَ، وَفَوَّضْتُ أَمْرِي إِلَيْكَ، آمَنْتُ بِكِتَابِكَ الْمُنَزَّلِ، وَنَبِيِّكَ الْمُرْسَلِ، إِنَّ نَفْسِي نَفْسٌ خَلَقْتَهَا، لَكَ مَحْيَاهَا، وَلَكَ مَمَاتُهَا، فَإِنْ كَفَتَّهَا فَارْحَمْهَا، وَإِنْ أَخَّرْتَهَا فَاحْفَظْهَا بِحِفْظِ الْإِيمَانِ

✧ I was with 'Ammar, and he was making a supplication in his prayer. A man came to him, and 'Ammar said to him: 'Say: O Allah, by Your knowledge of the unseen and Your power over creation, keep me alive as long as You know life is better for me, and take my soul when You know death is better for me. O Allah, I ask You for fear of You in secret and in public, the word of truth in pleasure and anger, moderation in wealth and poverty, and I ask You for contentment after Your decree, and a pleasant life after death. I ask You for longing to meet You without harmful adversity or misleading trial. O Allah, adorn me with the adornment of faith, and make me one of the guides who are rightly guided.' 24 - (1625) - Then he said: 'Shall I not teach you words that are better than those?' As if he was raising them to the Prophet ﷺ. He said: 'When you go to your bed at night, say: O Allah, I have submitted my soul to You, turned my face to You, entrusted my affair to You, believed in Your revealed Book and Your sent Prophet. My soul is a soul You created; to You belongs its life and its death. If You take it, have mercy on it, and if You delay it, protect it with the protection of faith.'
