حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ حَجَّاجٍ الصَّوَّافِ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - ﷺ قَالَ:
إِذَا أَوَى الرَّجُلُ إِلَى فِرَاشِهِ ابْتَدَرَهُ مَلَكٌ وَشَيْطَانٌ، فَيَقُولُ الْمَلَكُ: اخْتِمْ بِخَيْرٍ، وَيَقُولُ الشَّيْطَانُ: اخْتِمْ بِشَرٍّ، فَإِنْ ذَكَرَ اللهَ ثُمَّ نَامَ بَاتَ الْمَلَكُ يَكْلَؤُهُ، فَإِذَا اسْتَيْقَظَ، قَالَ الْمَلَكُ: افْتَحْ بِخَيْرٍ، وَقَالَ الشَّيْطَانُ: افْتَحْ بِشَرٍّ، فَإِنْ قَالَ: الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِي رَدَّ عَلَيَّ نَفْسِي وَلَمْ يُمِتْهَا فِي مَنَامِهَا، الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِي يُمْسِكُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ أَنْ تَزُولا، إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ، الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِي يُمْسِكُ السَّمَاءَ أَنْ تَقَعَ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ، فَإِنْ وَقَعَ مِنْ سَرِيرِهِ فَمَاتَ دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ

✧ When a man goes to his bed, an angel and a devil race to him. The angel says: 'Seal with good,' and the devil says: 'Seal with evil.' If he remembers Allah then sleeps, the angel spends the night guarding him. When he wakes, the angel says: 'Begin with good,' and the devil says: 'Begin with evil.' If he says: 'Praise be to Allah who restored my soul to me and did not cause it to die in its sleep; praise be to Allah who holds the heavens and the earth lest they cease'—to the end of the verse—'praise be to Allah who holds the heaven lest it fall upon the earth except by His permission,' then if he falls from his bed and dies, he enters Paradise.
