قَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نَصْرٍ ثَنَا عَامِرُ بْنُ يَسَافٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ:
« أَلَا أُخْبِرُكَ بِأَمْرٍ هُوَ حَقٌّ، مَنْ تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ فِي أَوَّلِ مَضْجَعِهِ فِي مَرَضِهِ نَجَّاهُ اللهُ تَعَالَى مِنَ النَّارِ ؟ » قَالَ: بَلَى بِأَبِي وَأُمِّي. قَالَ ﷺ: « اعْلَمْ أَنَّكَ إِذَا أَصْبَحْتَ لَمْ تُمْسِ، وَإِذَا أَمْسَيْتَ لَمْ تُصْبِحْ، وَأَنَّكَ إِذَا قُلْتَ ذَلِكَ فِي أَوَّلِ مَضْجَعِكَ مِنْ مَرَضِكَ نَجَّاكَ اللهُ تَعَالَى بِهِ مِنَ النَّارِ، أَنْ تَقُولَ: لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ، يُحْيِي وَيُمِيتُ، وَهُوَ حَيٌّ لَا يَمُوتُ، سُبْحَانَ رَبِّ الْعِبَادِ وَالْبِلَادِ، الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ حَمْدًا كَثِيرًا طَيِّبًا مُبَارَكًا فِيهِ عَلَى كُلِّ حَالٍ، اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، كِبْرِيَاءُ رَبِّنَا وَجَلَالُهُ وَقُدْرَتُهُ فِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كُنْتَ أَمْرَضْتَنِي لِقَبْضِ رُوحِي فِي مَرَضِي هَذَا فَاجْعَلْ رُوحِي فِي أَرْوَاحِ مَنْ سَبَقَتْ لَهُمْ مِنْكَ الْحُسْنَى، فَإِنْ مِتَّ فِي مَرَضِكَ ذَلِكَ فَإِلَى رِضْوَانِ اللهِ تَعَالَى وَالْجَنَّةِ، وَإِنْ كُنْتَ قَدِ اقْتَرَفْتَ ذُنُوبًا تَابَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَلَيْكَ

✧ “Shall I not inform you of a matter that is true—whoever utters it at the beginning of his lying down during his illness, God Almighty will save him from the Fire?” He said: “Yes, by my father and mother.” He ﷺ said: “Know that if you reach the morning, you will not reach the evening, and if you reach the evening, you will not reach the morning. If you say this at the beginning of your lying down during your illness, God Almighty will save you by it from the Fire: ‘There is no god but God. He gives life and causes death, and He is Ever-Living and does not die. Glory be to the Lord of servants and lands. Praise be to God, abundant, good, and blessed praise, in every state. God is greatest—the pride of our Lord, His majesty, and His power in every place. O God, if You have made me ill in order to take my soul in this illness of mine, place my soul among the souls of those for whom the best has preceded from You. If you die in that illness, then [you go] to the good pleasure of God Almighty and Paradise, and if you have committed sins, God, Mighty and Majestic, will relent toward you.’”
