Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 1237a
✧ Hamza with Dhal
"إِذَا استيقظَ الإنسانُ مِنْ منامه- ابتدره ملكُ وشيطانُ- فيقولُ الملكُ: - افتحْ بخَير. ويقولُ الشيطانُ: افْتَحْ بَشَرٍّ. فإنْ قَال: الحمدُ لله الذِى أحيا نَفِسى بَعْدَ مَوْتِها الحمدُ لله الذي يُمْسِكُ السماءُ أنْ تقَعَ على الأرضِ، والحمَدُ لله الذي يُمْسكُ التي قضَى عليها الموَتَ، ويُرسلُ الأخرى إلَى أجَلٍ مُسَمّى. طرَدَ الملكُ الشيطَانَ وظَل يَكلَؤُهُ.

Machine translation, not reviewed
"When a person wakes up from his sleep, a angel and a devil confront him. The angel says: 'Begin with good.' The devil says: 'Begin with evil.' If he says: 'All praise is due to Allah who has restored my soul after its death. All praise is due to Allah who holds back the sky from falling upon the earth, and all praise is due to Allah who holds back the soul upon which He has decreed death, and releases the other until a specified term.' The angel drives away the devil and continues to guard him."
