It is narrated from Sayyiduna Bara’ bin ‘Azib (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taught a man these words, that when he goes to his bed, he should say in this manner:“ «اللّٰهُمَّ وَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِيَ إِلَيْكَ، وَأَلْجَأْتُ ظَهْرِي إِلَيْكَ، وَفَوَّضْتُ أَمْرِي إِلَيْكَ، وَأَسْلَمْتُ نَفْسِي إِلَيْكَ، رَهْبَةً مِنْكَ، وَرَغْبَةً إِلَيْكَ، وَلَا مَلْجَأَ وَلَا مَنْجَا مِنْكَ إِلَّا إِلَيْكَ، آمَنْتُ بِكِتَابِكَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلْتَ وَنَبِيِّكَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلْتَ» ”“O Allah! I have turned my face towards You, and entrusted my back to You, and have handed over my affair to You, and have entrusted my soul to You, fearing You and desiring towards You. There is no refuge and no escape from You except with You. I have believed in Your Book which You have revealed and in Your Messenger whom You have sent.”The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If he dies that night, all his sins are forgiven.

Sayyiduna Rafi‘ bin Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him) says that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would not rise from his gathering without reciting this supplication:“ «سُبْحَانَكَ اللّٰهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْكَ» ”, then he would say:“This is an expiation for the gathering.”

Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When any of you sees someone afflicted with a trial, he should say: ' «الْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ الَّذِي فَضَّلَنِي عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَىٰ كَثِيرٍ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ تَفْضِيلًا» ' 'All praise is due to Allah who has favored me over you and over much of His creation.'"

Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) says that the Prophet (peace be upon him) used to supplicate: " «اللّٰهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ غَلَبَةِ الدَّيْنِ وَمِنْ بَوَارِ الْأَيِّمِ» " "O Allah! I seek refuge with You from being overpowered by debt and from people desiring widows."

Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever visits a sick person and says: ' «أَسْأَلُ اللّٰهَ الْعَظِيمَ رَبَّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ أَنْ يَشْفِيَكَ» ' 'I ask Allah, the Mighty, the Lord of the Great Throne, to cure you,' and says this seven times, then if his time of death has not come, he will be cured."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abi Awfa (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) made this supplication on the Day of Ahzab: " «اللّٰهُمَّ مُنَزِّلَ الْكِتَابِ، مَجْرِيَ السَّحَابِ، سَرِيعَ الْحِسَابِ، هَازِمَ الْأَحْزَابِ، اهْزِمْهُمْ وَزَلْزِلْهُمْ» " "O Allah! Revealer of the Book, Mover of the clouds, Swift in reckoning, Defeater of the confederate groups, defeat them and shake them."

Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this hadith as marfu‘ that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“No deed of a person can save him from Allah’s punishment more than the remembrance of Allah.”It was asked: O Messenger of Allah! Not even striving in the way of Allah? He replied:“Yes, even striving in the way of Allah, unless you strike with your sword so much that it breaks.”

Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever recites «سُبْحَانَ اللّٰهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ» , a date palm tree is planted for him."

Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to recite this supplication:“ «اللّٰهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْعَجْزِ وَالْكَسَلِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْقَسْوَةِ وَالْغَفْلَةِ وَالْعَيْلَةِ، وَالذِّلَّةِ وَالْمَسْكَنَةِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْفُسُوقِ وَالشِّقَاقِ وَالنِّفَاقِ، وَالسُّمْعَةِ وَالرِّيَاءِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الصَّمَمِ وَالْبَكَمِ، وَالْجُنُونِ وَالْبَرَصِ، وَالْجُذَامِ وَسَيِّئِ الْأَسْقَامِ» ”“O Allah! I seek refuge in You from incapacity and laziness, and I seek refuge in You from hardness of the heart, heedlessness, poverty, humiliation, and destitution, and I seek refuge in You from immorality, discord, hypocrisy, notoriety, and showing off, and I seek refuge in You from becoming deaf or mute, and from madness, leucoderma, leprosy, and evil diseases.”

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Shall I not teach you the words which Musa (peace be upon him) said while crossing the sea with the Children of Israel?" We said: "Why not, O Messenger of Allah! Please do tell us." He (peace be upon him) said: "Say: ' «اللّٰهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ وَإِلَيْكَ الْمُشْتَكَىٰ وَأَنْتَ الْمُسْتَعَانُ وَلَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللّٰهِ الْعَلِيِّ الْعَظِيمِ» ' 'O Allah! All praise is for You, and to You alone is the complaint, and from You alone help is sought, and there is no power to turn away from sins nor strength to do good except with Allah, the Most High, the Most Great.'" Abdullah says: Since I heard these words, I have never abandoned them. Shafeeq says: Since I heard them from Abdullah, I have never abandoned them. A'mash says: Since I heard them from Shafeeq, I have never abandoned them. Then a man came to me in a dream and said: Add these words to this supplication: ' «وَنَسْتَعِينُكَ عَلَىٰ فَسَادٍ فِينَا وَنَسْأَلُكَ صَلَاحَ أَمْرِنَا كُلِّهِ» ' 'And we seek Your help in our shortcomings and seek rectification in all our affairs.'"
