Hazrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would perform the Tahajjud prayer at night, he would supplicate as follows: O Allah! All praise is for You; You are the Light of the heavens and the earth, and all praise is for You; You are the Sustainer of the heavens and the earth, and all praise is for You; You are the Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is within them. You are the Truth, and Your word is the truth, and Paradise is the truth, and the Fire is the truth, and the Resurrection is the truth. O Allah! I submit to You alone, and I believe in You alone, and I rely upon You alone, and with Your help I contend (with the enemy), and to You I turn for judgment. So forgive me for all that I have done before and all that I will do later, and what I have done secretly and what I have done openly, and You know more about them than I do. You are the First and You are the Last. There is no deity worthy of worship except You.
