قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) أَ لَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِمَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) يَقُولُ إِذَا أَوَى إِلَى فِرَاشِهِ قُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ آيَةَ الْكُرْسِيِّ وَ يَقُولُ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ آمَنْتُ بِاللَّهِ وَ كَفَرْتُ بِالطَّاغُوتِ اللَّهُمَّ احْفَظْنِي فِي مَنَامِي وَ فِي يَقَظَتِي .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Jameel Bin Darraj, from Muhammad Bin Marwan who said, ‘Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Shall I<sup>asws</sup> inform you with what Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> used to say whenever he<sup>saww</sup> retired to his<sup>saww</sup> bed?’ I said, ‘Yes’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘He<sup>saww</sup> used to recite The Verse of the Chair (Ayat Al Kursy – 2:255) and he<sup>saww</sup> was saying: ‘In the Name of Allah<sup>azwj</sup>. I<sup>saww</sup> believe in Allah<sup>azwj</sup> and disbelieve in the idols. O Allah<sup>azwj</sup>! Protect me<sup>saww</sup> during my<sup>saww</sup> sleep and during my<sup>saww</sup> waking up’.
