Dua Before Sleeping English Translation
O Allah, to You I did submit, and in You I did believe, and on You I did rely, and to You I did return, and with Your [help] I did dispute [defend and fight]. I seek refuge in Your Might, there is no deity [worthy of worship] but You, [that You] let me not go astray. You are the Ever living who does not perish, while the jinn and mankind perish.
