Sahih Muslim Book - 6, Hadith - 1812

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِى بَكْرٍ الْمُقَدَّمِىُّ حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ الْمَاجِشُونُ حَدَّثَنِى أَبِى عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الأَعْرَجِ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِى رَافِعٍ عَنْ عَلِىِّ بْنِ أَبِى طَالِبٍ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- أَنَّهُ كَانَ إِذَا قَامَ إِلَى الصَّلاَةِ قَالَ « وَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِىَ لِلَّذِى فَطَرَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ حَنِيفًا وَمَا أَنَا مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ إِنَّ صَلاَتِى وَنُسُكِى وَمَحْيَاىَ وَمَمَاتِى لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ لاَ شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَبِذَلِكَ أُمِرْتُ وَأَنَا مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ الْمَلِكُ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ. أَنْتَ رَبِّى وَأَنَا عَبْدُكَ ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِى وَاعْتَرَفْتُ بِذَنْبِى فَاغْفِرْ لِى ذُنُوبِى جَمِيعًا إِنَّهُ لاَ يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ وَاهْدِنِى لأَحْسَنِ الأَخْلاَقِ لاَ يَهْدِى لأَحْسَنِهَا إِلاَّ أَنْتَ وَاصْرِفْ عَنِّى سَيِّئَهَا لاَ يَصْرِفُ عَنِّى سَيِّئَهَا إِلاَّ أَنْتَ لَبَّيْكَ وَسَعْدَيْكَ وَالْخَيْرُ كُلُّهُ فِى يَدَيْكَ وَالشَّرُّ لَيْسَ إِلَيْكَ أَنَا بِكَ وَإِلَيْكَ تَبَارَكْتَ وَتَعَالَيْتَ أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْكَ ». وَإِذَا رَكَعَ قَالَ « اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ رَكَعْتُ وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ وَلَكَ أَسْلَمْتُ خَشَعَ لَكَ سَمْعِى وَبَصَرِى وَمُخِّى وَعَظْمِى وَعَصَبِى ». وَإِذَا رَفَعَ قَالَ « اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّنَا لَكَ الْحَمْدُ مِلْءَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَمِلْءَ الأَرْضِ وَمِلْءَ مَا بَيْنَهُمَا وَمِلْءَ مَا شِئْتَ مِنْ شَىْءٍ بَعْدُ ». وَإِذَا سَجَدَ قَالَ « اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ سَجَدْتُ وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ وَلَكَ أَسْلَمْتُ سَجَدَ وَجْهِى لِلَّذِى خَلَقَهُ وَصَوَّرَهُ وَشَقَّ سَمْعَهُ وَبَصَرَهُ تَبَارَكَ اللَّهُ أَحْسَنُ الْخَالِقِينَ ». ثُمَّ يَكُونُ مِنْ آخِرِ مَا يَقُولُ بَيْنَ التَّشَهُّدِ وَالتَّسْلِيمِ « اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِى مَا قَدَّمْتُ وَمَا أَخَّرْتُ وَمَا أَسْرَرْتُ وَمَا أَعْلَنْتُ وَمَا أَسْرَفْتُ وَمَا أَنْتَ أَعْلَمُ بِهِ مِنِّى أَنْتَ الْمُقَدِّمُ وَأَنْتَ الْمُؤَخِّرُ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ ».

It was narrated from 'Ali bin Abi Talib that when the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) got up to pray, he said: "Wajjahtu wajhia lilladhi fataras-samawati wal-arda hanifan wa ma ana min al-mushrikn, inna salati wa nusuki wa mahyaya wa mamati lillahi rabbil-'alamin, la sharika lahu wa bidhalika umirtu wa ana min al-muslimin. Allahumma antal-maliku la ilaha illa ant, anta rabbi, wa ana 'abduka zalamtu nafsi wa'taraftu bibhanbi fagbfirli dhunubi jami'an, innahu la yaghfir adh-dhunuba ilia ant. Wahdini li-ahsanil-akhlaqi Ia yahdi li-ahsaniha illa ant, wasrif 'anni sayyi'aha, la tasrifu 'anni sayyi'aha illa ant. Labaika wa sa'daika, wal-khairu kulluhu fi yadaika, wash-sharru laisa ilaik, wa ana bika wa ilaik, tabarakta wa ta'alaita astaghfiruka wa atubu ilaik." (I have turned my face in submission to the One who originated the heavens and the earth, and I am not one of the idolators. Verily, my Salat (prayer), my sacrifice, my living, and my dying are for Allah, the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinn and all that exists). He has no partner. And of this I have been commanded, and I am one of the Muslims. O Allah, You are the Sovereign, there is none worthy of worship but You. You are my Lord and I am Your slave. I have wronged myself and I admit my sin, so forgive me all my sins, for no one can forgive sins except You. Guide me to the best of conduct, for none can guide to that except You. Remove from me my evil deeds, for none can remove them except You. Here I am at Your service, all goodness is in Your hand and evil cannot be attributed to You. My existence is due to You and my return is to You. Blessed and exalted are You, I seek Your forgiveness and I repent to You.) When he bowed, he said: ''Allahumma laka raka'tu ba bika amantu wa laka aslamtu khasha'a laka sam'i wa basari wa mukhkhi wa 'azmi, wa 'asbi (O Allah, to You I have bowed, in You I have believed and to You I have submitted. My hearing, my sight, my brain, my bones and my sinews submit to You.) When he rose from bowing he said: ''Allahumma rabbana lakal-Hamdu mil'as samawati wal-ardi wa mil'a ma bainahuma, wa mil'a ma shi'ta min shai'in ba'd." (O Allah our Lord, to You be praise, filling the heavens, filling the earth, filling that which is between them and filling whatever else You will besides.) When he prostrated he said: ''Allahumma laka sajadtu wa bika amantu wa laka aslamtu, sajada wajhi lilladhi khalaqahu wa suwwarahu wa shaqqa sam'ahu wa basarahu tabarak Allahu ahsanul-khaliqin." (O Allah, to You I have prostrated, in You I have believed and to You I have submitted. My face has prostrated to the One Who created it and gave it shape, and opened its hearing and sight. Blessed be Allah, the Best of creators.) Then the last thing he said between the Tashah-hud and the Taslim was: ''Allahummaghfirli ma qaddamtu wa ma akhkhrtu wa ma asrartu wa ma a'lantu wa ma asraftu, wa ma anta a'lamu bihi minni antal-muqaddimu wa antal-mu'akhkhiru, Ia ilaha ilia ant." (O Allah, forgive me my past and future sins, what I have done in secret and what I have done openly, what I have transgressed and what you know more than I. You are the One who brings forward and the One Who puts back, there is none worthy of worship but You.)
