مروي عن الأئمة المعصومين عليهم السلام في كتب الأدعية المعتبرة.
Thirty-three: Quoted from 'Uddat al-Da'i, Imam 'Ali Amir al-Mu'minin ('a) is reported to have said: When you intend to go to sleep, you may put your right hand under your right cheek and say this devotional statement. If you say it before going to sleep, Almighty Allah will guard you against raiding thieves and against demolition, and the angels will implore Almighty Allah to forgive you:
Sura ya thelathini na tatu: Imenukuliwa kutoka kwa 'Uddat al-Da'i, inaripotiwa kwamba Imam 'Ali Amir al-Mu'minin ('a) alisema: Unapokusudia kwenda kulala, unaweza kuweka mkono wako wa kulia chini ya shavu lako la kulia na kusema maneno haya ya kiibada. Ukisema kabla ya kulala, Mwenyezi Mungu atakulinda dhidi ya wezi wavamizi na dhidi ya kuporomokewa na nyumba (kubomoka), na malaika watamwomba Mwenyezi Mungu akusamehe:
بِسْمِ اللهِ
Bismillāh
In the Name of Allah.
Kwa jina la Mwenyezi Mungu.
وَضَعْتُ جَنْبِىْ للّهُ
Waḍa‘tu janbī lillāh
I put my side for the sake of Allah,
Nikaweka ubavu wangu kwa ajili ya Mwenyezi Mungu,
عَلَى مِلَّةٍ اِبْرَاهِيْمَ
‘alā millati Ibrāhīm
following the faith of Abraham,
katika kufuata mila ya Ibrahimu,
وَ دِيْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ
Wa dīni Muḥammad
the religion of Muhammad,
na dini ya Muhammad,
صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ ألِهِ
Ṣallallāhu ‘alayhi wa ālih
may Allah send blessings and benediction upon him and his Household,
rehema na amani za Mwenyezi Mungu ziwe juu yake na kizazi chake (Ahlul-Bayt),
وَ وِلَايَةٍ مَنِ افْتَرَضَ اللَهُ طَاعَتَهُ
Wa wilāyati mani-ftaraḍallāhu ṭā‘atah
and showing loyalty to those the obedience to whom has been made incumbent upon us by Allah.
na kushikamana na uongozi wa yule ambaye utii kwake umefanywa kuwa wa lazima na Mwenyezi Mungu kwetu.
مَا شَآءَ اللهُ كَانَ
Mā shā’allāhu kāna
Only what Allah wills shall come to pass,
Yale tu anayoyataka Mwenyezi Mungu ndiyo yanayokuwa,
وَ مَا لَمْ يَشَأْ لَمْ يَكُنْ-
Wa mā lam yasha’ lam yakun
but what Allah does not will shall never come to pass.
