Al-Adab Al-Mufrad #1217
Sleep and night lodging
Jabir said: "When a man enters his house or goes to bed, an angel
and shaytan hasten to him. The angel says, 'Seal it with good!' The Shaytan
says, 'Seal it with evil.' If he praises Allah and remembers Him, he chases
the shaytan away and spends the night with him guarding him. When he wakes
up, the angel and shaytan hasten to him and say the same thing. If he mentions
Allah and says, 'Praise be to Allah, who keeps firm hold of the heavens
and earth, preventing them from vanishing away. And if they vanished no
one could then keep hold of them. Certainly He is Most Forbearing, Ever-Forgiving.'
(35:41)
Praise be to Allah who holds back the sky preventing it from falling
on the earth, except by His permission. Allah is All-Compassionate to mankind,
Most Merciful.' (22:63) If he dies, he dies a martyr, If he gets up
and prays, he prays in virtue.'"
