When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) stood up for praying at midnight, he said: o Allah, be praise to You, You are the light of the heavens and the earth; and to You be praise; You are the maintainer of the heavens and the earth; and to You be praise, You are the heavens and the earth and what is between them; You are the truth, and Your statement is truth; and Your promise is the truth; and the visitation with You is true; and the Paradise is true and the Hell-fire is true and the Hour is true; O Allah, to You I turned my attention, and by You I disputed, and to You I brought forth my case, so forgive me my former and latter sins, and my secret and open sins, You are my deity, there is no deity but You.
