حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَخْبَرَنِي مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَخْبَرَنِي أَزْهَرُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْحَرَازِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ حُمَيْدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ سُئِلْتُ عَائِشَةَ:‏‏‏‏ بِأَيِّ شَيْءٍ كَانَ يَفْتَتِحُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قِيَامَ اللَّيْلِ ؟ فَقَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ لَقَدْ سَأَلْتَنِي عَنْ شَيْءٍ مَا سَأَلَنِي عَنْهُ أَحَدٌ قَبْلَكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ كَانَ إِذَا قَامَ كَبَّرَ عَشْرًا وَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ عَشْرًا وَسَبَّحَ عَشْرًا وَهَلَّلَ عَشْرًا وَاسْتَغْفَرَ عَشْرًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي وَاهْدِنِي وَارْزُقْنِي وَعَافِنِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَيَتَعَوَّذُ مِنْ ضِيقِ الْمَقَامِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد:‏‏‏‏ وَرَوَاهُ خَالِدُ بْنُ مَعْدَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ الْجُرَشِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏نَحْوَهُ.

I asked Aishah رضی اللہ عنہا : By what words the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم would begin his supererogatory prayer at night? She replied: You ask me about a thing of which no one asked me before you. When he stood up, be uttered the takbir (Allah is most great) ten times, and uttered Praise be to Allah ten times, and uttered Glory be to Allah ten times, and uttered There is no god but Allah ten times, and sought forgiveness ten times, and said: O Allah, forgive me, and guide me, and give me sustenance, and keep me well, and he sought refuge in Allah from the hardship of standing before Allah on the Day of Judgment. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has also been narrated by Khalid bin Madan from Rabiah al-Jarashi on the authority of Aishah.
