Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَظِيمِ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَحْوَصُ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ جَوَّابٍ - حَدَّثَنَا عَمَّارُ بْنُ رُزَيْقٍ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الْحَارِثِ، وَأَبِي، مَيْسَرَةَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ عِنْدَ مَضْجَعِهِ ‏"‏ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِوَجْهِكَ الْكَرِيمِ وَكَلِمَاتِكَ التَّامَّةِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا أَنْتَ آخِذٌ بِنَاصِيَتِهِ اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ تَكْشِفُ الْمَغْرَمَ وَالْمَأْثَمَ اللَّهُمَّ لاَ يُهْزَمُ جُنْدُكَ وَلاَ يُخْلَفُ وَعْدُكَ وَلاَ يَنْفَعُ ذَا الْجَدِّ مِنْكَ الْجَدُّ سُبْحَانَكَ وَبِحَمْدِكَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Al-Abbas ibn Abd al-Azim al-Anbari narrated to us: al-Ahwaz, meaning Ibn Jawwab, narrated to us: Ammar ibn Ruzaq narrated to us, from Abu Ishaq, from al-Harith and Abu Maysarah, from Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, who used to say when he went to bed: O Allah, I seek refuge by Your noble Countenance and Your perfect words from the evil of everything whose forelock You hold. O Allah, You dispel debt and sin. O Allah, Your army cannot be defeated, Your promise cannot be broken, and no wealth or good fortune can benefit its possessor against You. Glory and praise be to You.
