               comes from a negligent and heedless heart.” (al-Tirmidhi)
               “The supplication of one of you is granted if he does not
               grow impatient and say ‘I supplicated my Lord but it was
               not granted.’” (Sahih Muslim, Book 035, Number 6594)
              During the day, the Prophet Muhammad (saas) often used to
            supplicate as follows:  “I have set my face towards the
            Originator of the heavens and the earth sincerely [in Islam]
            and I am not among the polytheists. Indeed my prayer, my
            sacrifice, my living and my dying are for Allah, the Lord of
            the Worlds: no partner has He. With this I have been com-
            manded, and I am the first of the Muslims (those who sub-
            mit to Him). O Allah! You are the King, none has the right
            to be worshipped but You, You are the Most Perfect and all

            Forgive all my sins, for no one forgives sins except You.
            Guide me to the best of characters, to which no one can
            guide except You, and save me from the worst of charac-
            ters, from which no one can save except You. I am here and
            happy to serve You. You are blessed and exalted. I seek
            Your forgiveness and repent to You. O Allah, Creator of the
            heavens and Earth, Knower of all that is hidden and open! It
            is You Who will judge between Your servants in those mat-
            ters about which they used to differ. Guide me by Your
            Grace to the Truth concerning that about which they dif-
            fered, for indeed You guide whomsoever You wish to a path
            that is straight.” (al-Tirmidhi and Sahih Muslim)
              The supplication of the Prophet (saas) when he woke up:
               “All praise is due to Allah Who gave us life after He took
               it away from us, and unto Him is the Resurrection. There
               is no deity but Allah. He has no partner. The Kingdom is
