اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ نُورُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَنْ فِيهِنَّ وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ قَيِّمُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَنْ فِيهِنَّ وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ الْحَقُّ وَوَعْدُكَ حَقٌّ وَلِقَاؤُكَ حَقٌّ وَقَوْلُكَ حَقٌّ وَالْجَنَّةُ حَقٌّ وَالنَّارُ حَقٌّ وَالنَّبِيُّونَ حَقٌّ وَمُحَمَّدٌ حَقٌّ وَالسَّاعَةُ حَقٌّ اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ أَسْلَمْتُ وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ وَعَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَإِلَيْكَ أَنَبْتُ وَبِكَ خَاصَمْتُ وَإِلَيْكَ حَاكَمْتُ فَاغْفِرْ لِي مَا قَدَّمْتُ وَمَا أَخَّرْتُ وَمَا أَسْرَرْتُ وَمَا أَعْلَنْتُ أَنْتَ الْمُقَدِّمُ وَأَنْتَ الْمُؤَخِّرُ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ

Antal-Muqaddimu wa Antal-Mu'akhkhiru, la ilaha illa Ant.

O Allah, praise is Yours. You are the Light of the heavens and the earth and all within them. Praise is Yours. You are the Sustainer of the heavens and the earth and all within them. Praise is Yours. You are the Truth, Your promise is true, the meeting with You is true, Your word is true, Paradise is true, the Fire is true, the Prophets are true, Muhammad is true, and the Hour is true. O Allah, to You I have submitted, in You I have believed, upon You I have relied, to You I have turned in repentance, by You I have argued, and to You I have referred for judgement. So forgive me for what I have sent ahead and what I have left behind, what I have concealed and what I have made public. You are the One who brings forward and the One who puts back. There is no god but You.

SahihSahih al-Bukhari 1120, Sahih Muslim 769

The full opening du'a of the Prophet ﷺ for his night prayer (Tahajjud). He would stand alone in the darkness and address Allah with a cascade of truths: You are the Light, the Sustainer, the Truth — Your promise is true, Paradise is true, the Fire is true. Then total surrender: I submit to You, I believe in You, I rely on You, I repent to You, I argue by You, I judge by You. Then the plea for forgiveness. Night prayer strips away all pretense — it is just you and Allah.
