بِاسْمِكَ اللَّهُمَّ أَمُوتُ وَأَحْيَا
Bismika Allahumma amutu wa ahya
In Your Name, O Allah, I die and I live.
The Prophet ﷺ said this when lying down to sleep, and upon waking he would say: "Alhamdu lillahil-ladhi ahyana ba'da ma amatana wa ilayhin-nushur" — acknowledging that sleep is a minor death and waking is a daily resurrection.

The Messenger has believed in what was revealed to him from his Lord, and so have the believers. All of them have believed in Allah and His angels and His books and His messengers, saying: 'We make no distinction between any of His messengers.' And they say: 'We hear and we obey. Grant us Your forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the final destination. Allah does not burden a soul beyond its capacity. It will have what it has earned, and it will bear what it has earned. Our Lord, do not take us to account if we forget or make a mistake. Our Lord, do not lay upon us a burden like that which You laid upon those before us. Our Lord, do not burden us with that which we have no ability to bear. Pardon us, forgive us, and have mercy upon us. You are our protector, so give us victory over the disbelieving people.'
