There is no deity except Allah, alone without partner. His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He is over all things capable. Glory be to Allah, praise be to Allah, there is no deity except Allah, Allah is the Greatest, and there is no power or strength except with Allah.
The Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever wakes up at night and says this, then says 'Allahummaghfir li' (O Allah forgive me) or makes any du'a — it will be answered. And if he performs wudu and prays, his prayer will be accepted." Waking up in the middle of the night is not an inconvenience — it is a divine appointment. Allah woke you to answer your du'a.
