According to a hadith recorded by Anas ibn Malik, the Prophet used to recite this dua before going to sleep:

“When you go to bed, perform ablution like that for the prayer, then lie down on your right side and say: ‘Allahumma aslamtu nafsi ilaika wa fawwadtu amri ilaika wa alja’tu dhahri ilaika wa amantu bikitabika al-muqaddas, wa bi nabiyyika al-muhammad. Allahumma inni a’udhu bika min al-kasali wa al-harami wa al-jubni wa al-bukhli. Allahumma inni a’udhu bika min ghalabatidh-dhunubi wa qahrir-rijal.’ (O Allah! I surrender my soul to You, and I entrust my affairs to You. I turn my face towards You, and I rely on Your holy book and Your prophet. O Allah! I seek refuge in You from the heavy burdens, from committing sins and from the torment of the grave. O Allah! I seek refuge in You from the overpowering of sin and from the oppression of men.) If you die that night, you will die as a believer. So make that the last thing you say.” (Sahih Bukhari)

Eternal Aid is a Leading Charity based in the United Kingdom, working across the globe.

A group of volunteers came together on this charity initiative and spent the next few years supporting various campaigns and appeals across the world.

These volunteers were inspired by the depths of deprivation and need, as well as the opportunity to make a significant difference to communities all over the globe in desperate circumstances.

They decided to make it a permanent venture and thus Eternal Aid was born. In the last few years, Eternal Aid has been successfully working in many countries. Eternal Aid has provided essentials such as food, water, clothing, medical equipment, education as well as developing sustainable projects.
