Ways of The Prophet (S.A.W)

Dusting the bedding

Hadrat Abu Hurairah (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated ALLAH’s Messenger (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) as saying that when any of them went to bed he should dust his bedding with the inner extreme of his lower garment, for he does not know what has come on to it since he left it. He should then lie down on his right side and say,

In The name, my Lord, I lay down on my side. If thou takest my soul to account have mercy on it, but if Thou lettest it go, guard it with that with which Thou guardest Thy upright servants. [Mishkat - al- Adabul Mufrid]
