Dua for Ease on the Day of Resurrection (Recited Before Sleep)

Sleep Duas
Hasan HadithSunan At-Tirmidhi 3524

اللَّهُمَّ حَاسِبْنِي حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا

✦

O Allah, reckon me with an easy reckoning.

Allahumma hasibni hisaban yaseera

When to Read

This powerful supplication is best recited just before you go to sleep. It’s a beautiful way to end your day, consciously asking Allah (SWT) for His mercy and ease as you transition into rest, knowing that the ultimate Day of Judgment awaits us all.

How to Read

Recite this dua with sincere intention and a humble heart. It’s a simple yet profound request, so focus on the meaning and the immense mercy of Allah (SWT). You can recite it once, or repeat it a few times if you feel drawn to it. It is recommended to face the Qiblah and be in a state of Wudu if possible, though the primary requirement is sincerity.

Virtues & Benefits

This dua is a direct plea for Allah's mercy on the Day of Resurrection, a day when all deeds will be accounted for. An 'easy reckoning' means Allah will overlook our shortcomings and judge us based on His immense grace. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught us this, showing us the importance of seeking ease in the hereafter even in our daily lives. By making this plea before sleep, we are constantly keeping the hereafter in our minds and actively seeking Allah's favor.

Source & Authentication

Narrated by Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her): The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: 'O Allah, reckon me with an easy reckoning.' When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked: 'O Messenger of Allah, what is an easy reckoning?', he replied: 'It is that the Lord looks at the servant, forgives his sins, and when He counts them, He does so secretly and does not expose them. Then He forgives him for them.' He said: 'And whoever's reckoning is in this way on that Day, he will not be questioned.' (Narrated by Ahmad, At-Tirmidhi, and Al-Hakim)

Dua for Protection from a Bad Death Before Sleep

O Allah, I ask You for the life of the happy, the death of a martyr, the victory over enemies, the life of bliss, and companionship of the highest. And grant me help in obeying You, and contentment with Your decree, and gratitude after prosperity, and seizing the branches (of fruits), and a good end, and forgiveness after death, and abundant provision. And there is no life except the life of the Hereafter, with desire and fear, love and awe, and weeping and good deeds. So, O Lord, let us reach our desires, and do not punish us for what we have done, and give us what we ask for, then make us pleased with it, and say to us a word that is accepted. O Allah, Lord of the seven heavens and Lord of the Mighty Throne, our Lord and Lord of all things, Revealer of the Torah, the Gospel, and the Quran, Cleaver of the seed and the date-stone. I seek refuge in You from the evil of all things You are seizing the forelock of. O Allah, You are the First, so there is nothing before You; You are the Last, so there is nothing after You; You are the Outwardly Apparent, so there is nothing above You; You are the Inwardly Hidden, so there is nothing nearer than You. Settle our debts for us and enrich us from poverty.
