Narrated Abu Ad-Darda': The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: When any one of you wakes up in the morning, he should say: 'Allahumma 'afini fi badani, Allahumma 'afini fi sam'i, Allahumma 'afini fi basari, la ilaha illa anta. Allahumma inni a'udhu bika minal-kufri wal-faqr, Allahumma inni a'udhu bika min 'adhab al-qabri, la ilaha illa anta.' (O Allah, grant me well-being in my body. O Allah, grant me well-being in my hearing. O Allah, grant me well-being in my sight. There is no god but You. O Allah, I seek refuge in You from disbelief and poverty. O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the punishment of the grave. There is no god but You.) If you wake up in the morning saying this, and you die on that day, you will die a martyr. If you wake up in the evening saying this, and you die on that night, you will die as a martyr. (Sunan Abi Dawud 5088)
