Pray regularly & sincerely; Seek refuge & forgiveness from God; Praise & thank God for His blessings; Believe that there is only one true God who deserves all worship & adoration

This hadith speaks of the importance of prayer and supplication to seek refuge in Allah's mercy. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was found one night in a bowing or prostrating posture reciting "Subhanaka wa bi hamdika. La ilaha illa Anta" which translates to "You are free from imperfection and I begin praising You. There is no true god except You". He was also supplicating "Allahumma inni a'udhu biridaka min sakhatika, wa bi-mu'afatika min 'uqubatika, wa a'udhu bika minka, la uhsi thana'an 'alaika, Anta kama athnaita 'ala Nafsika" which translates to "O Allah! I seek protection against Your Wrath in Your Pleasure. I seek protection in Your Pardon against Your chastisement, I am not capable of enumerating praise of You. You are as You have lauded Yourself". This hadith teaches us that we should always turn to prayer and supplication when seeking refuge from our Lord's wrath and ask for His mercy and forgiveness for our sins. We should also remember to praise Him for all His blessings on us as He is the only true God who deserves all our worship and adoration.
