In this prayer of Messenger of Allah (PBUH) the state of sleep is associated with death, while the state of being awake is associated with life. Furthermore, it conjures up the vision of Doomsday. However, to recite these prayers prior to going to sleep and on getting up was the practice of Messenger of Allah (PBUH). Hudhaifah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Whenever the prophet (PBUH) lay down for sleep at night, he would place his (right) hand under his (right) cheek and supplicate: Bismika Allahumma amutu wa ahya (O Allah, with Your Name will I die and live (wake up)). And when he woke up, he would supplicate: Al-hamdu lillahil-ladhi ahyana bada ma amatana, wa ilaihin-nushur (All praise is due to Allah, Who has brought us back to life after He has caused us to die, and to Him is the return). (Al-Bukhari)
