[19] Her supplication for cure of insomnia
It is narrated from Ali (a.s.) that he said: Fatima (s.a.) complained to the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.a.) about insomnia. He told her: Recite the following my child:
يَا مُشْبِعَ الْبُطُوْنِ الْجَائِعَةِ، وَ يَا كَاسِيَ الْجُسُوْمِ الْعَارِيَةِ وَ يَا سَاكِنَ الْعُرُوْقِ الضَّارِبَةِ، وَ يَا مُنَوِّمَ الْعُيُوْنِ السَّاهِرَةِ، سَكِّنْ عُرُوْقِيَ الضَّارِبَةِ، وَ اْذَنْ لِعَيْنِيْ نَوْمًا عَاجِلًا.
yaa mushbe-a’l botoonil jaa-e-a’te, wa yaa kaaseyal josoomil a’areyate wa yaa saakenal o’rooqiz zaarebate, wa yaa monawwemal o’yoonis saaherate, sakkin o’rooqeyaz zaarebate, waa zan le-a’ynee nawman a’ajelan.
O One, Who fills the empty stomachs and One, Who covers the naked bodies, O One, Who steadies the throbbing veins. O One, Who puts to sleep, the wakeful eyes. Make my throbbing veins steady and allow sleep for my eyes soon.

Imam Jaa'far Saadiq (A.S.) said that when you have difficulty in falling asleep, recite this Duaa:
Sub'haanallaahi Zish-Shaani Daa'imis-Sultwaani Kulla Yawmin Huwa Fish-Shaan.

30] Lady Fatima (sa) supplication while going to bed -Sahifa Fatima (sa)
اَلْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الْكَافِيْ، سُبْحَانَ اللهِ الْاَعْلٰى، حَسْبِىَ اللهُ وَ كَفٰى، مَا شَاءَ اللهُ قَضٰى، سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ دَعَا، لَيْسَ مِنَ اللهِ مَلْجَاٌ، وَ لَا وَرَاءَ اللهِ مُلْتَجَاٌ.
alhamdo lillaahil kaafee, subhaanal laahil a-a’laa, hasbeyal laaho wa kafaa, maa shaa allaho qazaa, same-a’l laaho leman da-a’a, laysa menal laahe malja-un, wa laa waraa allahe multaja-un.
All praise is for that God, Who is sufficient and Who is pure and untainted is the God, Who is lofty and great. Allah is sufficient for me and He does whatever He likes. He harkens to the supplication of every supplicant. There is no refuge other than Allah, and there is no protection other than Him.

تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَي اللہِ رَبِّيْ وَرَبِّكُمْ۝۰ۭ مَا مِنْ دَاۗبَّۃٍ اِلَّا ہُوَ اٰخِذٌۢ بِنَاصِيَتِہَا۝۰ۭ اِنَّ رَبِّيْ عَلٰي صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِيْمٍ.
tawakkalto a’lal laahe rabbee wa rabbekum, maa min daabbatin illaa howa aakhezun be-naaseyatehaa, inna rabbee a’laa seraatim mustaqeem.
I rely upon Allah, Who is my Lord and your Lord and everything that moves on the surface of the earth is within His control. Indeed, the path of My Lord is the straight path.[1]

اَلْحَمْدُ لِلہِ الَّذِيْ لَمْ يَتَّخِذْ وَلَدًا وَّ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَّہٗ شَرِيْكٌ فِيْ الْمُلْكِ وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَّہٗ وَلِيٌّ مِّنَ الذُّلِّ وَكَبِّرْہُ تَكْبِيْرًا.
al-hamdolil laahil lazee lam yattakhiz waladanw wa lam yakul lahu shareekun fil mulke wa lam yakul lahu waliyyum menaz zulle wa kabbirho takbeeraa.
All praise is for that God, who did not deem anyone as His son nor is there any partner in His kingdom or a support in His weakness. And it is incumbent on everyone to confess to His greatness.[2]


[31] Her supplication for preventing nightmares
اَعُوْذُ بِمَا عَاذَتْ بِهٖ مَلَائِكَةُ اللهِ الْمُقَرَّبُوْنَ، وَ اَنْبِيَاءُ اللهِ الْمُرْسَلُوْنَ، وَ عِبَادُهُ اللهِ الصَّالِحُونَ، مِنْ شَرِّ رُؤْيَايَ الَّتِيْ رَاَيْتُ: اَنْ تَضُرَّنِيْ فِيْ دِيْنِيْ وَ دُنْيَايَ.‏
a-o’ozo bemaa a’azat behi malaa-ekatul laahil moqarraboona, wa anbeyaa-ul laahil mursaloona, wa e’baadul laahis saalehoona, min sharre roayaayal latee ra-ayto: an tazurranee fee deenee wa dunyaaya.
I seek refuge of the one, whose refuge is sought by the proximate angels, prophets, messengers, and the righteous from the mischief of the dreams that I see: that prove harmful in the world and the hereafter.

After that spit thrice on the left.

At Bedtime - 46
اَلْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ، اللَّهُمَّ اِنِّى اُشْهِدُكَ فَاشْهِدُكَ فَاشْهَدُوا يَا مَنْ حَضَرَنى اَنَّهُمَا قَدْ آذَيَانى فِى حَيَاتِى وَ عِنْدَ مَوْتِى-
