Here are some of the great evening supplications that Muslims are encouraged to recite in order to remain under Allah’s protection and care, and which bring peace and tranquility to the heart.
Written Evening Supplications
Recitation of Ayat al-Kursi: {Allah—there is no god but He, the Ever-Living, the Self-Subsisting. Neither slumber nor sleep overtakes Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on earth. Who is there that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is before them and what is behind them, and they cannot comprehend anything of His knowledge except what He wills. His Throne extends over the heavens and the earth, and preserving them does not weary Him. He is the Most High, the Most Great} (Al-Baqarah: 255).

Narrated by Muslim.
O Allah, I ask You for forgiveness and well-being in this world and the Hereafter, O Allah, I ask You for forgiveness and well-being in my religion, my worldly life, my family, and my wealth.

The Importance and Virtues of Evening Remembrance of God
Reciting the evening supplications is considered one of the most important daily acts of worship that connect a Muslim to his Creator and grant him peace of mind and tranquility. These supplications serve as a fortress for the Muslim against the evils of the devils among humans and jinn, and protect him from harm and misfortune during the night. In addition, consistently reciting them brings blessings in one’s sustenance and time, and deepens one’s awareness of the blessings of Allah, the Exalted, and one’s gratitude for them. Remembering Allah revives the heart and dispels worries and sorrows, as He, the Exalted, says in His Holy Book: “It is in the remembrance of Allah that hearts find peace.” Therefore, upholding these remembrances serves as a spiritual shield and nourishment for faith.
Recommended Times and Circumstances for Reciting Evening Remembrances
- The time for evening dhikr begins after the ‘Asr prayer and continues until sunset; this is the best and most recommended time.
- It may be recited after the Maghrib prayer and up until the first third of the night by anyone who forgot it or was too busy to perform it at its original time.
- It is recommended to recite it with full attention, reflecting on the meanings of the words and appreciating their grandeur, rather than merely repeating them quickly with the tongue.
- It is preferable for a Muslim to be in a state of purity (having performed wudu') while reciting it, as an act of reverence toward Allah, the Exalted.
- It is recommended to choose a quiet place away from distractions and noise, so that Muslims can concentrate and pray with reverence.
A Summary of Evening Supplications
Consistently reciting the evening supplications serves as a fortress for the Muslim and brings peace to his heart at the end of the day, as it draws him closer to Allah, the Exalted, and protects him from all harm. Therefore, we should be careful to recite them thoughtfully and with reverence at their recommended times in order to attain their great reward and virtue. We ask Allah to help us remember and thank Him, and to accept our supplications and righteous deeds, as well as yours.
