belief in it and dies on the same day (before the evening), he will be one of
the dwellers of Jannah; and if anyone supplicates in these terms during the
night with firm belief in it and dies (before the morning), he will be one of the
dwellers of Jannah". [Bukhari]

Allah, there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer

Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep.
To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the
earth.
Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission?
He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after
them,
and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what
He wills.
His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth,
and their preservation tires Him not.
And He is the Most High, the Most Great.
