وَعَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ: قَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى أَصْبَحَ بِآيَةٍ وَالْآيَةُ: (إِنْ تُعَذِّبْهُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ عِبَادُكَ وَإِنْ تَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ فَإنَّك أَنْت الْعَزِيز الْحَكِيم) رَوَاهُ النَّسَائِيّ وَابْن مَاجَه

Abu Dharr said that God’s Messenger kept awake during the night till morning reciting one verse, which was, “If You punishest them they are Your servants; and if You forgivest them You are the Mighty, the Wise”(Al-Qur’an; 5:118). Nasa’i and Ibn Majah transmitted it.
