Sokar Uthne Ki Dua in Hadith
Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that when the Prophet ﷺ went to bed he would say, “Allahumma bismika amutu wa ahya”, and when he woke up he would say, “Alhamdu lillahil-lazi ahyana ba’da ma amatana wa ilayhin-nushur.” (Sahih al-Bukhari: 6324)
Sleep is called a lesser death in the Quran: Allah takes the souls at death, and the souls of those who have not died during their sleep; He keeps those for whom He has decreed death and sends the others back until an appointed time. (Surah Az-Zumar, 39:42) So waking up is a small resurrection, and the dua thanks Allah for returning the soul and reminds us of the real resurrection.

الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي عَافَانِي فِي جَسَدِي، وَرَدَّ عَلَيَّ رُوحِي، وَأَذِنَ لِي بِذِكْرِهِ
Roman English: Alhamdu lillahil-lazi ‘afani fi jasadi, wa radda ‘alayya ruhi, wa azina li bizikrih.
हिंदी: अल्हम्दु लिल्लाहिल्लज़ी आफ़ानी फ़ी जसदी, व रद्दा अलय्या रूही, व अज़िना ली बिज़िक्रिह। (सारी तारीफ़ अल्लाह के लिए जिसने मेरे बदन को आफ़ियत दी, मेरी रूह मुझे लौटा दी, और मुझे अपने ज़िक्र की इजाज़त दी।)
تمام تعریفیں اللہ کے لیے ہیں جس نے میرے بدن کو عافیت دی، میری روح مجھے لوٹا دی، اور مجھے اپنے ذکر کی اجازت دی۔
Translation: All praise is for Allah, who gave health to my body, returned my soul to me, and allowed me to remember Him. (Jami at-Tirmidhi: 3401)
Dua When Waking Up at Night (Raat Ko Aankh Khulne Ki Dua)
Ubadah ibn as-Samit (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet ﷺ said: whoever wakes at night and says this, then says “Allahummaghfir li” or makes any dua, it is answered, and if he makes wudu and prays, his prayer is accepted:
لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ، وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ، الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ، وَسُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ، وَلَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ، وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، وَلَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ
Roman English: La ilaha illallahu wahdahu la sharika lah, lahul-mulku wa lahul-hamd, wa huwa ‘ala kulli shay’in qadir. Alhamdu lillah, wa subhanallah, wa la ilaha illallah, wallahu akbar, wa la hawla wa la quwwata illa billah.
Translation: There is no god but Allah alone, without partner. His is the kingdom and His is the praise, and He has power over all things. Praise be to Allah, glory be to Allah, there is no god but Allah, Allah is the Greatest, and there is no power and no strength except with Allah. (Sahih al-Bukhari: 1154)
