Abu Salamah bin ‘AbdurRahman said: “I asked ‘Aishah:
‘With what did the Prophet start his prayer?’ She said: ‘When he got up to pray at night he would start his prayer with the words: (Allah, Lord of Jibr’Il, Mika’Il and Israfil, Creator of the heavens and the Earth, Knower of the unseen and the seen, You judge between Your slaves concerning that wherein they differ. Allah, Guide me to the disputed matters of truth, for You are the One Who guides to the Straight Path).” (Sahih)
