  Narrated Aisha, Ummul Mu'minin:                             Shariq al-Hawzani and I came to Aisha (Allah be pleased with her) and  asked her: By which (prayer) the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) began when he  woke up at night? She replied: You asked me about a thing which no one  asked me before. When he woke up at night, he uttered: "Allah is Most  Great" ten times, and uttered "Praise be to Allah" ten times, and said  "Glory be to Allah and I begin with His praise" ten times, and said:  "Glory be to the King, the Most Holy" ten times, and asked Allah's  pardon ten times, and said: "There is no god but Allah" ten times, and  then said: "O Allah! I seek refuge in Thee from the strait of the Day of  resurrection," ten times. He then began the prayer.
