We have reached the morning and at this very time unto Allah belongs
all sovereignty, and all praise is for Allah. None has the right to be
worshipped except Allah, alone, without partner, to Him belongs all sovereignty and
praise and He is over all things omnipotent. My Lord, I ask you for the good of this
day and the good of what follows it and I take refuge in you from the evil of this
day and the evil of what follows it. My Lord, I take refuge in you from laziness
and senility. My Lord, I take refuge in you from torment in the Fire and punishment
in the grave.

keeping their eyes open gives a hint about what ‘weary’
means – do you know?
