Sahih al-Bukhari 5147 (Book 69, Hadith 11)
heard that the Prophet (ﷺ) had received a few slave girls. But (when she came there) she did not find him,
so she mentioned her problem to `Aisha. When the Prophet (ﷺ) came, `Aisha informed him about that.
`Ali added, “So the Prophet (ﷺ) came to us when we had gone to bed. We wanted to get up (on his arrival)
but he said, ‘Stay where you are.” Then he came and sat between me and her and I felt the coldness of
his feet on my `Abdomen. He said, “Shall I direct you to something better than what you have
requested? When you go to bed say ‘Subhan Allah’ thirty-three times, ‘Al hamduli l-lah’ thirty three
times, and Allahu Akbar’ thirty four times, for that is better for you than a servant.”
