On entering the evening
We have entered the evening, and the dominion belongs to Allah. Praise is for Allah. There is no god but Allah alone, with no partner. His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He is able to do all things. My Lord, I ask You for the good of this night and the good of what comes after it, and I seek refuge in You from the evil of this night and the evil of what comes after it. My Lord, I seek refuge in You from laziness and the wretchedness of old age. My Lord, I seek refuge in You from punishment in the Fire and punishment in the grave.
Recite as part of your evening adhkar, from the late afternoon into the evening.

Rabbi as'aluka khayra ma fi hadhihi-l-laylati wa khayra ma ba'daha, wa a'udhu bika min sharri ma fi hadhihi-l-laylati wa sharri ma ba'daha. Rabbi a'udhu bika mina-l-kasali wa su'i-l-kibar. Rabbi a'udhu bika min 'adhabin fi-n-nar wa 'adhabin fi-l-qabr.
