Hadith 711

s, from evil of what knocks by the night and the day, from apparent and hidden, from the obstinate ones of Your-azwj creatures, the weak is his means with You-azwj. He cannot repel evil of anyone from himself, besides You-azwj, nor can anyone be a barrier from what good You-azwj Want, and all what is Intended and what is not Intended is in Your Grip. And You-azwj have Made tribes of the Jinn and the Satans-la. They can see us while we cannot see them, and I am scared of their plots, dreading, so Secure me from their evil and their prowess, by the right of Your-azwj Authority, O Mighty, O Invincible! ’
And when you fear an enemy, or a thief, then say, ‘O Seizer with the forelocks of His-azwj Creatures, and the Puller with it to His-azwj Power, the Implementer in it of His-azwj Decision, and its Creator, and Maker of His-azwj Decree to be prevalent, and all of them are weak at His-azwj Prevalence, and I trust in You-azwj, O my Master-azwj, at their strength at my weakness, and by Your-azwj Strength against the one who plots me, so Keep me safe from them! O Allah-azwj! If You-saww were to Solve between me and them, so that is what I am hoping for, and if You-azwj were to Yield me to them, they will change what is with me of Your-azwj bounties. O best of the Bestowers! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-asws, and do not Make the changing of Your-azwj bounties to be upon the hand of anyone besides You-azwj, and You-azwj don’t Change it either, for You-azwj can See that which is being intended with me, so Form a barrier between me and them by the right of what You-azwj will be Answering with, O Allah-azwj, Lord-azwj of the worlds! ’
When you want to descend in a place, then chose from spots of the earth which is their best in colour, and its softest of soil, and its most of grass, and do not descend on the back of the road, and interior of the valleys, for these are abodes of the snakes encroachment of lions. When you want to descend, then say when you descend, ‘O Allah-azwj! Disembark me in a Blessed landing, and you are the best of the Landers’ [23: 29]. Then pray two Cycles Salat, intending delegating drawing closer to Allah-azwj, and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! Grace us the good of this spot, and Shelter us from it’s evil! ’
And when you want to depart from the house, then pray two Cycles delegating as well, and supplicate to Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic for the Protection and the Guarding, and bid farewell to the place and its inhabitants, for there are inhabitants from the Angels for every place, and say, ‘The greetings be upon the Protecting Angels of Allah-azwj! The greetings be upon us and upon the righteous servants of Allah-azwj, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings! ’’[287]
