8. Anas
b. Mālik raḍiallāhu
‘anh said: The Messenger of Allāh ṣallallāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam said: “When a man leaves his home
and says:
بِسمِ
اللهِ، تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَى اللهِ، لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللهِ
In
the Name of Allāh. I put my trust in Allāh. There is no movement or power
except by Allāh.
It
will be said to this person: “This is sufficient for you. You have been guided,
sufficed, and protected. Then the shayṭān will leave him and say to another shayṭān:
How can you approach someone who has been guided, sufficed, and protected?!”12
Shaykh
‘Abd al-Razzāq al-‘Abbād ḥafidahullāh stated:
This
is a blessed statement of remembrance that is beneficial for the Muslim to say
whenever he leaves his home to conduct a worldly or religious matter. He does
so that he is protected while he is outed, assisted while he is completing his tasks,
and successful in what he intends to accomplish. The servant cannot subsist
without his Lord, even the blink of an eye.
He
is his protector, his assistor, the One to grant success and the One who
guides. The servant cannot obtain these
(guidance, protection, support, etc.) except that he turns to his Lord, the
Mighty and High, and seeks what he desires. For this reason, the Prophet ṣallallāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam
advised the person who leaves his home to say this blessed supplication in
order that he may guided on his path and so that his needs and wants are
fulfilled, in addition to him being protected from harm and dangers.13
