8. Anas b. Mālik raḍiallāhu anh said: The Messenger of Allāh allallāhu 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 shayān will leave him and say to another shayān: How can you approach someone who has been guided, sufficed, and protected?!12

Shaykh ‘Abd al-Razzāq al-‘Abbād afidahullāh 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 allallāhu 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
