Chapter: If One Fears the Ruler
Al-Adab al-Mufrad 707 — If One Fears the Ruler
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا ثُمَامَةُ بْنُ عُقْبَةَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ الْحَارِثَ بْنَ سُوَيْدٍ ، يَقُولُ : قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ : إِذَا كَانَ عَلَى أَحَدِكُمْ إِمَامٌ يَخَافُ تَغَطْرُسَهُ أَوْ ظُلْمَهُ ، فَلْيَقُلِ : ”اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ السَّمَاوَاتِ السَّبْعِ ، وَرَبَّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ ، كُنْ لِي جَارًا مِنْ فُلانِ بْنِ فُلانٍ وَأَحْزَابِهِ مِنْ خَلائِقِكَ ، أَنْ يَفْرُطَ عَلَيَّ أَحَدٌ مِنْهُمْ أَوْ يَطْغَى ، عَزَّ جَارُكَ ، وَجَلَّ ثَنَاؤُكَ ، وَلا إِلَهَ إِلا أَنْتَ .“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him), he said: When any of you is subjected to someone whose oppression and arrogance he fears, he should recite this supplication: “O Allah! Lord of the seven heavens and Lord of the Mighty Throne! Protect me from so-and-so son of so-and-so and his group, who are among Your creation, lest any of them should wrong me or act arrogantly towards me. The one who seeks Your protection is honored, Your praise is very exalted, and there is no deity except You.”
