Hadith 3871

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الطَّنَافِسِيُّ , حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ , حَدَّثَنَا عُبَادَةُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ , حَدَّثَنَا جُبَيْرُ بْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ , قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ , يَقُولُ : لَمْ يَكُنْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَدَعُ هَؤُلَاءِ الدَّعَوَاتِ , حِينَ يُمْسِي وَحِينَ يُصْبِحُ : " اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ الْعَفْوَ وَالْعَافِيَةَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ , اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ الْعَفْوَ وَالْعَافِيَةَ فِي دِينِي وَدُنْيَايَ وَأَهْلِي وَمَالِي , اللَّهُمَّ اسْتُرْ عَوْرَاتِي , وَآمِنْ رَوْعَاتِي , وَاحْفَظْنِي مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيَّ , وَمِنْ خَلْفِي , وَعَنْ يَمِينِي , وَعَنْ شِمَالِي , وَمِنْ فَوْقِي , وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ أَنْ أُغْتَالَ مِنْ تَحْتِي " , قَالَ وَكِيعٌ يَعْنِي : الْخَسْفَ .
´It was narrated that Ibn 'Umar said:` "The Messenger of Allah (saas) never abandoned these supplications, every morning and evening: Allahumma inni as'alukal-'afwa wal-'afiyah fid-dunya wal-akhirah. Allahumma inni as'alukal-'afwa wal-'afiyah fi dini wa dunyaya wa ahli wa mali. Allahum-mastur 'awrati, wa amin raw'ati wahfazni min bayni yadayya, wa min khalfi, wa 'an yamini wa 'an shimali, wa min fawqi, wa 'audhu bika an ughtala min tahti (O Allah, I ask You for forgiveness and well-being in this world and in the Hereafter. O Allah, I ask You for forgiveness and well-being in my religious and my worldly affairs. O Allah, conceal my faults, calm my fears, and protect me from before me and behind me, from my right and my left, and from above me, and I seek refuge in You from being taken unaware from beneath me)." Waki' (one of the narrators, explaining) said: "Meaning Al-Khasf (disgrace)."

Takhrij:
«أخرجه النسائي، الاستعاذة، باب الاستعاذة من الخسف، حديث:5531 مختصرًا جدًا، وابن ماجه، الدعاء، حديث:3871، الحاكم:1 /517، 518 وصححه، ووافقه الذهبي.»©Explanation:
➊ In this hadith, refuge is sought with Allah from six directions, because a person is surrounded by his enemies from all four sides: front, back, right, and left. These enemies are both from among humans and from among the jinn and devils.
And from above, there is the danger of Allah’s punishments.
And specifically, refuge is sought from being swallowed up by the earth.
➋ In this, there is a supplication for the safety of one’s religion, protection from sins, safety in worldly matters, safety for family and dependents, safety of wealth and property, as well as protection from apparent and hidden calamities and misfortunes, and protection from illnesses and hardships. For He alone is the All-Powerful; unless He bestows His grace, a person can neither be safe from his enemies nor protected from sins.
