عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ : كُنَّا نُسَافِرُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَإِذَا رَأَى قَرْيَةً يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَدْخُلَهَا قَالَ : " اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِيهَا - ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ - اللَّهُمَّ ارْزُقْنَا حَيَاهَا ، وَحَبِّبْنَا إِلَى أَهْلِهَا ، وَحَبِّبْ صَالِحِي أَهْلِهَا إِلَيْنَا " .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْأَوْسَطِ ، وَإِسْنَادُهُ جَيِّدٌ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: We used to travel with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). When he saw a town that he intended to enter, he would recite: 'Allahumma barik lana fiha' (O Allah, bless us in it (that is, the town).) He would recite this three times. 'Allahumma urzuqna hayaha, wa habbibna ila ahliha, wa habbib salihi ahliha ilayna' (O Allah, grant us its blessings, make us beloved to its inhabitants, and make the righteous among the inhabitants of this town beloved to us.)
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat, and its chain is jayyid (good).

وَعَنْ أَبِي لُبَابَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُنْذِرِ : أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - كَانَ إِذَا أَرَادَ دُخُولَ قَرْيَةٍ ، لَمْ يَدْخُلْهَا حَتَّى يَقُولَ : " اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ السَّمَاوَاتِ السَّبْعِ وَمَا أَظَلَّتْ ، وَرَبَّ الْأَرَضِينَ السَّبْعِ وَمَا أَقَلَّتْ ، وَرَبَّ الرِّيَاحِ وَمَا أَذْرَتْ ، وَرَبَّ الشَّيَاطِينِ وَمَا أَضَلَّتْ ، إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَهَا وَخَيْرَ مَا فِيهَا ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّهَا وَشَرِّ مَا فِيهَا " .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْأَوْسَطِ ، وَإِسْنَادُهُ حَسَنٌ .
Sayyiduna Abu Lubabah bin Abd al-Mundhir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) intended to enter a town, he would not enter it until he had recited:
'Allahumma rabbas-samawatis-sab'i wa ma azallat, wa rabbal-aradinas-sab'i wa ma aqallat, wa rabbar-riyahi wa ma adhrat, wa rabbash-shayatini wa ma adallat, inni as'aluka khayraha wa khayra ma fiha, wa a'udhu bika min sharriha wa sharri ma fiha'
(O Allah, Lord of the seven heavens and Lord of all that they shade; Lord of the seven earths and Lord of all that they carry; Lord of the winds and Lord of all that they blow upon; Lord of the devils and Lord of all whom they lead astray: I ask You for the good of it (that is, the town) and the good of whatever is in it, and I seek refuge in You from the evil of it (that is, the town) and the evil of whatever is in it.)
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat, and its chain is hasan (good).

وَعَنْ أَبِي مُغِيثِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو : أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - لَمَّا أَشْرَفَ عَلَى خَيْبَرَ قَالَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ : " قِفُوا " . ثُمَّ قَالَ : " اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا أَظَلَّتْ ، وَرَبَّ الْأَرَضِينَ وَمَا أَقْلَلْنَ ، وَرَبَّ الشَّيَاطِينِ وَمَا أَضْلَلْنَ ، وَرَبَّ الرِّيَاحِ وَمَا ذَرَيْنَ ، أَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَ هَذِهِ الْقَرْيَةِ وَخَيْرَ أَهْلِهَا ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّهَا وَشَرِّ أَهْلِهَا ، وَشَرِّ مَا فِيهَا . اقْدَمُوا بِسْمِ اللَّهِ " . وَكَانَ يَقُولُهَا لِكُلِّ قَرْيَةٍ يُرِيدُ يَدْخُلُهَا .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ رَاوٍ لَمْ يُسَمَّ ، وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ ثِقَاتٌ .
Sayyiduna Abu Mughith bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: When Khaybar came into view before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he said to his Companions: "Halt!" Then he made this supplication:
'Allahumma rabbas-samawati wa ma azallat, wa rabbal-aradina wa ma aqlalna, wa rabbash-shayatini wa ma adlalna, wa rabbar-riyahi wa ma dharayna, as'aluka khayra hadhihil-qaryati wa khayra ahliha, wa a'udhu bika min sharriha wa sharri ahliha wa sharri ma fiha'
(O Allah, Lord of the heavens and of all that they shade; Lord of the earths and of all that they carry; Lord of the devils and of all whom they lead astray; Lord of the winds and of all that they blow upon: I ask You for the good of this town and the good of its inhabitants, and I seek refuge in You from the evil of it (that is, the town), the evil of its inhabitants and the evil that is in it.)
(Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to his Companions:) "Now proceed in the name of Allah!" The narrator says: Whenever the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) intended to enter a town, he would recite these same words for it.
Al-Tabarani recorded it; its chain contains a narrator who is not named, and the remaining narrators of this report are thiqat (trustworthy).

وَعَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ : قُلْتُ لَهُ : مَا كَانَ يَخَافُ الْقَوْمُ إِذَا دَخَلُوا قَرْيَةً - أَوْ أَشْرَفُوا عَلَى قَرْيَةٍ - أَنْ يَقُولُوا : اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْ لَنَا فِيهَا رِزْقًا ، قَالَ : كَانُوا يَخَافُونَ جَوْرَ الْوُلَاةِ ، وَقُحُوطَ الْمَطَرِ .

Sayyiduna Abu Umamah bin Sahl (may Allah be pleased with him) reports this from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him): I asked him: What are people afraid of, that when they enter a town, or when a town comes into view before them, they recite: "O Allah, grant us provision in it"? Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) replied: People fear the oppression of rulers and the failure of the rains.
Al-Bazzar recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih, except for Qays bin Salim, whose case is different, and he is thiqah (trustworthy).
