Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 931 — from Sayyiduna Khalid bin al-Walid that he
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ الْمَقْدِسِيُّ الْخَيَّاطُ قَالَ : نَا عَمْرُو بْنُ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ قَالَ : نَا أَبُو مُعَيْدٍ حَفْصُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْأَيْلِيِّ ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - عَنْ أَهَاوِيلَ ، يَرَاهَا بِاللَّيْلِ ، حَالَتْ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ صَلَاةِ اللَّيْلِ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : يَا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ ، أَلَا أُعَلِّمُكَ كَلِمَاتٍ تَقُولُهُنَّ ، لَا تَقُولُهُنَّ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ حَتَّى يُذْهِبَ اللهُ ذَلِكَ عَنْكَ ؟ I " قَالَ : بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَأُمِّي ، فَإِنَّمَا شَكَوْتُ ذَاكَ إِلَيْكَ رَجَاءَ هَذَا مِنْكَ ، قَالَ : I " قُلْ : أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللهِ التَّامَّةِ مِنْ غَضَبِهِ ، وَعِقَابِهِ ، وَشَرِّ عِبَادِهِ ، وَمِنْ هَمَزَاتِ الشَّيَاطِينِ ، وَأَنْ يَحْضُرُونَ I " .
قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ : فَلَمْ أَلْبَثْ إِلَّا لَيَالِيَ يَسِيرَةً حَتَّى جَاءَ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَأُمِّي ، وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ ، مَا أَتْمَمْتُ الْكَلِمَاتِ الَّتِي عَلَّمْتَنِي ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ حَتَّى أَذْهَبَ اللهُ عَنِّي مَا كُنْتُ أَجِدُ ، مَا أُبَالِي لَوْ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَسَدٍ فِي حَبْسِهِ بِلَيْلٍ .

Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from Sayyiduna Khalid bin al-Walid (may Allah be pleased with him) that he mentioned to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) the terrifying visions he used to see at night, because of which he could not offer the night prayer. So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Khalid bin al-Walid, shall I not teach you words which you will not have said three times before Allah Almighty removes that state from you?" He said: "Of course, O Messenger of Allah, may my father and mother be ransomed for you; I complained to you about this only in the hope of this." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Say: 'A'udhu bi kalimatillahit-tammati min ghadabihi wa iqabihi wa sharri ibadihi wa min hamazatish-shayatini wa an yahdurun' (I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah from His anger, His punishment, the evil of His servants, the whisperings of the devils, and from their coming to me)."
The Mother of the Believers, Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), said: Only a few nights had passed when Sayyiduna Khalid bin al-Walid (may Allah be pleased with him) came and said: "O Messenger of Allah, may my father and mother be ransomed for you, by the One who sent you with the truth, I had not yet completed three times the words you taught me before Allah Almighty removed from me what I used to feel. Now I would not care even if I entered a lion's cage at night."
