Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 35875 — What a man says when he sets out
٣٥٨٧٥ - حدثنا يحيى بن سعيد القطان عن ابن عجلان قال: حدثني عون بن عبد اللَّه أن رجلًا أتى ابن مسعود فقال: إني أريد سفرًا فأوصني، (قال) (١): إذا ⦗٥١٧⦘ توجهت فقل: بسم اللَّه، حسبي اللَّه، توكلت على اللَّه، فإنك إذا قلت: بسم اللَّه، قال: الملك هديت وإذا قلت حسبي اللَّه قال الملك: حفظت، وإذا قلت: توكلت على اللَّه، قال الملك: كفيت (٢).
It is narrated from Awn bin Abdullah that a man came to Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: I intend to go on a journey, so give me some counsel. Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: When you are about to set out, say: 'Bismillah, hasbiyallah, tawakkaltu ala Allah' (In the name of Allah, Allah is sufficient for me, I put my trust in Allah). When you say 'Bismillah', the angel says: You have been guided. When you say 'hasbiyallah', the angel calls out: You have been protected. And when you say 'tawakkaltu ala Allah', the angel calls out: He has become sufficient for you.
