What a man is instructed to do when he goes in to his wife

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When one of you intends to go to his wife, let him recite this supplication: In the name of Allah. O Allah, protect us from Satan, and protect from Satan the offspring You grant us. If, after reciting this supplication, Allah grants offspring, it will remain safe from the influences of Satan."

Abu Sa'id, the freed slave of Abu Usayd, said: When I married, I was a slave. I invited a group of the Companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), among them Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud, Sayyiduna Abu Dharr and Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with them). When the prayer was called, Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) was about to step forward, but the others said to him: "Stay back." He said: "Is that so?" They said: "Yes." So I stepped forward and led them in prayer, even though I was a slave. Then they taught me and said: "When your wife comes to you, pray two rak'ahs, then ask Allah Almighty for the good of what has come to you and seek refuge in Him from its evil. Then occupy yourself with your wife."

Alqamah said: When Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) had intercourse with his wife and ejaculated, he would recite this supplication: "O Allah, do not give Satan power over the offspring You grant us."

Umm Musa said: In Madinah, when a girl was sent off to her husband, she would first be brought to the mosque and pray two rak'ahs there, and she would be brought to the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) so that they would supplicate for her.
Abu Bakr (Ibn Abi Shaybah) said: He (the narrator) said: I think she said "two rak'ahs".

Shaqiq said: A man named Abu Jarir came to Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: "I have married a young girl, and I fear that she may come to dislike me." Sayyiduna Abdullah said: "Love is from Allah and aversion is from Satan. Satan wants to make what Allah Almighty has made lawful for you hateful to you. When she comes to you, tell her to pray two rak'ahs behind you."
