- (كان من دعائه - صلى الله عليه وسلم -: اللهمَّ إني أعوذُ بكَ من جارِ السُّوءِ، ومن زوجٍ تشيِّبني قبلَ المشيب، ومن ولد يكونُ عليّ رَبّاً، ومن مال يكونُ عليّ عذاباً، ومن خليلٍ ماكر عينَه تراني، وقلبُه يرعاني؛ إن رأى حسنة دفنها، وإذا رأى سيّئةً أذاعها) .
Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to supplicate: "O Allah! I seek refuge in You from an evil neighbor, and from a wife who makes me old before old age, and from children who become my masters, and from wealth that becomes a torment for me, and from a deceitful friend whose eyes watch me while his heart is plotting against me, who suppresses every good deed of mine and spreads every evil."
