Hadith: 1

«عن بريدة الأسلمي رضى الله عنه قال: سمع النبى صلى الله عليه وسلم رجلا يدعو وهو يقول: ”اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَنِّي أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ اللَّهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ، الأَحَدُ الصَّمَدُ، الَّذِي لَمْ يَلِدْ، وَلَمْ يُولَدْ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ“ The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: “By the One in Whose Hand is my soul, indeed he asked Allah by His Greatest Name, which when invoked He responds, and when asked by it He gives.”

Al-Albani has declared it authentic.
Hazrat Buraydah Aslami (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) heard a man praying to Allah, saying: اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَنِّي أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ اللَّهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ، الأَحَدُ الصَّمَدُ، الَّذِي لَمْ يَلِدْ، وَلَمْ يُولَدْ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ “O Allah! I ask You by my testimony of faith and witness that You are my Allah, that none is worthy of worship, obedience, or fulfilling needs except You. You are the One and Only, the entire universe is in need of You, but You are not in need of anyone. You have no offspring, nor are You the offspring of anyone, and there is none like You nor can there be.”
Then the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: “By the One in Whose Hand is my soul, indeed this servant has asked Allah by means of that Greatest Name by which whoever asks Allah is granted.”

Hadith: 2

«وعن شداد بن أوس رضى الله عنه عن النبى صلى الله عليه وسلم: سيد الاستغفار أن يقول: «اللهم أنت ربي لا إله إلا أنت خلقتني وأنا عبدك وأنا على عهدك ووعدك ما استطعت أعوذ بك من شر ما صنعت أبوء لك بنعمتك علي وأبوء لك بذنبي فاغفر لي فإنه لا يغفر الذنوب إلا أنت» قال: ومن قالها من النهار موقنا بها فمات من يومه قبل أن يمسي فهو من أهل الجنة ومن قالها من الليل وهو موقن بها فمات قبل أن يصبح فهو من أهل الجنة»

Hazrat Shaddad bin Aws رضي الله عنه narrates that the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said: Among all the words of seeking forgiveness from Allah, this supplication is the chief; recite it: اللهم أنت ربي لا إله إلا أنت خلقتني وأنا عبدك وأنا على عهدك ووعدك ما استطعت أعوذ بك من شر ما صنعت أبوء لك بنعمتك على وأبوء لك بذنبي فاغفر لي فإنه لا يغفر الذنوب إلا أنت O Allah! You are my Lord, and besides You, there is none worthy of worship, obedience, and fulfillment of needs for me. O Allah! You alone created me, and I am Your servant only, and I uphold the covenant of servitude and lordship with You to the best of my ability, yet O Allah, I have committed many sins; I seek refuge in You from their evil. O Allah! I also acknowledge that You have blessed me with countless favors, and I admit that despite this, I have disobeyed You greatly. O Allah! I seek Your forgiveness and pardon me, for if You do not forgive me, then there is no other door from which I can obtain forgiveness for my sins. The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said: Whoever recites this supplication during the day with complete belief in the mentioned beliefs and dies before the night of that day, he will enter Paradise; and whoever recites this supplication during the night with complete belief in the mentioned beliefs and dies before the morning of that night, he will be among the people of Paradise.

I seek refuge in You from losing the strength to perform any task and becoming incapable of doing it, and I seek refuge from laziness and negligence in obeying and complying with You even to the slightest degree. I also seek refuge in You from showing cowardice when the opportunity arises to stand firm for Your religion, and from stinginess in what You have bestowed upon me, and from such an old age in which I become dependent on others. I seek refuge from the punishment of the grave as well. O Allah! Grant my soul the blessing of piety and purify it from all kinds of faults and shortcomings, for none purifies the soul better than You, as You are its Owner and Helper. O Allah! I seek refuge from knowledge that does not benefit me, from a heart that does not fear disobedience to You nor has feelings of obedience, from a greedy self that never feels satisfied with worldly wealth, and from a state of bad conduct in which if I supplicate, You do not honor my supplication with acceptance.”

I acknowledge every kind of blessing and reserve the right of gratitude for it solely for Your Noble Self, and I thank You immensely. An acknowledgment free from hypocrisy and ostentation. Filled with every kind of goodness and blessing. This food that I have eaten was sufficient for the moment but not sufficient forever, so grant me provision whenever I need it in the future, for I am always in need of You. Neither should this food be my last meal in life, nor should it be such that after it I am no longer in need of You.

I leave my house taking Your name, relying and trusting in You in all my affairs, with the belief that without Your help no good or benefit can be attained, nor can any evil or harm be avoided.

«عن عمر بن الخطاب رضي الله عنه قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: من قال حين يدخل السوق: ”لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ يُحْيِي وَيُمِيتُ وَهُوَ حَيٌّ لَا يَمُوتُ بِيَدِهِ الْخَيْرُ كُلُّهُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ“ Allah has written for him one million good deeds, erased one million sins from him, and built for him a house in Paradise.”

Muhaddith Albani has graded it as Hasan.
Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: “Whoever says these words upon entering the market: ”لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ يُحْيِي وَيُمِيتُ وَهُوَ حَيٌّ لَا يَمُوتُ بِيَدِهِ الْخَيْرُ كُلُّهُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ“ ‘I affirm and acknowledge with complete certainty that worship, obedience, and fulfillment of needs are due only to Allah alone, and that there is no partner with Him in creating this universe and then managing its entire system. He alone is the owner of everything in this universe. He alone is the giver of all kinds of blessings and is worthy of all praise and glorification. He alone creates everything and He alone causes death. He is the Ever-Living Being who never dies. And I also acknowledge that all kinds of goodness and blessings are only in His hands. He is capable of everything; nothing is beyond His power, ownership, and control.’ In return, Allah, the Lord of Glory, records one million good deeds for him in his book of deeds, forgives one million of his sins, and builds for him a beautiful house in Paradise.”

Hadith: 27

عن على رضي الله عنه قال: أن مكاتبا جاءه فقال: إني قد عجزت عن مكاتبتي فأعني، قال: ألا أعلمك كلمات علمنيهن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم لو كان عليك مثل جبل صير دينا أداه الله عنك؟ قال: قل: ”اللَّهُمَّ اكْفِنِي بِحَلَالِكَ عَنْ حَرَامِكَ، وَأَغْنِنِي بِفَضْلِكَ عَمَّنْ سِوَاكَ“

Al-Muhaddith al-Bani has graded it as Hasan.
Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that a mukatab slave (one who had contracted with his master to buy his freedom) came to him and said: The amount agreed upon between me and my master for my freedom is not being fully paid. So please help me financially. Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Shall I not teach you the words that the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم taught me, and these are the words by reciting which, even if you have a debt as big as a mountain, Allah Almighty will grant you the power to repay it? Then Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) told the slave to recite this prayer: ”اللَّهُمَّ اكْفِنِي بِحَلَالِكَ عَنْ حَرَامِكَ، وَأَغْنِنِي بِفَضْلِكَ عَمَّنْ سِوَاكَ“ O Allah! Grant me so much lawful wealth that I do not even need to think about the unlawful. And bestow upon me such favor and grace that I become independent of everyone except You.”

Hadith: 28

عن ابن عمر أن النبى صلى الله عليه وسلم كان إذا استوى على بعيره خارجا إلى سفر كبر ثلاثا ثم قال: ”سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي سَخَّرَ لَنَا هَذَا، وَمَا كُنَّا لَهُ مُقْرِنِينَ، وَإِنَّا إِلَى رَبِّنَا لَمُنْقَلِبُون، اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّا نَسْأَلُكَ فِي سَفَرِنَا هَذَا الْبِرَّ وَالتَّقْوَى، وَمِنَ الْعَمَلِ مَا تَرْضَى، اللَّهُمَّ هَوِّنْ عَلَيْنَا سَفَرَنَا هَذَا، وَاطْوِ عَنْا بُعْدَهُ، اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ الصَّاحِبُ فِي السَّفَرِ وَالْخَلِيفَةُ فِي الْأَهْلِ ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ وَعْثَاءِ السَّفَرِ، وَكَآبَةِ الْمَنْظَرِ، وَسُوءِ الْمُنْقَلَبِ فِي الْمَالِ وَالْأَهْلِ“

Hazrat Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) narrates that when the Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم would set out on a journey, he would sit on the mount and say الله أكبر three times, then recite this supplication: ”سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي سَخَّرَ لَنَا هَذَا، وَمَا كُنَّا لَهُ مُقْرِنِينَ، وَإِنَّا إِلَى رَبِّنَا لَمُنْقَلِبُون، اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّا نَسْأَلُكَ فِي سَفَرِنَا هَذَا الْبِرَّ وَالتَّقْوَى، وَمِنَ الْعَمَلِ مَا تَرْضَى، اللَّهُمَّ هَوِّنْ عَلَيْنَا سَفَرَنَا هَذَا، وَاطْوِ عَنْا بُعْدَهُ، اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ الصَّاحِبُ فِي السَّفَرِ وَالْخَلِيفَةُ فِي الْأَهْلِ ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ وَعْثَاءِ السَّفَرِ، وَكَآبَةِ الْمَنْظَرِ، وَسُوءِ الْمُنْقَلَبِ فِي الْمَالِ وَالْأَهْلِ“ “The One who has made this mount subservient and obedient for me is free from all defects, faults, and weaknesses. If He had not made it subservient, I would not have been able to approach it. And all of us are surely returning to our Lord. O Allah! We seek from You every kind of goodness and piety in this journey. And we seek the ability to perform deeds that are pleasing to You. O Allah, make this journey easy for us and shorten its distances so that they are not felt. O Allah! You are our companion in this journey and the guardian of our family and possessions. O Allah, we seek refuge in You from the hardships and difficulties of travel, and from encountering any painful situation during the journey. And if upon returning home we find or hear of any distressing conditions concerning our wealth or family, we also seek refuge in You from that.”

Hadith: 29

عن ابن عمر رضي الله عنه قال: كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يودعنا فيقول: ”أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللَّهَ دِينَكَ وَأَمَانَتَكَ وَآخِرَ عَمَلِكَ“

Al-Muhaddith Al-Albani has declared it authentic.
Hazrat Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) narrates that whenever the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم was bidding farewell to someone who was going on a journey, he would say these words: ”أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللَّهَ دِينَكَ وَأَمَانَتَكَ وَآخِرَ عَمَلِكَ“ “I entrust you, along with your religion, trust, and the outcome of your deeds, to Allah.”

Hadith: 30

«عن خولة رضي الله عنها قالت: سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول: من نزل منزلا ثم قال: ”أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ“ “Nothing will harm him until he departs from his place.”

Hazrat Khawlah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that she heard the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم say: “If a person stays at a place and says: ”أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ“ O Allah! By Your attribute that Your decrees are very firm, protect me from the evil of Your creation.” Then no harm will befall that person as long as he remains there.”

Hadith: 31

عن أنس رضي الله عنه قال: أن النبى صلى الله عليه وسلم لما أشرف على المدينة قال: ”آيِبُونَ تَائِبُونَ عَابِدُونَ لِرَبِّنَا حَامِدُونَ“

Hadith: 33

عن عثمان بن أبى العاص الثقفي رضي الله عنه قال: أنه شكا إلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم وجعا يجده فى جسده منذ أسلم، فقال له رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: ضع يدك على الذى تألم من جسدك وقل: باسم الله ثلاثا، وقل سبع مرات: ”أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ، وَقُدْرَتِهِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا أَجِدُ وَأُحَاذِرُ“

Hazrat Uthman bin Abi Al-As Thaqafi (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that I had a pain in my body which I mentioned before the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم, and he said: “Place your hand on the place where the pain is and say ”باسم الله“ three times, then say seven times: ”أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ، وَقُدْرَتِهِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا أَجِدُ وَأُحَاذِرُ“ I seek refuge in my powerful Allah from this pain which I feel in my body.”

Muhaddith al-Albani has graded it as Hasan.
Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said: “Whoever sees a person whom Allah has afflicted with a disease or calamity and says these words: ”الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي عَافَانِي مِمَّا ابْتَلَاكَ بِهِ وَفَضَّلَنِي عَلَى كَثِيرٍ مِمَّنْ خَلَقَ تَفْضِيلًا“ I am extremely grateful to my Allah who has protected me from the affliction that you are afflicted with. Indeed, He has kept me in a better condition than many of His creation. Then Allah will never afflict that person with that trial or disease.”

Hadith: 35

عن أنس رضي الله عنه قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: لا يتمنين أحدكم الموت لضر نزل به، فإن كان لا بد متمنيا للموت فليقل: ”اللَّهُمَّ أَحْيِنِي مَا كَانَتِ الْحَيَاةُ خَيْرًا لِي، وَتَوَفَّنِي إِذَا عَلِمْتَ الْوَفَاةَ خَيْرًا لِي“

Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said: “None of you should wish for death because of worldly difficulties, and if the hardship becomes unbearable, then he should say: ”اللَّهُمَّ أَحْيِنِي مَا كَانَتِ الْحَيَاةُ خَيْرًا لِي، وَتَوَفَّنِي إِذَا عَلِمْتَ الْوَفَاةَ خَيْرًا لِي“ O Allah! If living is better for me, then keep me alive, and if death is better for me, then cause me to die.”

O moon, our Lord and your Lord is Allah alone.

Hadith: 40

«عن جابر رضي الله عنه قال: كان النبى صلى الله عليه وسلم يعلمنا الاستخارة فى الأمور كلها كالسورة من القرآن، إذا هم بالأمر فليركع ركعتين، ثم يقول ”اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْتَخِيرُكَ بِعِلْمِكَ، وَأَسْتَقْدِرُكَ بِقُدْرَتِكَ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ مِنْ فَضْلِكَ الْعَظِيمِ، فَإِنَّكَ تَقْدِرُ وَلَا أَقْدِرُ، وَتَعْلَمُ وَلَا أَعْلَمُ، وَأَنْتَ عَلَّامُ الْغُيُوبِ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ خَيْرٌ لِي فِي دِينِي وَمَعَاشِي وَعَاقِبَةِ أَمْرِي، أَوْ قَالَ فِي عَاجِلِ أَمْرِي، وَآجِلِهِ، فَاقْدُرْهُ لِي، وَإِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ شَرٌّ لِي فِي دِينِي وَمَعَاشِي وَعَاقِبَةِ أَمْرِي، أَوْ قَالَ فِي عَاجِلِ أَمْرِي، وَآجِلِهِ، فَاصْرِفْهُ عَنِّي وَاصْرِفْنِي عَنْهُ، وَاقْدُرْ لِي الْخَيْرَ حَيْثُ كَانَ، ثُمَّ رَضِّنِي بِهِ“ and calls upon his need»

Hazrat Jabir رضي الله عنه narrates that the Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم used to teach us Istikhara in every matter with the same care and attention as he taught us the chapters of the Holy Quran. He said: “Whenever any one of you intends to do an important task, he should first pray two units of Nafl prayer, then say to his Allah: ”اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْتَخِيرُكَ بِعِلْمِكَ، وَأَسْتَقْدِرُكَ بِقُدْرَتِكَ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ مِنْ فَضْلِكَ الْعَظِيمِ، فَإِنَّكَ تَقْدِرُ وَلَا أَقْدِرُ، وَتَعْلَمُ وَلَا أَعْلَمُ، وَأَنْتَ عَلَّامُ الْغُيُوبِ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ خَيْرٌ لِي فِي دِينِي وَمَعَاشِي وَعَاقِبَةِ أَمْرِي، أَوْ قَالَ فِي عَاجِلِ أَمْرِي، وَآجِلِهِ، فَاقْدُرْهُ لِي، وَإِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ شَرٌّ لِي فِي دِينِي وَمَعَاشِي وَعَاقِبَةِ أَمْرِي، أَوْ قَالَ فِي عَاجِلِ أَمْرِي، وَآجِلِهِ، فَاصْرِفْهُ عَنِّي وَاصْرِفْنِي عَنْهُ، وَاقْدُرْ لِي الْخَيْرَ حَيْثُ كَانَ، ثُمَّ رَضِّنِي بِهِ“ O Allah! Through Your knowledge, I want to know whether this task will be better for me or not, and then with Your power, I intend to do this task. And I seek from You Your grace and mercy, for Your grace has no limit or end. O Allah! You are capable of everything, and I can do nothing without Your help. O Allah! You know everything, and I cannot know anything without Your informing me. O Allah! You know even the deepest hidden things very well. O Allah! If according to Your knowledge this task is better for me in my religion, my worldly affairs, and my end, both now and later, then make this task my destiny and portion. And if this task is harmful to me in my religion, my worldly affairs, and my end, both now and later, then keep me away from this task and keep this task away from me. Then make whatever good is for me my destiny and portion. And then make my heart fully satisfied and content with this task.”

Hadith: 41

عن أبى هريرة رضي الله عنه قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: من جلس فى مجلس فكثر فيه لغطه، فقال قبل أن يقوم من مجلسه ذلك: ”سُبْحَانَكَ اللَّهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْكَ، اِلَّا غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا كَانَ فِي مَجْلِسِهِ ذَلِكَ“

Al-Muhaddith Al-Albani has declared it authentic.
Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said: “Whoever sits in a gathering in which many vain talks occur, before leaving that gathering he should say: O my Allah! I firmly believe that ”سُبْحَانَكَ اللَّهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْكَ، اِلَّا غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا كَانَ فِي مَجْلِسِهِ ذَلِكَ“ You are free from every defect, flaw, and weakness. I also sincerely acknowledge that all praise and commendation belong only to You and no one else. And I sincerely testify that none besides You is worthy of worship, obedience, and fulfilling needs. O Allah! I seek Your forgiveness, forgive me. And I repent, accept my repentance.” Then Allah Almighty forgives all the sins that occurred in that gathering.”
