❖ A Supplication for Protection from Satan at the Time of Death ❖
Authored by: Dr. Raza Abdullah Pasha (حفظه الله)
Is there any supplication that protects a person from the clutches of Satan at the time of death?
Yes, certainly!
It is narrated from Abu al-Yasar (رضي الله عنه) that the Noble Messenger ﷺ used to say:
"اللهم إني أعوذ بك من التردي والهرم والغرق والحريق، و أعوذ بك أن يتخبطني الشيطان عند الموت، وأعوذ بك أن أموت فى سبيلك مدبرا، وأعوذ بك أن أموت لديغا"
“O Allah! I seek refuge in You from dying by falling, from old age, from drowning, from burning, from being seized by Satan at the time of death, from dying while fleeing in Your path, and from dying due to a snake’s bite.”
✔ Seeking Allah's protection from specific causes of death reflects prophetic guidance on safeguarding both physical and spiritual well-being.
✔ The phrase "أن يتخبطني الشيطان عند الموت" specifically refers to Satan’s attempts to mislead at the moment of death—a time of extreme vulnerability.
Every believer is encouraged to regularly recite this du‘ā, especially as part of morning and evening remembrances, to seek protection from calamities and the deceptive attacks of Satan at life’s final moment.
