Sunnah Supplication to Keep Shayṭān Away

❖ Authored by: Dr. Rida ʿAbdullāh Pāshā (ḥafiẓahullāh)​



❖ Question:​


How can Shayṭān be kept away from me?

❖ Answer:​


Through the Sunnah supplication when leaving one’s home.


It is narrated from Sayyidunā Anas (RA) that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:


“Whoever says when leaving his home:

بِسْمِ اللهِ، تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَى اللهِ، وَلَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللهِ

‘In the name of Allah, I place my trust in Allah; there is no power and no might except with Allah’
,

it is said to him: You have been guided, you have been sufficed, and you have been protected,
and Shayṭān withdraws from him.”
(Ṣaḥīḥ al-Jāmiʿ al-Ṣaghīr, ḥadīth no. 2419; Sunan Abī Dāwūd with ʿAwn al-Maʿbūd 13/5073, 437; Sunan al-Tirmidhī 5/3486, ḥadīth no. 154)


❖ Summary​


✦ Reciting this powerful duʿāʾ upon leaving your home not only ensures divine guidance, protection, and sufficiency, but also causes Shayṭān to retreat and stay away from you.


✦ It is a prophetic way to fortify yourself spiritually at the start of your daily affairs.
