A Duaa to Protect yourself from ALL kinds of Harm

by Asma bint Shameem


Want to come under the protection of Allaah so that nothing harms you from the morning till the evening and from the evening until the morning, especially with Islaamophobia on the rise these days?


Then read on:


🍃 Abaan ibn ‘Uthmaan radhi Allaahu anhu said, narrating from ‘Uthmaan ibn ‘Affaan who said:


“I heard the Messenger of Allaah Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam say:


“Whoever says:


‎ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الَّذِي لَا يَضُرُّ مَعَ اسْمِهِ شَيْءٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَا فِي السَّمَاءِ وَهُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ


‘Bismillah illadhi la yadurru ma’a ismihi shay’un fi’l-ard wa la fi’l-sama’ wa huwa al-Samee’ ul-‘Aleem’


(In the name of Allaah with Whose name nothing can harm on earth or in heaven, and He is the All-Hearing, All-Knowing)’,


‎[اللہ کے نام سے(میں صبح یا شام اسی کی پناہ میں آتا ہوں)، اس کے نام سے زمین و آسمان میں کوئی چیز بھی نقصان نہیں دیتی، اور وہ خوب سننے والا اور جاننے والا ہے]


THREE times, will not be stricken with a sudden affliction until morning comes, and whoever says them when morning comes will not be stricken with a sudden affliction until evening comes.”

(Abu Dawood -Saheeh by al-Albaani)


The person narrating the above hadeeth was Abaan ibn ‘Uthmaan radhi Allaahu anhu and he was afflicted with paralysis.


So a man who was listening to him narrating this hadeeth, started staring at him and at his paralysis.


Abaan said to him:


“Why are you staring at me?

By Allaah, I did not tell a lie about ‘Uthmaan and ‘Uthmaan did not tell a lie about the Prophet Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam.

But the day which that (paralysis) befell me, I got angry and FORGOT to say it (meaning the above duaa)”!


Subhaan Allaah!

Abaan got ‘paralyzed’ the ‘very’ day he ’forgot’ to say this duaa!


Just goes to show the power of these beautiful words!


Alhamdulillaah, what a wonderful protection with the Will of Allaah.


And how important this duaa is to keep oneself from all kinds of harm!


🍃 Al-Qurtubi said:


“This is a saheeh report and true words that have been proven to us by experience.

Ever since I heard it I acted upon it, and NOTHING harmed me until I omitted to do it.

A scorpion stung me in Madeenah one night, and when I thought about it I realised that I had forgotten to seek refuge with Allaah by reciting these words.”

[al-Futoohaat ar-Rabbaanyyah by Ibn ‘Allaan (3/100)]


🍃 Dr ‘Abd ar-Razzaaq al-Badr said:


“This is one of the great adhkaar that the Muslim should recite every morning and evening, so that he may be protected thereby, by Allaah’s leave, against being struck by a sudden calamity or disastrous harm or the like.”


Actually, this beautiful Duaa is part of our daily adhkaar that we read every morning and evening, three times each.


Make this beautiful Duaa a part of your daily life and come into the Protection of Allaah, al-Hafeedh.


And Allaah knows best.
