Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger ﷺ as saying, "Learn the things which are made obligatory and the Qur’an, and teach them to people, for I shall die.” Tirmidhi transmitted it.

Anas told that when Allah's Messenger ﷺ went on an expedition he said, "O Allah, Thou art my aider and helper; by Thee I move, by Thee I attack, and by Thee I fight." Tirmidhi and Abu Dawud transmitted it.

Abu Musa told that when the Prophet (ﷺ) feared a people he said, "O Allah, we put Thee in front of them, and we seek refuge in Thee from their evils." Ahmad and Abu Dawud transmitted it.

Umm Salama told that when the Prophet (ﷺ) went out of his house he said, “In the name of Allah; I trust in Allah; O Allah, we seek refuge in Thee from slipping, or straying, or causing injustice, or suffering injustice, or doing wrong, or having wrong done to us." Ahmad, Tirmidhi and Nasa'i transmitted it, Tirmidhi saying this is a hasan sahih tradition, In the version of Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah, Umm Salama said that Allah's Messenger ﷺ never went out of her house without raising his eye to the sky and saying, “O Allah, I seek refuge in Thee lest I stray or lead others stray,* or cause injustice, or suffer injustice, or do wrong, or have wrong done to me.” *Some read as above, but others read 'or be led astray'.

Anas reported Allah's Messenger ﷺ as saying that when a man goes out of his house and says, "In the name of Allah; I trust in Allah; there is no might and no power but in Allah," the following will be said to him at that time, "You are guided, defended and protected." The devil will go far from him and another devil will say, "How can you deal with a man who has been guided, defended and protected?" Abu Dawud transmitted it, and Tirmidhi transmitted up to “the devil will go far from him."

Abu Malik al-Ash'ari reported Allah's Messenger ﷺ as saying that when a man goes into his house he should say, “O Allah, I ask Thee for good both when entering and when going out; in the name of Allah we have entered and in Allah our Lord do we trust.” He should then greet his family. Abu Dawud transmitted it.

Abu Huraira said that when the Prophet (ﷺ) congratulated* a man on his marriage he said, “Allah bless you, bless you both, and prosper your union.” *The verb used is raffa'a which originally meant saying to someone who had just been married, "may the marriage produce close union and sons." It is said that because this was a phrase used in pre-lslamic times, the Prophet (ﷺ) substituted for it the words used in this tradition. The verb thus develops simply the meaning of congratulating without in itself involving any particular formula. Ahmad, Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah transmitted it.

'Amr b. Shu'aib, on his father’s authority, said his grandfather told how the Prophet (ﷺ) said that when anyone of them married a woman, or bought a servant he should say, “O Allah, I ask Thee for the good in her and in the disposition Thou hast given her, and I seek refuge in Thee from the evil in her and in the disposition Thou hast given her.” When he buys a camel he should take hold of the top of its hump and say the same kind of thing. In a version regarding a woman and a servant it says he should take hold of her forelock and make supplication for a blessing. Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah transmitted it.

Abu Bakra reported Allah's Messenger ﷺ as saying that the supplications to be used by one who is distressed are, “O Allah, Thy mercy is what I hope for. Do not abandon me to myself for an instant, but put all my affairs in good order for me. There is no Allah but Thou.” Abu Dawud transmitted it.

Abu Sa'id al-Khudri told of a man who said to Allah's Messenger ﷺ that he was entangled in cares and debts. He replied, “Shall I not teach you words by which, when you say them, Allah will remove your care and settle your debt?” and when the man expressed a desire to hear them he told him to say morning and evening, “O Allah, I seek refuge in Thee from care and grief; I seek refuge in Thee from incapacity and slackness; I seek refuge in Thee from niggardliness and cowardice; I seek refuge in Thee from being overcome by debt and being put in subjection by men.” He said that when he did that Allah removed his care and settled his debt. Abu Dawud transmitted it.

‘Ali told of a slave who had made a contract with his master to pay for his freedom(1) coming to him and saying, “I am unable to fulfill my contract,* so give me help.” He suggested teaching him words he had been taught by Allah's Messenger ﷺ, which would be so effective that if he had a debt as large as a huge mountain Allah would pay it for him, telling him to say, “O Allah, grant me enough of what Thou makest lawful so that I may dispense with what Thou makest unlawful, and make me able by Thy grace to dispense with all but Thee.” 1. Mukatab. Although the term comes from the root meaning to write, the contract was not necessarily written. *Kitabati. While the word properly refers to something written, it is used for a contract whether written or not. Tirmidhi and Baihaqi, in [Kitab] ad-Da'awat al-kabir, transmitted it.
