Hadith 713
۞
1. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) narrates from his predecessors, who narrate from Amirul Momineen (a.s.), who narrates that the
Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said, “One who goes to a journey and recites the verse: Wa lammaa tawajjaha tilqaa-a madyana… till Allaahu a’laa maa naqoolu wakeel Allah will protect him from every wild animal, thief, oppressor and poisonous animals till he returns home. This deed keeps poverty and Satan away. Once Adam (a.s.) became seriously ill and began to fear. He complained about it to Jibraeel (a.s.) who told him, ‘Take a branch of a bitter almond and keep it on your chest’. He did so and was relieved from the fear by Allah. One who wants that the distance becomes short for him while traveling should carry a stick of bitter almond.”
