Hadith 849

Hadith.2416 - Ali ibn Asbat narrated from Imam Abu al-Hasan al-Ridha (as), who said
Imam (as) said to me: "When you leave your house, whether for travel or otherwise, say:
'In the name of Allah (swt), I believe in Allah (swt), I rely upon Allah (swt). Whatever Allah (swt) wills happens. There is no power and no strength except with Allah (swt).'
The devils will then confront you, but the angels will strike their faces and say:
'What path do you have over someone who has mentioned Allah (swt), believed in Him, relied upon Him, and said,
‘Whatever Allah (swt) wills happens. There is no power and no strength except with Allah (swt)?'"
2416 - وَ رَوَى عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَسْبَاطٍ عَنْ أَبِي اَلْحَسَنِ اَلرِّضَا عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ
قَالَ لِي : «إِذَا خَرَجْتَ مِنْ مَنْزِلِكَ فِي سَفَرٍ أَوْ حَضَرٍ فَقُلْ: بِسْمِ اَللَّهِ آمَنْتُ بِاللَّهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَى اَللَّهِ مَا شَاءَ اَللَّهُ وَ لاَ حَوْلَ وَ لاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاَّ بِاللَّهِ فَتَلَقَّاهُ اَلشَّيَاطِينُ فَتَضْرِبُ اَلْمَلاَئِكَةُ وُجُوهَهَا وَ تَقُولُ مَا سَبِيلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ وَ قَدْ سَمَّى اَللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ آمَنَ بِهِ وَ تَوَكَّلَ عَلَى اَللَّهِ وَ قَالَ مَا شَاءَ اَللَّهُ لاَ حَوْلَ وَ لاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاَّ بِاللَّهِ ».
