refuge with Allah from the torment of the grave. He said: Seek refuge with Allah from turmoil, its visible and invisible
(aspects). They said: We seek refuge with Allah from turmoil and its visible and invisible aspects. He said: Seek refuge with
Allah from the turmoil of the Dajjal. They said: We seek refuge Allah from the turmoil of the Dajjal.
Sunan of Abu-Dawood
Hadith 1547 Narrated by
AbulYusr
The Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) used to supplicate: "O Allah, I seek refuge in Thee from my house falling on me, I
seek refuge in Thee from falling into an abyss, I seek refuge in Thee from drowning burning and decrepitude. I seek refuge in
Thee from the devil harming me at the time of my death, I seek refuge in Thee from dying in Thy path while retreating, and I
seek refuge in Thee from dying of the sting of a poisonous creature."
Fiqh-us-Sunnah
Fiqh 1.144a
Says an-Nawawi, "It is sunnah for anyone who is reciting the Qur'an, whether he is praying or not, to ask Allah for His
blessings when he comes to a verse of mercy. When he comes to a verse (describing) punishment, he should seek refuge in
Allah from Hellfire, punishment, evil, from what is hated, or he may say, "Allah, I ask You for well-being, etc." When he comes
to a verse that glorifies or exalts Allah, he should say, "Glory be to Allah," or "Blessed be Allah, the Lord of the Worlds," and
so on. Hudhaifah ibn al-Yaman is reported to have said, "I prayed with the Prophet, upon whom be peace, one night, and he
started reading al-Baqarah. I said to myself, 'He will bow after one hundred verses,' but he continued. Then I said, 'He will
complete it and bow,' but he moved to recite very slowly al 'Imran and then an-Nisa'. When he came to a verse glorifying
Allah, he would glorify Him. If he came to a verse that mentioned a request, he would request it. If he came to something that
(one should) seek refuge from, he would seek refuge." This was related by Muslim. Among the Shafiyyah, the glorifying,
requesting and seeking refuge should be done during the prayer and at other times. The imam, followers and one praying by
himself should all do so, for they are supplications that one should say, like 'ameen. It is preferred that when reading, "Is not
Allah the most conclusive of all judges?" / at-Tin:8 / one should say, "Certainly, and I am one of the witnesses to that. When
one reads, "Is not He (who does so) able to bring the dead to life? / al-Qiyamah:40 /, he should say, "Certainly, and I bear
witness (to it)." When one reads, "Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High," ( al-A'la: 1 ), he should say, "Glory to my
Lord, the Most High." That should be said during prayer and otherwise.

Dua (Supplication)
Hadith
Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'zZubayr al-Makki from Tawus al-Yamani from Abdullah ibn Abbas that the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, used to teach this dua in the same way that he would teach
them a sura of the Qur'an, "O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the torment of Jahannam, and I seek refuge in You from the
trial of the Dajjal, and I seek refuge in You from the trial of life and death."
Allahumma inniy audhu bika min adhabi jahannama, wa audhu bika min adhabi'l-qabri, wa audhu bika min fitnati'l-mahya wa
mamati.
REHEARSE:
3:58 - "This is what We rehearse unto thee of the Signs and the Message of Wisdom."
3:113 - Not all of them are alike: of the People of the book are a portion that stand (for the right);
they rehearse the signs of Allah all night long and then prostrate themselves in adoration. 437
437 In Islam we respect sincere faith and true righteousness in accordance with the Qur-An and Sunnah. This verse,
according to Commentators, refers to those People of the Book who eventually embraced Islam. (3.113)
6:151 - Say: "Come I will rehearse what Allah hath (really) prohibited you from": join not anything as
equal with Him; be good to your parents: kill not your children on a plea of want; We provide
sustenance for you and for them; come not nigh to shameful deeds whether open or secret;
take not life which Allah hath made sacred except by way of justice and law: thus doth He
command you that ye may learn wisdom. 976977
976 Instead of following Pagan superstitions, and being in constant terror of imaginary taboos and prohibitions, we should
study the true moral law, whose sanction is God's Law. The first step is that we should recognise that He is the One
and Only Lord and Cherisher. The mention of goodness to parents immediately afterwards suggests: (1) that God's
love of us and care for us may -on an infinitely higher plane- be understood by our ideal of parental love, which is
purely unselfish; (2) that our first duty among our fellow creatures is to our father and mother, whose love leads us to
the conception of divine love. Arising from that is the conception of our converse duties to our children. God provides
sustenance (material and spiritual) not only for us, but for them; hence any custom like the Pagan custom of
sacrificing children of Moloch stands condemned. Then come the moral prohibitions against lewdness and all
