Riyad al-SalihinAl-Nawawi

the feet of the idolaters while we were in the cave, and they were standing right above our heads. I said, “O Messenger of Allah, if one of them were to look down at the spot beneath his feet, he would surely see us.” He replied, “Abū Bakr, what do you think of two men when Allah is the third with them?” (1) Agreed upon.

83 – The Ninth: The Mother of the Believers Umm Salamah—Hind bint Abī Umayyah al-Makhzūmiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her)—reported that whenever the Prophet ﷺ left his house he would say, “In the name of Allah; I have placed my trust in Allah. O Allah, I seek refuge in You from straying or being led astray, from slipping or being caused to slip, from wronging or being wronged, and from acting ignorantly or having ignorance shown to me.” An authentic ḥadīth narrated by Abū Dāwūd, al-Tirmidhī and others with sound chains (3). Al-Tirmidhī said, “A ḥadīth that is ḥasan ṣaḥīḥ.” This wording is that of Abū Dāwūd. (2)

84 – The Tenth: Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Whoever says—when he leaves his house—‘In the name of Allah; I have placed my trust in Allah; there is no ability and no power except with Allah,’ will be told, ‘You have been guided, protected, and safeguarded,’ and Satan will withdraw from him.” Related by Abū Dāwūd, al-Tirmidhī, al-Nasāʾī and others. Al-Tirmidhī graded it ḥasan. Abū Dāwūd added: “Satan then says to another devil, ‘How can you deal with a man who has been guided, protected, and safeguarded?’”

85 – Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) also related: In the Prophet’s time ﷺ there were two brothers; one of them used to attend the Prophet ﷺ, while the other earned a living. The working brother complained about his sibling to the Prophet ﷺ, who said, “Perhaps you are being provided for because of him.” Reported by al-Tirmidhī with a sound chain meeting Muslim’s criterion.

yah tarif: to earn a livelihood and seek provision.

(1) That is: through divine victory, assistance, and protection—could any harm ever befall them? (2) That is, “by my own self.” The phrase “or I go astray” means: unless someone else leads me astray. (3) I add: this points to one of the hadith’s transmitters around whom all the chains converge; see the Introduction, no. (2). – N

أَقْدَامَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ وَنَحْنُ فِي الْغَارِ وَهُمْ عَلَى رُؤُوسِنَا فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَوْ أَنَّ أَحَدَهُمْ نَظَرَ تَحْتَ قَدَمَيْهِ لَأَبْصَرَنَا . فَقَالَ : « مَا ظَنُّكَ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ بِاثْنَيْنِ اللَّهُ ثَالِثُهُمَا » (١) متفق عليه . ٨٣ - التاسع : عن أم المؤمنين أم سلمة واسمها هند بنت أبي أمية المخزومية رضي الله عنها أن النبي ﷺ كان إذا خرج من بيته ، قال : « بِسْمِ اللَّهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَى اللَّهِ ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ أَنْ أَضِلَّ (٢) أَوْ أُضَلَّ . أَوْ أَزِلَّ أَوْ أُزَلَّ ، أَوْ أَظْلِمَ أَوْ أُظْلَمَ ، أَوْ أَجْهَلَ أَوْ يُجْهَلَ عَلَيَّ » . حديث صحيح ، رواه أبو داود ، والترمذي وغيرهما بأسانيد صحيحة (٣) قال الترمذي : حديث حسن صحيح وهذا لفظ أبي داود . ٨٤ - العاشر : عن أنس رضي الله عنه قال : قال رسول الله ﷺ : « مَنْ قَالَ - يَعْنِي إِذَا خَرَجَ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ - : بِسْمِ اللَّهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَى اللَّهِ ، وَلَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ ، يُقَالُ لَهُ : هُدِيتَ وَكُفِيتَ وَوُقِيتَ ، وَتَنَحَّى عَنْهُ الشَّيْطَانُ » رواه أبو داود والترمذي ، والنسائي وغيرهم . وقال الترمذي : حديث حسن ، زاد أبو داود : « فَيَقُولُ - يَعْنِي الشَّيْطَانَ - لِشَيْطَانٍ آخَرَ : كَيْفَ لَكَ بِرَجُلٍ قَدْ هُدِيَ وَكُفِيَ وَوُقِيَ ؟ » . ٨٥ - وعن أنس رضي الله عنه قال : كان أخوان على عهد النبي ﷺ وكان أحدهما يأتي النبي ﷺ والآخر يحترف ، فشكا المحترف أخاه للنبي ﷺ فقال : « لَعَلَّكَ تُرْزَقُ بِهِ » رواه الترمذي بإسناد صحيح على شرط مسلم . « يحترف » : يكتسب ويتسبب .
