6ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي هَاشِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي خَدِيجَةَ قَالَ كَانَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) إِذَا خَرَجَ يَقُولُ اللهمَّ بِكَ خَرَجْتُ وَلَكَ أَسْلَمْتُ وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ وَعَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ اللهمَّ بَارِكْ لِي فِي يَوْمِي هَذَا وَارْزُقْنِي فَوْزَهُ وَفَتْحَهُ وَنَصْرَهُ وَطَهُورَهُ وَهُدَاهُ وَبَرَكَتَهُ وَاصْرِفْ عَنِّي شَرَّهُ وَشَرَّ مَا فِيهِ بِسْمِ الله وَبِالله وَالله أَكْبَرُ وَالْحَمْدُ لله رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ اللهمَّ إِنِّي قَدْ خَرَجْتُ فَبَارِكْ لِي فِي خُرُوجِي وَانْفَعْنِي بِهِ قَالَ وَإِذَا دَخَلَ فِي مَنْزِلِهِ قَالَ ذَلِكَ.

Published English translation

6. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn Ali from ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn abu Hashim from abu Khadijah who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.) when coming out of his house would say, ‘O Lord, with Your help I have come out, to You I am submitted, in You I believe, and in You I place my trust. O Lord, make this day a blessing for me, grant me success, victory, support, cleanliness, guidance, its blessings, and divert away from me its evil, and the evil of that which is in it. In the name of Allah, with the help of Allah, Allah is greater than can be described; all praise belongs to Allah, Lord of the worlds. O Lord, I have come out, make my exit a blessing and benefit me thereby. ’ The narrator has said that on entering his house also he would say this.”
