Upon Entering the Masjid and Leaving it (70)

The Prophet

was such that if he entered the Masjid he would say: A`outhu bil-lãhi `atheemi, wa bi-wajhihil-kareemi, wa bi-sultãnihil-qadeemi min 'ash-shaytãnir rajeemi⁽⁸⁵⁾.

He said: "For when he would say that, the shaytãn would say: He has been protected from me for the remainder of his day".

Footnotes

⁽⁸⁵⁾ I seek protection or refuge in Allah The Magnificent, in his Noble Face, and in his ancient dominion, from the despicable shaytãn".
