🌴 Before every journey, the Prophet ﷺ recited a specific dua that most travellers today have never learned. This is the authentic travelling dua of the Prophet ﷺ, narrated by Ibn Umar (RA) and recorded in Sahih Muslim 1342 and Riyad as-Salihin 972 — graded Sahih (authentic). When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ mounted his camel to set out on a journey, he would first say "Allahu Akbar" three times, then recite the supplication. The dua begins with words taken directly from the Qur'an (Surah Az-Zukhruf 43:13-14): "Subhanal-ladhi sakhkhara lana hadha, wa ma kunna lahu muqrinin, wa inna ila Rabbina lamunqalibun" — Glory to the One who has subjected this to us, for we could never have done it ourselves, and indeed to our Lord we will return. He would then ask Allah for righteousness, taqwa, and deeds pleasing to Him during the journey, for the journey to be made easy and the distance shortened, and he would acknowledge Allah as his Companion on the road and the Guardian of the family left behind. He would also seek refuge from the hardships of travel, distressing sights, and any evil turn affecting his property or family. On returning home, he ﷺ added: "Ayibuna, ta'ibuna, 'abiduna, li-Rabbina hamidun" — We return, repenting, worshipping, and praising our Lord. What makes this dua remarkable is how complete it is. In a few short lines it covers gratitude, the purpose of the journey, the safety of the traveller, and the protection of those at home — three concerns in one supplication. It's a confirmed sunnah that applies to every kind of travel, whether you're flying for Umrah to Madinah and Makkah, driving across Saudi Arabia, or simply heading out of the house. This is one of the easiest sunnahs to revive. Memorise it, save this video, and recite it before your next journey — and share it with someone travelling soon so the reward reaches them too. 📖 Source: Sahih Muslim 1342 | Riyad as-Salihin 972 (Sahih) 🔗 https://sunnah.com/riyadussalihin:972 🔔 Subscribe for daily verified facts, tips and hidden gems about Madinah & Makkah. #Madinah #Makkah #Umrah #Hajj #TravellingDua #DuaForTravel #SunnahOfTheProphet #PropheticSunnah #IslamicTravel #MasjidNabawi #MasjidalHaram #Rawdah #Zamzam #UmrahGuide #UmrahTips #HajjGuide #SaudiArabia #KSA #VisitSaudi #SaudiVisa #UmrahVisa #Madina #Mecca #Medina #IslamicReminder #DailyDua #AuthenticHadith #SahihMuslim #RiyadusSaliheen #Albaik #IslamicHistory #Oman #SunnahDua #ProphetMuhammad #Muslim #IslamicTravelTips #MadinahTips #MakkahTips #PilgrimTips #DeenReminder #Ibadah
