Chapter 173
Supplication if one Fears (Harm)

[981] عن أَبي موسى الأشعريِّ أنَّ رسولَ الله كَانَ إِذَا خَافَ قَوْماً قَالَ : « اللَّهُمَّ إنَّا نَجْعَلُكَ في نُحُورِهِمْ ، وَنَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شُرُورِهِمْ » . رواه أَبُو داود والنسائي بإسنادٍ صحيحٍ . في هذا الحديث : أن من اعتصم بالله تعالى ولجأ إليه كفاه كيد الأَعادي والحساد . قال الله تعالى ﴿ فَسَيَكْفِيكَهُمُ اللّهُ وَهُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ ﴾ [ البقرة (137)].

981. Abu Musa Al-Ashari (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: When the Messenger of Allah (PBUH), feared mischief from a people, he would supplicate: "Allahumma inna naj'aluka fi nuhurihim, wa na'udhu bika min shururihim (O Allah! We ask You to face them, and seek Your Protection against their evil."

[Abu Dawud and An-Nasa'i].

Commentary: Allah's Help, we are told, is a protection against all perils. Through this prayer we seek His Help with the conviction that the deceptions and designs of the infidels will turn back upon them.
