1551. Shutair bin Shakal reported from his father (Shakal bin Humaid), that he said: "I said: 'O Messenger of Allāh! Teach me a supplication!' So he said said: 'Say: "Allāhumma! Innī a'ūdhu bika min sharri sam'i, wa min sharri baṣārī, wa min sharri lisānī wa min sharri qalbī, wa min sharri manīyyī. (O Allāh, I seek refuge in You from the evil of my hearing, and the evil of my seeing, and the evil of my tongue, and the evil of my heart, and the evil of my seminal fluid)."(Hasan)

Commentary

This supplication is very comprehensive. It protects one from all sins as well as from the means leading to them.
