297. It was narrated that 'Ali said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'The screen between the Jinn and the nakedness of the sons of Ādam is that when a person enters the Kanif,[1] he should say: Bismillāh (in the Name of Allāh).'" (Da'if)

Arabic text

297 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْحَكَمُ بْنُ بَشِيرِ بْنِ سَلْمَانَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا خَلَّادٌ الصَّفَّارُ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ النَّصَرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ أَبِي جُحَيْفَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " سِتْرُ مَا بَيْنَ الْجِنِّ وَعَوْرَاتِ بَنِي آدَمَ إِذَا دَخَلَ الْكَنِيفَ أَنْ يَقُولَ: بِسْمِ اللَّهِ "

Commentary

It means that it is also necessary to say Bismillāh along with the abovementioned supplication in Hadīth 296. Alternatively, one may first say Bismillāh, then recite the supplication.
