3439. ‘Abdullāh bin Sarjis narrated that when the Prophet ﷺ wanted to travel, he would say: “O Allāh, You are the companion on the journey, and the caretaker for the family, O Allāh, accompany us in our journey, and watch over our families, O Allāh, I seek refuge in You from the difficulties of the journey, and from returning in great sadness, and from loss after increase, and from the supplication of the oppressed, and from someone looking with evil at our families and wealth (Allāhumma Antas-Šāhibu Fīs-Safari Wal-Khalifatu Fil-Ahli Allāhumma Aṣhabnā Fī Safarinā Wakhlufnā Fī Ahlinā. Allāhumma Innī A’udhu Bika Min Wa’tā’is-Safari Wa Kā-ābatil-Munqalab, Wa Minal-Hawri Ba’dal-Kawri, Wa Min Da’watil-Mazlūm, Wa Min Sū’il-Manzari Fil-Ahli Wal-Māl). ” ( ) [Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Ḥadīth is Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ. He said: It has been narrated “loss after being” as well. [He said:] And the meaning of his statement “loss after increase” or “being” – and each of the two is reasonable – is returning from belief to disbelief or from obedience to disobedience: It only means “from something returning to something evil.”
