Traveling is a part of our daily lives. It is not just when we go out of town/country, but also when we go out of the house. Prophet ‘alaihi shalatu wasallam taught us to pray when we enter into vehicles, whether it is in the car, plane, ship, or any other transports. Recite the following do’a when we are in the vehicle, may Allah protect us in our journey!
،الله أَكْبَر، الله أَكْبَر، الله أَكْبَر،
سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي سَخَّرَ لَنَا هَذَا، وَمَا كُنَّا لَهُ مُقْرِنِينَ،
وَإِنَّا إِلَى رَبِّنَا لَمُنْقَلِبُونَ،
اللَّهمَّ إِنَّا نَسْأَلُكَ فِي سَفَرِنَا هَذَا الْبِرَّ وَالتَّقْوَى، وَمِنَ ،
اللَّهمَّ هَوِّنْ عَلَيْنَا سَفَرَنَا هَذَا، الْعَمَلِ مَا تَرْضَى
Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar
Subhanalladzi sakhkhara lanaa hadza, wa maa kunnaa lahu muqriniin
Wa inna ilaa Rabbinaa lamunqalibuun
Allahumma inna nas’aluka fii safarinaa hadza birra wattaqwa, wa minal ‘amal maa tardha
Allahumma hawwin ‘alainaa safarinaa hadza
“The great of Allah, The great of Allah, The great of Allah
Glory to Allah who make us easy to our vehicle, when we were previously unable to. And to Him we shall return to our Lord (on the Day of Resurrection).
O Allah! Indeed we asked You during our travel the goodness and piety, and the deeds that you accepted.
O Allah! Make it easy for our trip, and bring the distance close for us.
