What do you say when a dog is coming to attack you? What do you say when you sense someone may harass you? What do you say when you fear that a person may oppress you?

The bottom line is, dear sisters what do you say when you fear that there is someone who may harm you? In addition to taking the proper action, there is a dua which you should say in such cases, so that Allah may suffice you and protect you from their harm. It was a dua as narrated in “Muslim”, which a young man said to be protected from an oppressive ruler who sought to kill him. Why? Due to his faith. The ruler sent him with a group of soldiers to the top of the mountain to be thrown off the cliff. But the young man said the dua, so the mountain shook, the soldiers fell and he survived.

 

It was a dua which the young believing man said when he was captured again by the oppressor and a group of soldiers escorted him to the middle of the ocean to throw him off the boat. But the young man said that dua so the boat flipped, the soldiers drowned and he survived.

It was dua as narrated in Masand Imam Ahmed which the Prophet P.B.U.H said, when he was emigrating from Makkah to Madinah and noticed Suraqa bin Malik was chasing him to kill him. So the prophet said the dua and as a result the legs of horse which Suraqa was riding sunk into the ground and the Prophet was unharmed.

Dear sisters, if you you ever feared any harm from a group of people or any enemy. Like now a days, how our neighbour country is threatening us and is planning to attack on us.

There is no need to get frightened from them. Just take the necessary precautions and proper action and recite this dua

اَلّٰهُمَّ اكْفِنِيْهِمْ بِمَا شِيْتَ  

Translation: “O Allah, protect me from them as you wish”.   (Sahih Muslim)
