أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ السَّلَامِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْقَيُّومِ الْبَلْخِيُّ، وَالْحَسَنُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ الطِّهْرَانِيُّ، وَغَيْرُهُمَا، قَالُوا: كَانَ الْمَنْصُورُ يُعَلِّمُ أَصْحَابَهُ هَذَا الدُّعَاءَ وَيَقُولُ لَهُمْ: قُولُوا حِينَ تُصْبِحُونَ وَحِينَ تَخَافُونَ:
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ، بِسْمِ اللَّهِ خَيْرِ الْأَسْمَاءِ، بِسْمِ اللَّهِ رَبِّ الْأَرْضِ وَالسَّمَاءِ، بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الَّذِي لَا يَضُرُّ مَعَ اسْمِهِ سَمٌّ وَلَا دَاءٌ، بِسْمِ اللَّهِ أَصْبَحْتُ وَعَلَى اللَّهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ، بِسْمِ اللَّهِ عَلَى نَفْسِي وَبَدَنِي، بِسْمِ اللَّهِ عَلَى عَقْلِي وَدِينِي، بِسْمِ اللَّهِ عَلَى أَهْلِي وَمَالِي، بِسْمِ اللَّهِ عَلَى مَا أَعْطَانِي رَبِّي، بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الَّذِي لَا يَضُرُّ مَعَ اسْمِهِ شَيْءٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَا فِي السَّمَاءِ وَهُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ، اللَّهُ اللَّهُ رَبِّي، لَا أُشْرِكُ بِهِ شَيْئًا، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ وَأَعَزُّ وَأَجَلُّ مِمَّا أَخَافُ وَأَحْذَرُ، عَزَّ جَارُكَ، وَجَلَّ ثَنَاؤُكَ، وَلَا إِلَهَ غَيْرُكَ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ نَفْسِي، وَمِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ شَيْطَانٍ مَرِيدٍ، وَمِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ سُلْطَانٍ شَدِيدٍ، وَمِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ جَبَّارٍ عَنِيدٍ، وَمِنْ شَرِّ قَضَاءِ السُّوءِ، وَمِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ دَابَّةٍ أَنْتَ آخِذٌ بِنَاصِيَتِهَا، إِنَّكَ عَلَى صِرَاطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ، وَإِنَّكَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ حَفِيظٍ، ﴿إِنَّ وَلِيِّيَ اللَّهُ الَّذِي نَزَّلَ الْكِتَابَ ۖ وَهُوَ يَتَوَلَّى الصَّالِحِينَ﴾[1]، ﴿فَإِنْ تَوَلَّوْا فَقُلْ حَسْبِيَ اللَّهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ۖ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ ۖ وَهُوَ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ﴾[2].
Translation of the saying:
Abd al-Salam ibn Abd al-Qayyum al-Balkhi, Hasan ibn Qasim al-Tehrani, and others informed us, they said: Mansoor taught this du‘a to his companions and said to them: Whenever you wake up in the morning and whenever you feel fear, say:
In the name of Allah the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. In the name of Allah, which is the best of names. In the names of Allah, Lord of the earth and the heavens. In the name of Allah, with Whose name no poison or disease can cause harm. In the name of Allah, I have come upon the morning, and I have put my trust in Allah. (I say) the name of Allah upon my soul and my body. (I say) the name of Allah upon my intellect and my religion. (I say) the name of Allah upon my family and my wealth. (I say) the name of Allah on everything that my Lord has bestowed upon me. In the name of Allah, with Whose name nothing can cause harm on the earth nor in the heavens, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing. Allah, Allah is my Lord; I do not associate anything with Him. Allah is Greater, Allah is Greater and Mightier and More Superior than what I fear and dread. Honorable is the one who seeks protection in You, great are Your praises, and there is no god but You. O Allah! I seek refuge in You from the evil of my self, and from the evil of every wicked Satan, and from the evil of every cruel ruler, and from the evil of every stubborn oppressor, and from the evil of bad judgment, and from the evil of every creature that You hold the hair on front of its head. Indeed, You are upon the right path, and indeed, You guard everything. “Indeed, my Guardian is the One Who has sent down the Book, and He is the Guardian of the righteous.” “So if they turn away, say: Allah is sufficient for me. There is no god but He. I have put my trust in Him, and He is the Lord of the Mighty Throne.”
