" O Allaah, I seek refuge in Thee."

Shu'bah said: Anas sometimes reported the words: "I take refuge in Allah."
Sunan Abi Dawud Book 1, Hadith 5
← Previous Hadith When the Apostle of Allaah (sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam) entered the toilet, he used to say (before entering): "O Allaah, I seek refuge in Thee." This is according to the version of Hammad. 'Abd al-Warith has another version :"I seek refuge in Allaah from male and female devils."

Sunan Abi Dawud Book 1, Hadith 4 Next Hadith → The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: These privies are frequented by the jinns and devils. So when anyone amongst you goes there, he should say: "I seek refuge in Allah from male and female devils."
