WE RELATE FROM the book of Ibn as-Sunnī that ‘Amr ibn Shu‘ayb reported from his father, who reported from his grandfather, that the Messenger of Allah 
said: “If you see a fire say the takbīr, for the takbīr extinguishes it.” [1].
said: “If you see a fire say the takbīr, for the takbīr extinguishes it.” [1].It is mustaḥabb to supplicate with the du‘ā’ against affliction and difficulty that we mentioned earlier in the Kitāb al-Adhkār for accidents, and upon infirmities and plagues.
