We relate in the book of Ibn as-Sunnī, from Talq ibn Ḥabīb who narrated that a man came to Abū ad-Dardā’ and said: “Abū ad-Dardā’, your house has burnt down.” He replied: “It has not burnt down. Allah will not do that, because of the words that I heard from the Messenger of Allah . Whoever says them in the morning will be safe from calamity until the evening, and whoever says them in the evening will be safe from calamity until the morning: Allah, You are my Lord. There is no god but You. In You I do trust and You are the Lord of the Mighty Throne. What Allah wills shall be, and what He does not will shall not. There is no power or strength but by Allah, the Most High, the Mighty. I know that Allah has power over all things and that He encompasses everything with His knowledge. O Allah, I seek protection with You from the evil of my soul and from the evil of every beast that You hold by the forelock. Verily my Lord is on a straight path.” ^[46].
