In Allah's name we enter, and in Allah's name we leave, and in Allah, our Lord, we place our trust. O Allah, I ask You for the best of entrance and the best of exit, a door of provision and blessing. And I ask You, my Lord, to bless me in my family and in my home, and to expand my provision, and to make my home a gathering place for knowledge, wisdom, and innovation. And grant me righteous offspring who follow Your command, who love the Sunnah of Your Prophet. And protect me and my offspring from the accursed devil.
Bismillahi walajna, wa bismillahi kharajna, wa 'alallahi Rabbana tawakkalna. Allahumma inni as'aluka khairal madkhali wa khairal makhraji, baban rizqiw wa barakah, wa as'aluka Rabbi an tubarika li fi ahli wa fi baiti, wa an tuwassi'a 'alayya rizqi, wa an taj'ala baiti majlisa 'ilmin wa hikmatin wa ibda', wa an tarzuqani adh-dhurriyyat as-salihah at-tabi'ata li amrik, al-muhibbata li sunnati nabiyyik, wa an tu'idhani wa dhurriyyati minash-shaytanir-rajim.

Source & Authentication
While no single hadith contains this exact comprehensive wording, it is built upon the foundations of authentic narrations. For entering the home, the Prophet ๏ทบ taught: 'When a man enters his house, he should say: O Allah, I ask You for a blessed entrance and a blessed exit. O Allah, make easy for us the entry and make easy for us the exit, and forgive us and have mercy on us. And on Allah we depend.' (Sahih Muslim 2709). The additional requests for provision, blessing, family well-being, knowledge, wisdom, innovation, righteous offspring, and protection from Shaytan are all well-established supplications taught by the Prophet ๏ทบ in various contexts, and are fitting to combine for a holistic prayer for one's home.
