‘Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: "When any one of you goes out to the mosque, let him say: 'Bismillahi, was-salatu was-salamu 'ala Rasulillah. Allahumma inni as'aluka min fadlik. Allahumma 'ismni minash-shaytanir-rajeem' (In the name of Allah, and blessings and peace be upon the Messenger of Allah. O Allah, I ask of You from Your bounty. O Allah, protect me from the accursed Satan)." And when he returns, let him say: 'Allahumma iftah li abwaba rahmatik' (O Allah, open to me the doors of Your mercy).
