Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, never saw a village he intended to enter but that he said upon seeing it: "O Allah, Lord of the seven heavens and what they overshadow, and Lord of the seven earths and what they carry, and Lord of the devils and what they lead astray, and Lord of the winds and what they scatter. Indeed, we ask You for the good of this village and the good of its people, and we seek refuge in You from its evil, and the evil of its people, and the evil of what is in it."
