141. Seeking refuge with Allah against Satan
the Outcast.
Reference: Abu Dawud 1/206, At-Tirmithi. See
also Al-Albani, Sahih At-Tirmithi 1/77, and Surat Al-Mu'minun, 23:98-9.
142. The call to prayer - 'Adhdhaan
Reference: Muslim 1/291, Al-Bukhari 1/151.
143. Recitation of the Qur'an and authentic
texts of Allah's remembrance (Dhikr) and supplications (Ad-du'aa`)
Reference: "Do not turn your homes into
graveyards, surely the Devil flees from the house in which Surat Al-Baqarah
is read," Muslim 1/539. The Devil is also driven out by the invocations for
morning and evening, those that are said before sleeping and upon waking up,
those for entering and leaving the house, including those for entering and
leaving the mosque, and by many other authentic invocations taught to us by
the Prophet (SAW) such as the reading of 'Ayatul-Kursi, (Al-Baqarah 2:255),
and the last two 'Ayat of Surat Al-Baqarah before going to sleep. Whoever
says: "There is none worthy of worship but Allah alone, Who has no partner,
His is the dominion and His is the praise, and he is Able to do all things,"
one hundred times, it will be a protection for him from the Devil throughout
the day.'
