It was narrated that ‘Abdullah bin Sarjis said: “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to say” – and (one of the narrators) ‘Abdur-Rahim said: “he used to seek refuge” – “when he traveled: ‘Allahumma inni a’udhu bika min wa’tha’is-safar, wa ka’abatil-munqalab, wal-hawri ba’dal-kawr, wa da’watil-mazlum, wa su’il-manzari fil-ahli wal-mal (O Allah, I seek refuge with You from the hardships of travel and the sorrows of return, from decrease after increase, from the prayer of the one who has been wronged, and seeing some calamity befall my family or wealth).’”
(One of the narrators) Abu Mu’awiyah added: “And when he returned he said likewise.”

It was
narrated from ‘Awn bin Abu Juhaifah, from his father, that the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever sees me in a dream, it is
as
if he has seen me when he is awake, for Satan is not able to
resemble
me.”

‘Aishah narrated that when the Prophet (ﷺ) saw a cloud approaching from any horizon, he would stop what he was doing, even if he was praying, and turn to face it, then he would say: “Allahumma inna na’udhu bika min sharri ma ursila bihi (O Allah, we seek refuge with You from the evil of that with which it is sent).” Then if it rained he would say: “Allahumma sayyiban nafi’an (O Allah, a beneficial rain),” two or three times. And if Allah dispelled it and it did not rain, he would praise Allah for that.

It was narrated from ‘Aishah that when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saw rain, he would say: “Allahumma aj’alhu sayyiban hani’an (O Allah, make it a wholesome rain cloud).”

It was narrated that ‘Aishah said: “If the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saw a cloud that looked as if it was bringing rain, the color of his face would change, and he would go in and out and walk to and fro. Then, if it rained, he would feel relieved.” ‘Aishah mentioned to him what she had seen him do, and he said: “How do you know? Perhaps it would be as the people of Hud said: ‘Then, when they saw it as a dense cloud coming towards their valleys, they said: “This is a cloud bringing us rain!” Nay, but it is that (torment) which you were asking to be hastened.” [46:24]

It was narrated from Ibn ‘Umar that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever unexpectedly comes across a person suffering a calamity, and says: Al-hamdu Lillahil-ladhi ‘afani mim-mabtalaka bihi, wa faddalani ‘ala kathirin mimman khalaqa tafdila (Praise is to Allah Who has kept me safe from that which has afflicted you and preferred me over many of those whom He has created), will be kept safe from that calamity, no matter what it is.’”

It was
narrated from Anas bin Malik that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
said: “A good dream from a righteous man is one of the forty-six parts
of
prophecy.”

It was
narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “The
dream
of a believer is one of the forty-six parts of prophecy.”

It was
narrated from Abu Sa’eed Al-Khudri that the Prophet (ﷺ)
said: “The dream of a righteous Muslim man is one of the seventy parts
of
prophecy.”

It was narrated that Hudhaifah said: “Whenever the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) woke up in the morning, he would say: ‘Al-hamdu lillahil-ladhi ahyana ba’dama amatana wa ilayhi’n-nushur (Praise is to Allah Who has given us life after taking it from us, and unto Him is the Resurrection).’”
