Riyad as-Salihin: Book 16, Hadith 19

Shakal bin Humaid (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: I asked: “O Messenger of Allah, teach me a prayer.” He (ﷺ) said, “Say: Allahumma inni a’udhu bika min sharri sam’i, wa min sharri basari, wa min sharri lisani, wa min sharri qalbi, wa min sharri maniyyi (O Allah! I seek refuge in You from the evils of my hearing, the evils of my seeing, the evils of my tongue; the evils of my heart and the evils of passions).”.

وعن شكل بن حميد، رضي الله عنه قال‏:‏ قلت يا رسول الله‏:‏ علمني دعاء‏.‏ قال‏:‏ ‏
“‏قل‏:‏ اللهم إني أعوذ بك من شر سمعي، ومن شر بصري، ومن شر لساني، ومن شر قلبي، ومن شر مني‏”‏‏.‏ رواه أبو داود والترمذي وقال حديث حسن‏.‏
