| When leaving the house  | 
|  Recite:  | 
| بِسْمِ اللَّهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَى اللَّهِ وَلَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ  | 
| "I depart  with Allah's name, relying on Him. It is Allah who saves us from sins  with His guidance (the ability to do so)." (Tirmidhi)  | 
| It is  stated in the hadith that if a person recites the above dua and departs  then there is an (unseen) procalamation that his need will be fullfilled  and that he will be protected from any harm or injury. On hearing this  dua, the Satan goes away from the place and refrains from troubling the  reciting person. (Tirmidhi) | 
| Also look towards the sky and recite:  | 
| اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ أَنْ أَضِلَّ أَوْ أُضَّلَّ أَوْ أَظْلِمَ أَوْ أُظْلَمَ أَوْ أَجْهَلَ أَوْ يُجْهَلَ عَلَىَّ  | 
| "O Allah, I  seek refuge in You from misleading or being misled or oppressing or  being oppressed or from being ignorant or bearing the result of  ignorance". (Mishkat) |
