Sharing by Aliaa : What do I do once I got in the car and about to go out for a drive

Salam and hi everyone.

Today I would like to share with you all, what I usually do when I got in the car. Be it to go out for a drive or being a passenger.

Here are my routine :

- Check the tyres. All of them

 - Unlock the car. Get in the car. As a driver / passenger

- OK. Here are the important bits. I will recite:

1. 4 Qul - Al Kafirun, Al Ikhlas, Al 'Alaq & An Nas
2. Al Fatihah
3. Ayatul Qursi
4. Syahadah
5. Salawat
6. Doa for travellers :

First

{سُبْحَانَ الَّذِيْ سَخَّرَ لَنَا هَذَا وَمَا كُنَّا لَهُ مُقْرِنِيْنَ. وَإِنَّا إِلَى رَبِّنَا لَمُنْقَلِبُوْنَ}

Subhana-alladhi sakh-khara la-na hadha wa ma kunna la-hu muqrinin. Wa inna ila Rabbi-na la munqalibuun.

Second

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَى اللَّهِ، لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ

BISMILLAHI, TAWAKKALTU ’ALA ALLAH, LAA HAULA WA LAA QUWWATA ILLAA BILLAAH

“Dengan nama Allah, aku bertawakal kepada Allah. Tiada daya dan kekuatan kecuali dengan Allah.”

Third

 بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الذي لَا يَضُرُّ مع اسْمِهِ شَيْءٌ في الأرض ولا في السَّمَاءِ وهو السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ

bismillahillazi la yadhurru ma'asmihi syaiun fil ardhi wala fis sama'ie wa huas sami'ul 'alim

Alhamdulillah I feel safe along the way. I also practice the same routine when I am about to leave on a plane or any other traveling / hiking / camping etc activities.

Maybe you can try too.
