Turn to Allah ﷻ
One of the ways to escape from sins (as mentioned by Ibn al-Qayyim) is for the servant to turn to the One who the hearts of servants are between His two fingers, the One in whose hands are all important matters and the One who controls and disposes of the servant’s affairs. Imagine the effects this will have when the hearts turn to One who is in control of all of these things, rely upon Him and cling to Him.
♥️ And whoever firmly adheres(holds) to Allah, then he is indeed guided to a straight Path. [Al-Qur’an 3:101]
And you ask Him to aid, protect, safeguard and look after you. There are numerous supplications that highlight this point, which have been authentically conveyed from the Prophetﷺ. Whoever successfully supplicates to Allah and places their trust and reliance in Him, will have their supplication accepted.
♥️ And your Lord says: Call upon Me; I will answer you. Indeed those who are too proud to worship Me will enter the Hellfire in disgrace. [Al-Qur’an 40:60]
♥️ When My servants ask you about Me, then (tell them that) I am near. I respond to the call of one when he prays to Me; so they should respond to Me, and have faith in Me, so that they may be on the right path. [Al-Qur’an 2:186]
For this reason, it has been legislated for you to say whenever you leave your home,
💎 Allaahumma innee a‛oodhu bika an aḍilla aw uḍalla, aw azilla aw uzalla, aw aẓlima aw uẓlama, aw ajhala aw yujhala ‛alayy.
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ أَنْ أَضِلَّ أَوْ أُضَلَّ أَوْ أَزِلَّ أَوْ أُزَلَّ أَوْ أَظْلِمَ أَوْ أُظْلَمَ أَوْ أَجْهَلَ أَوْ يُجْهَلَ عَلَىَّ
O Allah! I seek refuge in You lest I stray or be led astray, or slip(fall into error) or made to slip, or cause injustice, or suffer injustice, or do wrong, or have wrong done to me. [Sunan Abi Dawood 5094(Sahih)]
This matter is extremely significant and whoever is granted success in this affair and is truthful in his reliance upon Allah will be protected, granted refuge and safeguarded. If an individual says, as found in the prophetic hadith,
When a man leaves his house, and says:
💎 Bismillaah, tawakkaltu ‛alal-laah, laa ḥawla wa laa quwwata illaa billaah.
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَى اللَّهِ لاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاَّ بِاللَّهِ
In the name of Allah, I place my trust in Allah; there is no might nor power except with Allah.
Then it is said: ‘You have been guided, sufficed and protected.’ Then the devils withdraw from him. Then another one of the devils says to him: “What can you do to a man who has been guided, sufficed and protected?” [Sunan Abi Dawood 5095(Sahih)]
This demonstrates for us the lofty station and significant role of the legislated Islamic supplications and the authentic invocations, and the consequences of sincere reliance upon Allah in this important matter, which is the prevention of sins and avoiding them.
