It is narrated from Umm al-Mu'mineen Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to supplicate with these words: "O Allah! I seek refuge in You from the trial of Hell and the punishment of Hell, from the trial of the grave and the punishment of the grave, from the evil of the trial of wealth and the evil of the trial of poverty. And I seek refuge in You from the evil of the trial of the False Messiah (Dajjal). O Allah! Wash away my sins with the water of snow and hail, and purify my heart from sins as You have purified a white garment from filth, and distance me from my sins as You have distanced the East from the West. O Allah! I seek refuge in You from laziness, old age, sin, and debt."

Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say: "O Allah! I seek refuge in You from incapacity, laziness, cowardice, old age, and miserliness. And I seek refuge in You from the torment of the grave and from the trials of life and death."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, used to seek refuge from evil fate (evil destiny), falling into wretchedness, the rejoicing of enemies, and the severity of trials. Amr also said that Sufyan (the narrator of the hadith) said that he was unsure whether he had added one of these four things in this hadith.

`Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) narrates that among the supplications of the Messenger of Allah was also this: "O Allah! I seek refuge in You from the decline of Your blessings, from the loss of well-being and health You have granted, from Your sudden punishment, and from all actions that incur Your wrath."

Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that two men sneezed in the presence of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) responded to one of them and did not respond to the other. The one to whom he did not respond said, "He sneezed and you responded to him, but I sneezed and you did not respond to me." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "He (i.e., the one to whom I responded) said 'Alhamdulillah,' but you did not say 'Alhamdulillah,' so I did not respond to you."

It is narrated from Iyas bin Salamah that his father (Sayyiduna Salamah bin Akwa’ رضي الله عنه) heard the Noble Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, that a man sneezed in the presence of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, so the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "Yarhamuk Allah (may Allah have mercy on you)." Then he sneezed again, so the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "He has caught a cold." (That is, if someone is sneezing due to a cold, up to what point should one say "Yarhamuk Allah" to him?)
