It is narrated from Sayyiduna Uthman bin Abi al-As al-Thaqafi (may Allah be pleased with him) that he went to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "I have a pain that is about to destroy me." He says that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: "Place your right hand (on the place of pain) and say seven times: «أَعُوذُ بِعِزَّةِ اللَّهِ وَقُدْرَتِهِ، مِنْ شَرِّ مَا أَجِدُ» I seek refuge in Allah’s honor and power from the evil of what I find." He said that I did so, and Allah removed my pain. I continuously instruct my family and other people to do the same.
