Anas reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “When a man leaves his house and says, ‘In the name of Allah; I rely upon Allah; there is no power or strength except through Allah,’ he is told, ‘You have been guided, sufficed, and protected.’ Satan then withdraws from him, and another devil says, ‘How can you get at a man who has been guided, sufficed, and protected?’” Reported by Abu Dawud; al-Tirmidhi reported it up to the words “Satan.” The hadith was not studied by al-Albani.
