Arabic hadith text

وَعَن بُرَيْدَة قَالَ: كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا دَخَلَ السُّوقَ قَالَ: «بِسْمِ اللَّهِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَ هَذِهِ السُّوقِ وَخَيْرِ مَا فِيهَا وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّهَا وَشَرِّ مَا فِيهَا اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ أَنْ أُصِيبَ فِيهَا صَفْقَةً خَاسِرَةً» . رَوَاهُ الْبَيْهَقِيُّ فِي الدَّعَوَاتِ الْكَبِير

Translation

Buraydah reported that when the Prophet ﷺ entered the market, he would say: “In the name of Allah. O Allah, I ask You for the good of this market and the good within it, and I seek refuge in You from its evil and the evil within it. O Allah, I seek refuge in You from making a losing transaction here.” Reported by al-Bayhaqi in al-Da‘awat al-Kabir. The hadith was not studied by al-Albani.
