7. When you are traveling and night sets in, recite the following dua for protection:

يَا أَرْضُ رَبِّيْ وَرَبُّكِ اللهُ أَعُوْذُ بِاللهِ مِنْ شَرِّكِ وَشَرِّ مَا فِيْكِ وَشَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ فِيْكِ وَمِنْ شَرِّ مَا يَدِبُّ عَلَيْكِ وَأَعُوْذُ بِاللهِ مِنْ أَسَدٍ وَأَسْوَدْ وَمِنَ الْحَيَّةِ وَالْعَقْرَبِ وَمِنْ سَاكِنِ الْبَلَدِ وَمِنْ وَالِدٍ وَمَا وَلَدَ

O earth! My Rabb and your Rabb is Allah Ta‘ala! I seek protection in Allah Ta‘ala from your evil (the harm that is caused through the ground e.g. earthquakes, sinking into the ground, etc.), and the evil of that which is contained in you (e.g. harmful plants, etc.), and the evil of that which He created in you (e.g. harmful insects and other harmful creatures), and the evil of that which creeps upon you (i.e. harmful creatures which move on the earth), and I seek the protection of Allah Ta‘ala from a lion, and a black snake (a very dangerous type of snake), and from all snakes and scorpions, and from the residents of the earth (human and jinn), and from that which begets and that which is begotten (i.e. from humans and the shayaateen, or from every creature that is created through procreation).” [1]

8. When you are traveling and the time of sehri sets in, recite the following dua:

سَمِعَ سَامِعٌ بِحَمْدِ اللهِ وَحُسْنِ بَلَائِهِ عَلَيْنَا رَبَّنَا صَاحِبْنَا وَأَفْضِلْ عَلَيْنَا عَائِذًا بِاللهِ مِنَ النَّارْ

Those who are hearing should hear (and witness) our praise of Allah Ta‘ala and (our acknowledgement of) His great bounties upon us. O our Rabb! You accompany us (on this journey and take care of us) and shower Your special bounties upon us. (We supplicate while) seeking the protection of Allah Ta‘ala from the fire of Jahannum. [2]

9. When you return from your journey and arrive at your hometown, recite the following dua:

آئِبُوْنَ تَائِبُوْنَ عَابِدُوْنَ لِرَبِّنَا حَامِدُوْنَ

We return (from the journey) and we repent to Allah Ta‘ala (for our shortcomings and mistakes), and we engage in the worship of our Rabb, and we praise Him. [3]

Also recite the following dua:

تَوْبًا تَوْبًا لِرَبِّنَا أَوْبًا لَا يُغَادِرُ عَلَيْنَا حَوْبًا

We continuously turn to our Rabb and seek such a forgiveness from Him after which there is no sin that remains upon us. [4]
