Al-Harith bin Muslim al-Tamimi quoted his father Muslim bin al-Harith al-Tamimi as saying that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم told him secretly: When you finish the sunset prayer, say: 'O Allah, protect me from Hell seven times; for if you say that and die that night, protection from it would be recorded for you; and when you finish the dawn prayer, say it in a similar way, for if you die that day, protection from it would be recorded for you. Abu Saeed told me that al-Harith said: The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said this to us secretly, so we confine it to our brethren.
