Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَسَمِعْتُهُ أَنَا مِنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَخْرُجَ إِلَى سَفَرٍ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ الصَّاحِبُ فِي السَّفَرِ وَالْخَلِيفَةُ فِي الْأَهْلِ اللَّهُمّ
َ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ الضُّبْنَةِ فِي السَّفَرِ وَالْكَآبَةِ فِي الْمُنْقَلَبِ اللَّهُمَّ اطْوِ لَنَا الْأَرْضَ وَهَوِّنْ عَلَيْنَا السَّفَرَ وَإِذَا أَرَادَ الرُّجُوعَ قَالَ آيِبُونَ تَائِبُونَ عَابِدُونَ لِرَبِّنَا حَامِدُونَ وَإِذَا دَخَلَ أَهْلَهُ قَالَ تَوْبًا تَوْبًا لِرَبِّنَا أَوْبًا لَا يُغَادِرُ عَلَيْنَا حَوْبًا

English Translation
'Abdullah ibn Muhammad ibn Abi Shaybah narrated to us — and I heard it from 'Abdullah ibn Muhammad — Abu al-Ahwas narrated to us, from Simak, from 'Ikrimah, from Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنهما) who said: When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ intended to set out on a journey, he would say: "O Allah, You are the Companion during the journey and the Guardian of the family. O Allah, I seek refuge in You from hardship during the journey and from grief upon return. O Allah, fold the earth for us and make the journey easy for us." And when he intended to return, he would say: "Returning, repenting, worshipping, and praising our Lord." And when he entered upon his family, he would say: "Repentance, repentance to our Lord, a return that leaves no sin upon us."
