Arabic Text
عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا جَاءَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنِّي أُرِيدُ سَفَرًا فَزَوِّدْنِي قَالَ: "زَوَّدَكَ اللَّهُ التَّقْوَى" قَالَ: زِدْنِي قَالَ: "وَغَفَرَ ذَنْبَكَ" قَالَ: زِدْنِي بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَأُمِّي قَالَ: "وَيَسَّرَ لَكَ الْخَيْرَ حَيْثُمَا كُنْتَ"
Anas narrated: A man came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: "O Messenger of Allah, I intend to travel, so provide me with something." He said: "May Allah supply you with piety." He said: "Give me more." He replied: "And may He forgive your sins." He said: "Give me more, may my father and mother be ransomed for you." He said: "And may He make goodness easy for you wherever you are."
