About this Supplication & Hadith Context
Meaning, spiritual background, and authentic virtues from the Sunnah
✦Stepping Out into Allah's Bounty
Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught that when stepping out of the mosque, a Muslim should say: 'Allahumma inni as'aluka min fadlik' ('O Allah, I ask You from Your bounty' — Sahih Muslim 713). It forms the perfect companion to the entering Dua.
✦The Profound Difference Between Mercy and Bounty
Scholars explain why we ask for **mercy** (Rahmah) upon entering the mosque and **bounty** (Fadl) upon leaving: in the mosque, one seeks spiritual mercy, forgiveness, and worship; when exiting into the marketplace and world, one seeks lawful sustenance, livelihood, and worldly bounty.

What is the Dua for leaving the masjid in Arabic and English?▼
Arabic: اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ مِنْ فَضْلِكَ. Transliteration: 'Allahumma inni as'aluka min fadlik'. English: 'O Allah, I ask You from Your bounty' (Sahih Muslim 713).
What is the extended version including Salawat?▼
Sunan Abi Dawud (465) records: 'Bismillahi was-salatu was-salamu 'ala Rasulillah, Allahumma inni as'aluka min fadlik, Allahumma'simni minash-shaytanir-rajim' ('...O Allah, protect me from the accursed devil').
With which foot should you leave the mosque?▼
It is Sunnah to exit the mosque with your **left foot** first while wearing shoes, reversing the entry where you step in with your right foot.
Why do we ask for 'Fadl' (Bounty) upon leaving the mosque?▼
Because Allah says in Surah Al-Jumu'ah (62:10): 'And when the prayer has been concluded, disperse within the land and seek from the bounty of Allah.' Worldly livelihood earned with halal intentions is part of divine bounty.
Does reciting the exit Dua protect against Shaytan?▼
Yes, the addition recorded in Sunan Ibn Majah (773) specifically asks Allah for protection against Shaytan when returning into worldly distractions.
