Allah's straight path

'Abdullaah ibn Mas'ood radiallaahu 'anhu said: 

The Prophet sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam drew a line for us and said. "This is Allaah's Straight Path." Then he drew lines to its right and left and then said. "These ore other paths. Upon every one of them there is a devil calling towards it." Then he recited: "Indeed this is My Straight Path, so follow it, and do not follow other paths that will separate you from His Path." [Soorah al-An'aam 6:153]

[Hasan: Related by Ahmad (1/435) and an-Nasaa'ee (7/49). It was authenticated by al-Albaanee in Dhilaalul-Jannah fee Takhreejis-Sunnah (no.16)]

upon going out of your home

Whoever says - upon going out of his home: 

"Bismillaah, tawakkaltu 'alaa 'allaah, laa hawla wa laa quwwata 'illaa bil-laahi ta'aala"
I put my trust in Allah, there is neither might nor strength, except by Allah, the Most High

it is said to him:

You have been sufficed, protected, and guided, and the shaytan would move aside from him, then say to another shaytan: What access do you have to a man that has been guided, sufficed, and protected?

[Reported by Abu dawood, An-Nisã’ee , and At-Tirmithi and he said it was comely-sound. Al-Albãni included this hadeeth in The Authentic of Good Sayings as #44.]

Reward equal to that of freeing four precious slaves

"He who utters ten times: 

'La ilaha illallahu, wahdahu la sharika lahu, lahulmulku wa lahulhamdu, wa Huwa 'ala kulli sha'in Qadir'

There is none worth of worship except Allah. He is One and He has no partner with Him. His is the sovereignity and His is the praise, and He is Omnipotent.

he will have a reward equal to that for freeing four slaves from the progeny of Prophet Ismail."

[narrated Bukhari and Muslim]
