وَرَوَى سَعْدٌ اَلْإِسْكَافُ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ:« مَنْ قَالَ هَذِهِ اَلْكَلِمَاتِ فَأَنَا ضَامِنٌ أَنْ لاَ يُصِيبَهُ عَقْرَبٌ وَ لاَ هَامَّةٌ حَتَّى يُصْبِحَ أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اَللَّهِ اَلتَّامَّاتِ اَلَّتِي لاَ يُجَاوِزُهُنَّ بَرٌّ وَ لاَ فَاجِرٌ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا ذَرَأَ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا بَرَأَ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ دَابَّةٍ هُوَ« آخِذٌ بِنٰاصِيَتِهٰا إِنَّ رَبِّي عَلىٰ صِرٰاطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ»
Sa‘d al-Iskaf narrated from Abu Ja‘far عليه السلام:
Imam عليه السلام said: “Whoever says these words, I guarantee that no scorpion nor harmful creature will harm him until morning: ‘I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, which no righteous or wicked person can surpass, from the evil of what He عز وجل has created, and from the evil of what He عز وجل has formed, and from the evil of every creature whose forelock He عز وجل holds. Indeed, my Lord عز وجل is on a straight path.’”
