Takhrij Hadith 503: "The Messenger of Allah (peace…"
Jubayr ibn Mut'im reported:
“
The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: “O Jubayr, would you like, when you set out on a journey, to be among the best of your companions in appearance and the most well-provided in provisions?” I replied: “Yes, may my father and mother be sacrificed for you”. He said: “Then recite these five surahs: "Say: O disbelievers" (Al-Kafirun), "When Allah’s [ultimate] help comes and the victory" (An-Nasr), "Say: He is Allah, the One" (Al-Ikhlas), "Say: I seek refuge in the Lord of the Daybreak" (Al-Falaq), and "Say: I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind" (An-Nas). Begin each surah with "In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful" and conclude your recitation with "In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful". Jubayr said: “I was a wealthy man with abundant possessions, yet whenever I traveled with others, I would be the poorest in appearance and have the least provisions. But ever since the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) taught me these surahs and I began reciting them, I have always been among the best in appearance and the most well-provided during my journeys, until I returned from them.”
