مَرَّ بِي مُعَتِّبٌ وَ مَعَهُ خَاتَمٌ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ أَيُّ شَيْ‏ءٍ هَذَا فَقَالَ خَاتَمُ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) فَأَخَذْتُ لِأَقْرَأَ مَا فِيهِ فَإِذَا فِيهِ اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ ثِقَتِي فَقِنِي شَرَّ خَلْقِكَ .


Translation

A number of our companions, form Ahmad Bin Abu Abdullah, from Abdullah Bin Muhammad Al Naheyki, from Ibrahim Bin Abdul Hameed who said, ‘Mo’tab passed by me and with him was a ring, so I said to him, ‘Which thing is this?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘A ring of Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>’. So I took it to read what was (inscribed) in it, so there was in it – ‘اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ ثِقَتِي فَقِنِي شَرَّ خَلْقِكَ’ “O Allah<sup>azwj</sup>! You<sup>azwj</sup> are my<sup>asws</sup> Trusted One, so Protect me<sup>asws</sup> from the evil of Your<sup>azwj</sup> creatures”’.
