إِذَا اشْتَرَيْتَ دَابَّةً فَقُلِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كَانَتْ عَظِيمَةَ الْبَرَكَةِ فَاضِلَةَ الْمَنْفَعَةِ مَيْمُونَةَ النَّاصِيَةِ فَيَسِّرْ لِي شِرَاهَا وَ إِنْ كَانَتْ غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ فَاصْرِفْنِي عَنْهَا إِلَى الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ لِي مِنْهَا فَإِنَّكَ تَعْلَمُ وَ لَا أَعْلَمُ وَ تَقْدِرُ وَ لَا أَقْدِرُ وَ أَنْتَ عَلَّامُ الْغُيُوبِ تَقُولُ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Muawiya Bin Ammar, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘Whenever you buy an animal (a vehicle), so say, ‘O Allah<sup>azwj</sup>! If there will be great Blessings, Grace, profits, of auspicious forelocks, so Ease its buying for me; and if there are to be other than that, so Turn me away from it to that one which is better for me than it, for You<sup>azwj</sup> Know and I do not know, and You<sup>azwj</sup> are Able and I am not able, and You<sup>azwj</sup> are the Knower of the unseen’ – You should be saying that three times’.
