Riyad as-Salihin 1485 (Book 16, Hadith 21) #37974
Seeking Refuge in Allah from Hunger and Treachery

SUMMARY: Seeking refuge in Allah from hunger and treachery.

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah used to supplicate: "Allahumma inni a'udhu bika minal- ju'i, fa-innahu bi'sad-daji'u; wa a'udhu bika minal-khiyanati, fa- innaha bi'satil-bitanah' O Allah! I seek refuge in You from hunger; surely, it is the worst companion. And I seek refuge in You from treachery; surely, it is a bad inner trait". Abu Dawud.
وعن أبي هريرة، رضي الله عنه، قال‏:‏ كان رسول الله ، يقول‏:‏ ‏ "‏اللهم إني أعوذ بك من الجوع، فإنه بئس الضجيع، وأعوذ بك من الخيانة، فإنها بئست البطانة‏"‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه أبو داود بإسناد صحيح‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is narrated by Abu Hurairah, a companion of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. In this hadith, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is teaching us to seek refuge in Allah from hunger and treachery. He said that hunger is the worst companion because it can lead to desperation and despair, while treachery is a bad inner trait because it can lead to dishonesty and betrayal. By seeking refuge in Allah from these two things, we are asking Him for protection against their negative effects on our lives. We should also strive to be honest with ourselves and others so that we do not fall into treacherous behavior or actions. Additionally, we should strive to provide for ourselves so that we do not have to rely on others for sustenance or become desperate due to lack of food or resources.
