Dua Said After the Tashahhud & Before The Salaam

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “When any one of you has finished the last tashahhud, let him seek refuge with Allaah from four things and say:


Allaahumma Innee A’uthu bika min Athaabil-Qabr,
‘O Allaah, I take refuge in You from the punishment of the grave,

Wa min ‘Athaabi Jahannam,
From the torment of the Fire,

Wa min Fitnatil Mahyaa Wal-Mamaat,
From the trials and tribulations of life and death

Wa min Sharri Fitnatil Maseehid-Dajjaal.
And from the evil affliction of the Al-Maseeh Ad-Dajjaal.’
