Supplication for walking to the mosque

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What does the Muslim say when he leaves his home for prayer in the mosque?

Answer:
It is prescribed for him to say:
O Allah! I seek refuge in Thee lest I stray or be led astray, or slip or made to slip, or cause injustice, or suffer injustice, or do wrong, or have wrong done to me.باسم الله توكلت على الله، لا حول ولا قوة إلا بالله، اللهم إني أعوذ بك أن أضل أو أضل، أو أزل أو أزل، أو أظلم أو أظلم، أو أجهل أو يجهل علي
Sunan Abi Dawud 5094Sahih (Al-Albani)
, this is how the hadith came from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). It is recommended for the one going out to the mosque, or to other places such as the market or elsewhere, to say this when he leaves his home for the market, or to visit one of his brothers, or to the mosque. He says:
O Allah! I seek refuge in Thee lest I stray or be led astray, or slip or made to slip, or cause injustice, or suffer injustice, or do wrong, or have wrong done to me.باسم الله، توكلت على الله، لا حول ولا قوة إلا بالله، اللهم إني أعوذ بك أن أضل أو أضل، أو أزل أو أزل، أو أظلم أو أظلم، أو أجهل أو يجهل علي
Sunan Abi Dawud 5094Sahih (Al-Albani)
.
It is also recommended that he say, in his intention to go to the mosque, along with this:
O Allah, place light in my heart, and light in my hearing, and light in my sight, and light in my tongue, and light in my hair, and light in my skin, and light in my bones, and light in my flesh, and light in my blood. O Allah, place light before me, and light behind me, and light to my right, and light to my left, and light above me, and light beneath me. O Allah, give me light, and increase me in light, and make light great for me.اللهم اجعل في قلبي نورًا وفي سمعي نورًا وفي بصري نورًا وفي لساني نورًا وفي شعري نورًا وفي بشري نورًا وفي عظمي نورًا وفي لحمي نورًا وفي دمي نورًا، اللهم اجعل أمامي نورًا وخلفي نورًا وعن يميني نورًا وعن شمالي نورًا، وفوقي نورًا وتحتي نورًا، اللهم أعطني نورًا وزدني نورًا وأعظم لي نورًا
. All of this came in the hadith from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), from the hadith of Ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him). This last supplication was narrated by al-Bukhari in the Sahih, and it is a great supplication when the servant intends to pray. Yes.
