says that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon
him) said:"When you want to set out on a journey, you haverecite
Soorat al-Kaafiroon, an-Nasr, al-Ikhlaas, al-Falaq and an-Naas, but in
one go, and start with the basmalah and end with the basmalah." We
need an answer to this in the light of the Qur'aan and Sunnah.
Praise be to Allaah.
The text of the hadeeth referred to in the question is as follows:
It was narrated that Jubayribn Mut'im said: The Messenger of Allah
(blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said to me: "O Jubayr, when
you set out on a journey, would you like to be the best of your
companions in appearance and quantity of provisions?" I said: Yes, may
my father and mother be sacrificed for you. He said: "Recite these
five soorahs: 'Qul ya ayyuhal kaafiroon' [al-Kaafiroon 109], 'Idha
ja'a nasr Allahi wal fath' [al-Nasr 110], Qul Huwa Allahu ahad
[al-Ikhlaas 112], Qul a'oodhi bi rabbi'l-falaq [al-Falaq 113] and Qul
a'oodhu bi raabi'n-naas [an-Naas 114]. Start your recitation by saying
Bismillah ir-Rahmaan ir-Raheem and end your recitation by saying
Bismillah ir-Rahmaan ir-Raheem." Jubayr said: I was rich and had a
great deal of wealth, and I used to set out with whomever Allah willed
I should set out with on a journey, andI would be the worst of them in
appearance and the least in terms of provisions. From the time the
Messenger of Allah (blessing and peace of Allah be upon him) taught me
it, I have never stopped reciting them, andI am one of the best of
them in appearance and have the most provisions, until I come back
from my journey.
This was narrated by Abu Ya'la in his Musnad, 13/339, hadeeth no 7419.
This is a da'eef (weak) hadeeth; its isnaad includes unknown narrators.
Al-Haythami said concerning it in Majma' az-Zawaa'id (10/134): (Its
isnaad) includes people who I do not know.
Shaykh al-Albaani said concerning it in as-Silsilah ad-Da'eefah
(6963): (it is) munkar.
Based on that, it is not valid to quote this hadeethas evidence to
suggest that it is mustahabb to recite any soorahs of the Qur'aan
before travelling. By the same token, it is not valid to quote it as
evidence for saying the basmalah at the beginningof each soorah.
And Allah knows best.
