What to say when entering the Home
“بِسْمِ اللهِ وَلَجْنَا، وَ بِسْمِ اللهِ خَرَجْنَا، وَعَلَى رَبِّنَا تَوَكَّلْنَا”.
Bismillaahi walajnaa, wa bismillaahi kharajnaa, wa ‘alaaRabblnaa tawakkalnaa
In the Name of Allah we enter , in the Name of Allah we leave , and upon our Lord we depend [then say As-Salaamu ‘Alaykum to those present].
(Reference: Abu Dawud. Muslim (Hadith no. 2018) says that one should mention the Name of Allah when entering the home and when beginning to eat; and that the devil, hearing this, says: “There is no shelter for us here tonight and no food.”)
