He said, โIf anyone of you thinks of doing any job he should offer a two Rakat prayer other than the compulsory ones and say (after the prayer):

Allahumma, in kunta taโlam anna hadha-l-amra Khairun li fi dini wa maโashi waโaqibati amri (or โajili amri waโajilihi) Faqdirhu wa yas-sirhu li thumma barik li Fihi, Wa in kunta taโlamu anna hadha-lamra shar-run li fi dini wa maโashi waโaqibati amri (or fiโajili amri wa ajilihi) Fasrifhu anni was-rifni anhu. Waqdir li al-khaira haithu kana Thumma ardini bihi.โ
(O Allah! I ask guidance from Your knowledge, And Power from Your Might and I ask for Your great blessings. You are capable and I am not. You know and I do not and You know the unseen. O Allah! If You know that this job is good for my religion and my subsistence and in my Hereafterโ(or said: If it is better for my present and later needs)โThen You ordain it for me and make it easy for me to get, And then bless me in it, and if You know that this job is harmful to me In my religion and subsistence and in the Hereafterโ(or said: If it is worse for my present and later needs)โThen keep it away from me and let me be away from it. And ordain for me whatever is good for me, And make me satisfied with it). The Prophet added that then the person should name (mention) his need.
Sahih Al-Bukhari โ Book 21 Hadith 263
