A`ūdhu billāhi minash-shayṭānir-rajīm.
Seeking refuge with Allah against him (i.e. by saying I seek refuge in Allah from Satan the outcast).
Reference:
Abu Dawud 1/206, At-Tirmidhi. See also Al-Albani, Sahih At-Tirmidhi 1/77,
and Surat Al-Mu'minun, 23:98-9.
--
The call to prayer - 'Athan.
Reference:
Muslim 1/291, Al-Bukhari 1/151.
--
Saying words of Allah's remembrance (Thikr) and recitation of the Qur'an.
Reference:
"Do not turn your homes into graveyards, surely the Devil flees from the
house in which Surat Al-Baqarah is read," Muslim 1/539. The Devil is also
driven out by the invocations for morning and evening, those that are said
before sleeping and upon waking up, those for entering and leaving the
house, including those for entering and leaving the mosque, and by many
other authentic invocations taught to us by the Prophet (ﷺ) such as the
reading of 'Ayatul-Kursi, (Al-Baqarah 2:255), and the last two 'Ayat of
Surat Al-Baqarah before going to sleep. Whoever says: "There is none worthy
of worship but Allah alone, Who has no partner, His is the dominion and His
is the praise, and he is Able to do all things," one hundred times, it will
be a protection for him from the Devil throughout the day.'
