You’ve indicated that a person leaving on a journey should recite, "Innallazi Farada Alaikal Qur'aana LaRaaduka Ila Maa'd", from Surah Qasas (Aayat 85). When should this be recited?

Question

Before commencing the trip, at the time of Salaat-us-Safar? Also is there a related Hadith?

Answer

The Du'aa should be recited before commencing the journey.
