Duaas when bidding someone farewell

One should recite the following Duaas when bidding someone farewell at the time he departs on a journey.

Duaa One:

أَستَودِعُ اللهَ دِينَكَ وَأَمَانَتَكَ وَخَوَاتِيمَ عَمَلِكَ

I place your deen, your trust (wife, children and subordinates) and your final actions (at the time of death) in the care and trust of Allah Ta’ala

عن سالم أن ابن عمر كان يقول للرجل إذا أراد سفرا ادن مني أودعك كما كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم يودعنا فيقول أستودع الله دينك وأمانتك وخواتيم عملك  (ترمذي رقم 3443)

Hazrat Saalim (Rahmatullahi Alaihi) reports that Hazrat ibn Umar (Radhiyallahu Anhuma) would address a person embarking on a journey with the following words: “Come close to me so that I may bid you farewell in the manner that Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) would bid us farewell (when we would depart on a journey). He would then say:

أَستَودِعُ اللهَ دِينَكَ وَأَمَانَتَكَ وَخَوَاتِيمَ عَمَلِكَ

Duaa Two:

زَوَّدَكَ اللَّهُ التَّقْوَى وَغَفَرَ ذَنْبَكَ وَيَسَّرَ لَكَ الخَيْرَ حَيْثُمَا كُنْتَ

May Allah Ta‘ala grant you the provision of taqwa (during your journey), and forgive your sins, and may He make carrying out good deeds easy for you wherever you are

عن أنس، قال: جاء رجل إلى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال: يا رسول الله، إني أريد سفرا فزودني. قال: زودك الله التقوى، قال: زدني، قال: وغفر ذنبك قال: زدني بأبي أنت وأمي، قال: ويسر لك الخير حيثما كنت (ترمذي رقم 3444)

Hazrat Anas (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) reports that once a person came to Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) and said, “O Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam), I intend embarking on a journey, thus make a duaa for me which will serve as my provisions during the journey.” Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) replied, “May Allah Ta‘ala grant you the provision of taqwa.” The person said, “Grant me more (duaa).” Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said, “And forgive your sins.” The person said, “Grant me more (duaa), may my father and mother be sacrificed for you.” Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) replied, “And may He make carrying out good deeds easy for you wherever you are.”
