"عَنِ ابْن مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: إِذَا كَانَ عَلى أحَدِكُمْ إِمَامٌ يَخَافُ بَطْشَهُ وَظُلْمَهُ فَلْيَقُلْ: "اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ السَّمَاوَاتِ السَّبْع وَرَبَّ العَرْش الْعَظيم كُنْ لى جَارًا مِنْ فُلَانٍ وَأَشَيَاعِهِ مِنَ الْجِنِّ وَالإِنْس أَنْ يَفْرُطُوا عَلَىَّ وَأَنْ يَطْغَوْا، عَزَّ جَارُكَ، وَجَلَّ ثَنَاؤكَ وَلَا إِلهَ غَيْرُكَ، فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَصلُ إِلَيْكُمْ مِنْهُ شَىْءٌ تَكْرَهُونَهُ".

"From Ibn Mas'ud, he said: If one of you has a ruler whose force and oppression he fears, let him say: 'O Allah, Lord of the seven heavens and Lord of the mighty Throne, be a protector for me against so-and-so and his followers among the jinn and mankind, lest they overstep against me or transgress. Mighty is Your protection, exalted is Your praise, and there is no god but You.' For nothing that you dislike will reach you from him."
