Ahaadeeth and Sunnats of
Traveling
It is Sunnah to meet and
shake hands
before departing for a
journey
28.) Nabi (Sallallaahu
‘alayhi waSallam)
said : “When anyone intends traveling, he should meet his fellow brothers, for
their supplications added to his own supplications will only be a means of
additional goodness.”
[Hazrat Abu
Hurairah (RA) ]
Note :
One should meet one’s family members and associates before traveling and
request them to make dua. This would go a long way in ensuring the well being
of the traveler.
