Ahmad ibn Muhammad has narrated from Ali ibn al-Hassan from al- ‘Abbas ibn ‘Amir from Muhammad abu Jamilah from Sa’D al-Iskaf who has said the following: “I heard the Imam (a.s.) saying, ‘Whoever says these words I guarantee that scorpions and small vermin will not harm him, ‘I seek protection through such words of Allah that no virtuous or wicked person is able to bypass, I seek protection thereby against the evil of whatever He has spread and settled (on earth), against the evil of all walking things on earth under His control.

My Lord has the straight path.’” ضعيف - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (12/439))
