Remaining Sunnahs and etiquettes of travelling

*   Keep a mirror, kohl, a comb and Miswak with you (on the journey) as it is a Sunnah. (Bahar-e-Shari’at, part 1, vol. 6, p. 1051)

*   When travelling uphill or when climbing the stairs, or when the bus, etc., is moving upwards, then say ‘اَللّٰہُ اَکْبَر’, and when going downhill or down the stairs, say ‘سُـبْحٰـنَ الـلّٰــه’.

*   Recite ‘اَعُوْذُ بِکَلِمَاتِ اللّٰہِ التَّامَّاتِ مِنْ شَرِّمَا خَلَق^ط’ when getting off at your destination. Translation: I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah Almighty from the evil of all creation. اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه you will be protected from every harm. (Hisn Haseen, p. 82)

*   There should be no slacking in offering Salah even during the journey.

*   If the bus breaks down on the journey, do not put your Hereafter at risk by cursing the driver or the owners of the bus. Rather, be patient and remain occupied in reciting Salat upon the Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and Zikr, in order to attain Paradise.

*   In the case of the bus being overcrowded, offer your seat to any sick or weak individual that you may see, with the intention of reward.
