A Quranic supplication (Surah az-Zukhruf, 43:13) recited in the context of travel.
Subhanal-ladhi sakh-khara lana hadha wa ma kunna lahu muqrineen
Glory be to Him who has subjected this to us, and we could never have it (by our efforts).
Source: Surah az-Zukhruf, 43:13. This is a verse of the Quran — the highest source of authority in Islam.
Recite this when boarding any vehicle — car, plane, bus, animal. The Sunnah of naming Allah before motion turns the act of going somewhere into a small remembrance.
This dua is drawn from az-Zukhruf. The Quran preserves the supplications of the Prophets themselves — reciting their exact wording is itself a form of following their example. The dua of the traveller is considered a time when Allah is especially responsive — the Prophet (peace be upon him) listed it among the three duas that are not rejected. The travel supplications are meant to keep that responsiveness in the traveller's mind.
