The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) sought refuge with Allah from hunger, which is indeed an evil companion because it prevents one's heart and body from feeling comfortable. He also sought refuge from betraying the trust of people and the trust of Allah, for, indeed, it is an evil trait that is hidden in a person's heart.Categories
