Safety & Health - Back to basic

Salam buddy,
In safety we have a bunch of safety theory on how accident could happen. You may name it such as Heinrich's Safety pyramid theory,  multiple causes theory, Domino effect theory bla.. bla bla. Then we learned how to identify the immediate causes, basic causes and system needs. Finally we move towards hi-tech engineering control until rhetoric admin control.We spend more money day by day. But actually we always forgot that we are just a servant of Allah. Yes accidents can be prevented  but everything is under His control.

So lets back to basic.
1. Start your work with Basmallah.
(a) "Any work started without reciting bismillah ar-rahman ar-rahim is without blessing" (Al hadith).
(b) Saying Bismillah Is Recommended Before Eating: The Prophet (saw) said, "Say Bismillah, eat with your right hand and eat what is in front of you." (Muttafaqun Alaih).
(c) Saying Bismillah Is Recommended When Leaving The House: The Messenger Of Allah (saw) said, "If anyone of you when leaving the house says In the name of Allah, I trust in Allah, there is no power and might except from Allah. Your needs shall be fulfilled, you shall be saved from difficulties and hardships. Shaitaan hearing these words leaves him." [Al-Tirmidzi] 


2. Pray to Allah for your safety. Examples of Dua' are such:

So let us return to basic of safety. Pray to Allah the Almighty. He will bless us and make us, our family, wife or fiancĂ©e, safe everyday, every where. InsyaAllah. Amin.
