Translated from Ustadz Firanda Andirja's Indonesian commentary (Bekal Islam). Quoted verses, hadith and duas keep their Arabic; where the commentary gave its own Indonesian rendering of them, that rendering is not translated and is marked [translation not shown].
This dua is recited when a person boards a vehicle, whether a land, sea, or air vehicle, as a form of gratitude to Allah, who has subjected that vehicle for people to use.
