“Hirz of Abu Dujaanah”
Question
Is there any authenticity to the “Hirz of Abu Dujaanah”?
Answer
The Hirz of Abu Dujaanah is unauthentic and unreliable. Commentators of Hadith have mentioned it to be fabricated. There are narrators that have been omitted in the chain of narrators and most of the narrators are unknown. There is no Sahaabi named “Moosa”.
We therefore advise you to abstain from reading or circulating it. For protection against Jinn and all evil, one should recite the Manzil and the three Quls morning and evening.
