Upon entering the marketplace, it is recommended for one to read the following supplication [in green]:

On the authority of ʿUmar b. al-Khaṭṭāb [who narrated] that the Messenger of Allāh, may the praise and protection of Allāh be upon him, said:

“Whoever enters the marketplace and says, ‘There is none worthy of worship except Allāh alone without any partners, to Him belongs the dominion and to Him belongs all praise, He gives life and causes death, He is the All-Living and does not die, in His Hand is all goodness, and He has power over all things’, Allāh will write a million good deeds for him, and wipe a million evil deeds away from him, and raise a million ranks for him.”

Reported by al-Tirmidhī.

The Prophet ﷺ used to ask Allāh for beautiful character and manners despite him being the best role model for mankind.

Muḥāḍir Abū al-Muwarriʿ narrated us: ʿĀṣim narrated to us: from ʿAwsajah b. al-Rammāḥ: from ʿAbd Allāh b. Abī al-Hudhayl:

On the authority of Ibn Masʿūd [who narrated] that the Messenger of Allāh, may the praise and protection of Allāh be upon him, used to say:

“O Allāh, You have beautified my body, and so beautify my character as well.”
