Answer: The Sahabah Radhiyallahu Anhum would recite the following Dua at the commencement of a new month/year:
اللهم أَدْخِلْهُ عَلينا بِالأمْنِ وَالإيمان وَالسَّلامَةِ وَالإسْلام وَرِضْوَانٍ مِّنَ الرَّحْمن وجوارٍ مِّنَ الشَّيْطان

Question: What are the rules pertaining to placing a Sutra in front of a person performing Salaah?

Answer: The Sutra is a stick which is placed in front a Mussalli (worshipper) as a barrier to allow people to pass.

The Messenger Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said:
اذا صلى احدكم فليصل الى سترة (رواه ابو داؤد)
“When you perform Salaah, use a Sutrah” [Abu Dawood]

A person performing Salaah in an open place or in such a place (in a Masjid) where people may need to pass in front of him, he should place a Sutra in front of himself.

The sutra should be at least an arm’s length and not longer than three arm’s length

The Sutra of the Imam will be sufficient for the followers.

And Allah Knows Best
