وَ كَانَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ إِذَا دَخَلَ اَلْخَلاَءَ يُقَنِّعُ رَأْسَهُ وَ يَقُولُ فِي نَفْسِهِ: « بِسْمِ اَللَّهِ وَ بِاللَّهِ وَ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اَللَّهُ رَبِّ أَخْرِجْ عَنِّي اَلْأَذَى سَرْحاً بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ وَ اِجْعَلْنِي لَكَ مِنَ اَلشَّاكِرِينَ فِيمَا تَصْرِفُهُ عَنِّي مِنَ اَلْأَذَى وَ اَلْغَمِّ اَلَّذِي لَوْ حَبَسْتَهُ عَنِّي هَلَكْتُ لَكَ اَلْحَمْدُ اِعْصِمْنِي مِنْ شَرِّ مَا فِي هَذِهِ اَلْبُقْعَةِ وَ أَخْرِجْنِي مِنْهَا سَالِماً وَ حُلْ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَ طَاعَةِ اَلشَّيْطَانِ اَلرَّجِيمِ.
When Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (a.s) would enter the restroom, he would cover his head and say privately: Bismillahi wa billahi wa la ilaha illa Allah, Rabb akhrij ‘anni al-adha sarhan bighayri hisabin, wa aj‘alni laka mina ash-shakireena fima tAsrifuhu ‘anni minal-adha wa al-ghammi alladhi law habastahu ‘anni halaktu. Laka al-hamdu, i‘simni min sharri ma fi hadhihi al-buq‘ah, wa akhrijni minha saliman, wa hul bayni wa bayna ta‘ati ash-shaytan ar-rajeem "In the name of Allah (swt) and by Allah (swt). There is no god but Allah (swt). O’ Lord (azj), remove harm from me completely without difficulty, and make me among those who are grateful for the relief You grant me from harm and distress, which, if You withheld, would cause my destruction. Praise be to You. Protect me from the evil of what may be in this place, and let me leave safely. Place a barrier between me and obedience to the accursed devil."
