Imam Baqir (peace be upon him): Imam Baqir (peace be upon him) said to one of his companions: "Whenever, by the will and determination of Allah, you decide to make a sea journey, recite the very words of Allah the Mighty and Majestic [which Nuh (peace be upon him) said when boarding the ship]: بِسْمِ اللهِ مَجْراها وَ مُرْساها إِنَّ رَبِّی لَغَفُورٌ رَحِیم [In the name of Allah be its sailing and its anchoring; most surely my Lord is Forgiving, Merciful]. And if the sea becomes turbulent, lean on your right side and say: With the help of Allah, and in the name of Allah, O sea! By the tranquility of Allah, stop from movement and turbulence, and settle by the settling of Allah, and be still by the permission of Allah! For no movement or power comes about except by the will of Allah the Mighty and Majestic."
