أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَحْمَدُ بْنُ شُعَيْبٍ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَسِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي أَسِيدٍ، عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ

قَالَ أَصَابَنَا طَشٌّ وَظُلْمَةٌ فَانْتَظَرْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِيُصَلِّيَ بِنَا ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ كَلَامًا مَعْنَاهُ فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِيُصَلِّيَ بِنَا فَقَالَ: «قُلْ». فَقُلْتُ: مَا أَقُولُ قَالَ: «قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ» وَالْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ حِينَ تُمْسِي وَحِينَ تُصْبِحُ ثَلَاثًا يَكْفِيكَ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ»

His father said: “It was raining and dark, and we were waiting for the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) to lead us in prayer. Then the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) came out to lead us in prayer and he said: ‘Say.’ I said: ‘What should I say?’ He said: ‘Say: He is Allah, (the) One and Al-Muawwadhatain in the evening and in the morning, three times, and that will suffice you against everything.’”

আবু আবদুর রহমান আহমদ ইবন শুআয়ব (রহঃ) ... মুআয ইবন আবদুল্লাহ্ তাঁর পিতার মাধ্যমে বর্ণনা করেন যে, একবার কিছু বৃষ্টিপাতের পর চতুর্দিক অন্ধকার হয়ে গেল। আমরা আমাদের নিয়ে সালাত আদায়ের জন্য রাসূলুল্লাহ্ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম এর অপেক্ষা করছিলাম।

তারপর তিনি এমন কিছু বললেনঃ যার মর্ম হলো, পরে তিনি আমাদের নিয়ে সালাত আদায়ার্থে বের হলেন। তিনি বললেনঃ বল! আমি বললামঃ কি বলবো? তিনি বললেনঃ কুল হুয়াল্লাহু আহাদ, কুল আউযু বিরাব্বিল ফালাক, কুল আউযু বিরাব্বিন্নাস এবং সকাল-সন্ধ্যায় তিনবার করে। সকল বিপদাপদে এটাই তোমার জন্য যথেষ্ট।

What it means

'Abdullah ibn Khubayb (may Allah be pleased with him), the great Companion, reports that they went out one night when it was raining heavily and it was extremely dark, looking for the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) to lead them in prayer and they found him. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "Say," i.e., recite, but he recited nothing.

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) repeated his words to him, so, ‘Abdullah said: What should I recite, O Messenger of Allah? Thereupon, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: Recite Surat al-Ikhlās {Say: “He is Allah, the One”} and Al-Mu‘awwidhatān: Surat {Say, “I seek refuge with the Lord of the daybreak} and Surat {Say, “I seek refuge with the Lord of mankind} in the evening and morning three times and they will protect you from all evils and guard you against all harms.

What it teaches

  • It is recommended to recite Surat al-Ikhlās and Al-Mu‘awwidhatān in the morning and evening, as they provide protection against all kinds of evil.
  • The merit of reciting Surat al-Ikhlās and Al-Mu‘awwidhatān.
