Adhkār Before Sleeping:
قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : من قرأ بالآيتين من آخر سورة البقرة في ليلة كفتاه.
The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “Whoever recites the last two verses of Sūrah al-Baqarah at night, they will suffice him.”
● [رواه البخاري ومسلم]
Ibn al-Qayyim Raḥimahullāh said: “Suffice him for any evil that may harm him.”
● [الوابل الصيب ١٣٢]
‘Ā`ishah رضي الله عنها reported: “The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would get ready for sleep, he would blow into his hands, recite the two chapters of refuge (Sūrah al-Falaq and Sūrah an-Nās), and he would wipe his hands over his body.”
