The Mi‘wadhatayn [al-Falaq and an-Naas] protect against the Shaytaan, the evil eye, destructive envy (hasad) and all other evils. It was narrated from ‘Uqbah ibn ‘Aamir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “Seek refuge with them [the Mi‘wadhatayn], for you will not seek refuge with anything else like them. ” Narrated by Abu Dawood (1563); classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood.
It was narrated from ‘Abdullah ibn Khubayb (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said to him: “Say: Qul Huwa Allahu ahad [i.e., Soorat al-Ikhlaas] and al-Mu‘awwidhatayn [i.e., Soorat al-Falaq and Soorat an-Naas] three times every evening and every morning, and they will suffice you against everything.”
Reciting Soorat al-Ikhlaas, Soorat al-Falaq and Soorat al-Naas. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to recite them when going to sleep, and he would blow into his hands and then wipe them over whatever he could reach of his body. It was narrated from ‘Aa’ishah that every night when the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) went to bed, he would cup his hands together, blow into them then recite into them Qul Huwa Allaahu ahad, Qul a’oodhu bi Rabb il-falaq and Qul ‘aoodhu bi Rabb il-naas, then he would wipe as much as he could reach of his body, starting with his head and face and the front of his body. And he would do that three times.
