Tafsir Ibn Kathir -> Surah Al-Falaq and An-Naas -> The Virtues of Surahs Al-Falaq and An-Nas

In his Sahih, Muslim recorded on the authority of `Uqbah bin `Amir that the Messenger of Allah said,

«أَلَمْ تَرَ آيَاتٍ أُنْزِلَتْ هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةَ لَمْ يُرَ مِثْلُهُنَّ قَطُّ:

(Do you not see that there have been Ayat revealed to me tonight the like of which has not been seen before) They are

﴿قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ ﴾»

(Say: "I seek refuge with, the Lord of Al-Falaq.'')(113:1) and;

﴿قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ النَّاسِ ﴾

(Say: "I seek refuge with the Lord of mankind.'') (114:1)) This Hadith was recorded by Ahmad, At-Tirmidhi and An-Nasa'i. At-Tirmidhi said, "Hasan Sahih.''
