There was a gathering during the day where people were waiting. Then the Prophet's stay and my stay were over, so he caught up with me and grabbed my shoulder and said, "Say, I seek refuge in the Lord of the daybreak." So I said, "Say, I seek refuge in the Lord of the daybreak." The Prophet ﷺ recited it and I recited it with him. Then he said, "Say, I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind." The Prophet ﷺ recited it and I recited it with him. He then said, "When you pray, recite both of them, for indeed you will not recite anything like them."

أَخْبَرَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ ابْنِ عُلَيَّةَ عَنِ الْجُرَيْرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ الشِّخِّيرِ عَنْ رَجُلٍ قَالَ

كَانَ فِي مَسِيرٍ وَفِي الظُّهْرِ قِلَّةٌ وَالنَّاسُ يَعْتَقِبُونَ فَحَانَتْ نَزْلَةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَنَزْلَتِي فَلَحِقَنِي مِنْ بَعْدِي فَضَرَبَ مَنْكِبَيَّ وَقَالَ قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ فَقُلْتُ قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ فَقَرَأَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَرَأْتُهَا مَعَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الناس فَقَرَأَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَرَأْتُهَا معه فقال «إِذَا صَلَّيْتُ فَاقْرَأْ بِهِمَا؛ فَإِنَّكَ لَنْ تَقْرَأَ بِمِثْلِهِمَا»
