"While I was leading the Messenger of Allah [SAW] on his mount on a military campaign, he said: 'O 'Uqbah, say!' I listened, then he said: 'O 'Uqbah, say!' I listened, then he said it a third time. I said: 'What should I say?' He said: 'Say: He is Allah, (the) One...' and he recited the Surah to the end. Then he recited: 'Say: I seek refuge with (Allah) the Lord of the daybreak...' and I recited it with him until the end. Then he recited: 'Say: I seek refuge with (Allah) the Lord of mankind...' and I recited it with him until the end. Then he said: 'No one ever sought refuge (with Allah) by means of anything like them.'"  

حَدَّثَنِي الْقَعْنَبِيُّ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ خُبَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ قَالَ بَيْنَا أَنَا أَقُودُ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَاحِلَتَهُ فِي غَزْوَةٍ إِذْ قَالَ يَا عُقْبَةُ قُلْ فَاسْتَمَعْتُ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا عُقْبَةُ قُلْ فَاسْتَمَعْتُ فَقَالَهَا الثَّالِثَةَ فَقُلْتُ مَا أَقُولُ فَقَالَ { قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ } فَقَرَأَ السُّورَةَ حَتَّى خَتَمَهَا ثُمَّ قَرَأَ { قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ } وَقَرَأْتُ مَعَهُ حَتَّى خَتَمَهَا ثُمَّ قَرَأَ { قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ النَّاسِ } فَقَرَأْتُ مَعَهُ حَتَّى خَتَمَهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا تَعَوَّذَ بِمِثْلِهِنَّ أَحَدٌ  

[Machine] Narrated al-Qa'nabi, on the authority of Abd al-Aziz ibn Muhammad, on the authority of Abdullah ibn Salman, on the authority of Mu'adh ibn Abdullah ibn Khubayb, on the authority of his father, on the authority of Uqbah ibn Amir al-Juhani, that he said: While I was riding with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in one of his campaigns, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Say, O Uqbah." I said, "What shall I say?" He repeated it three times, and I said, "What shall I say?" He said, "Say, 'He is Allah, [who is] One.'" So, he recited the Surah until he completed it. Then, he recited, 'Say, 'I seek refuge in the Lord of daybreak.'" I recited it with him until he completed it. Then, he recited, 'Say, 'I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind.'" I recited it with him until he completed it. Then, he said, "By what do you seek refuge?"  

ثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ ثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِِ بْنِ سَلْمَانَ عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ خُبَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ بَيْنَمَا أَنَا أَقُودُ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ رَاحِلَتََهُ فِي غَزْوَةٍ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «قُلْ يَا عُقْبَةُ» قُلْتُ مَا أَقُولُ؟ قَالَهَا الثَّالِثَةَ قُلْتُ مَا أَقُولُ؟ قَالَ قُلْ هُوَ اللهُ أَحَدٌ فَقَرَأَ السُّورَةَ حَتَّى خَتَمَهَا ثُمَّ قَرَأَ قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ وَقَرَأْتُ مَعَهُ حَتَّى خَتَمَهَا ثُمَّ قَرَأَ قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ النَّاسِ وَقَرَأْتُ مَعَهُ حَتَّى خَتَمَهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ «مَا تُعُوِّذَ بِمِثْلِهِنَّ»
