[Machine] I came to Abu Mas'ud and said, "Abu Mas'ud, inform me about your recitation of the last two verses from Surah Al-Baqarah." He said, "Yes." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever recites these two verses in one night, they will be sufficient for him."

أَتَيْتُ أَبَا مَسْعُودٍ فَقُلْتُ أَبَا مَسْعُودٍ بَلَغَنِي عَنْكَ فِي الْآيَتَيْنِ مِنْ آخِرِ سُورَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «الْآيَتَانِ مِنْ آخِرِ سُورَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ مَنْ قَرَأَ بِهِمَا فِي لَيْلَةٍ كَفَتَاهُ»

The sufficiency of the last two verses of Surat al-Baqarah

muslim:807a – Aḥmad b. Yūnus > Zuhayr > Manṣūr > Ibrāhīm > ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. Yazīd

I met Abu Masud at the ˹Sacred˺ House, and I said, “A hadith has reached me from you concerning the two verses in Surat al-Baqarah.” He said, “Yes. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The two verses from the end of Surah al-Baqarah—whoever recites them in a night, they will suffice him."”

مسلم:٨٠٧a – وَحَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ حَدَّثَنَا مَنْصُورٌ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ قَالَ

لَقِيتُ أَبَا مَسْعُودٍ عِنْدَ الْبَيْتِ، فَقُلْتُ: حَدِيثٌ بَلَغَنِي عَنْكَ فِي الآيَتَيْنِ فِي سُورَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ، فَقَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «الآيَتَانِ مِنْ آخِرِ سُورَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ، مَنْ قَرَأَهُمَا فِي لَيْلَةٍ كَفَتَاهُ».
