سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيُّ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ

White I was travelling with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ between al-Juhfah and al-Abwa', a wind and intense darkness enveloped us, whereupon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ began to seek refuge in Allah, reciting: "I seek refuge in the Lord of the dawn," and "I seek refuge in the Lord of men." He then said: Uqbah, use them when seeking refuge in Allah, for no one can use anything to compare with them for the purpose. Uqbah added: I heard him reciting them when he led the people in prayer. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1463)

بَيْنَا أَنَا أَسِيرُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بَيْنَ الْجُحْفَةِ وَالْأَبْوَاءِ إِذْ غَشِيَتْنَا رِيحٌ وَظُلْمَةٌ فَجَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَتَعَوَّذُ بِأَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ وَأَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ النَّاسِ وَيَقُولُ «يَا عُقْبَةُ تَعَوَّذْ فَمَا تَعَوَّذَ مُتَعَوِّذٌ بِمِثْلِهَا» قَالَ ثُمَّ سَمِعْتُهُ يَؤُمُّنَا بِهِمَا فِي الصَّلَاةِ
