Verses were revealed to me, the like of which has never been seen; Al-Mu‘awwidhatayn
‘Uqbah ibn ‘Āmir (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said to me:
"Verses were revealed to me, the like of which has never been seen; Al-Mu‘awwidhatayn."
«أُنْزِلَ -أَوْ أُنْزِلَتْ- عَلَيَّ آيَاتٌ لَمْ يُرَ مِثْلُهُنَّ قَطُّ، الْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ».
‘Uqbah ibn ‘Āmir (may Allah be pleased with him) informed that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: Allah revealed to me tonight verses, the like of which have never been seen—meaning in seeking refuge— and they are the two Mu‘awwidhats: Surat al-Falaq and Surat an-Nās.
Pointing out the great merit of these two Surahs.
Encouraging seeking refuge with them from all evils.
