قَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ بْنِ مُوسَى حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ حَبَّانَ، قَالَ:

إِنَّ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ ؓ كَانَ يُؤَرَّقُ أَوْ أَصَابَهُ أَرَقٌ فَشَكَا ذَلِكَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَتَعَوَّذَ عِنْدَ مَنَامِهِ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِنْ غَضَبِهِ وَعِقَابِهِ وَشَرِّ عِبَادِهِ، وَمِنْ هَمَزَاتِ الشَّيَاطِينِ وَأَنْ يَحْضُرُونِ

✧ Khalid b. al-Walid ؓ was suffering from sleeplessness, or insomnia afflicted him, and he complained of that to the Prophet ﷺ. He commanded him to seek refuge at the time of sleeping with Allah's perfect words from His wrath and punishment, from the evil of His servants, and from the whisperings of the devils and that they should come near.
