أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ أَسْلَمَ عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ قَالَ
اتَّبَعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ رَاكِبٌ فَوَضَعْتُ يَدَيَّ عَلَى قَدَمِهِ فَقُلْتُ أَقْرِئْنِي سُورَةَ هُودٍ أَوْ سُورَةَ يُوسُفَ فَقَالَ «لَنْ تَقْرَأَ شَيْئًا أَبْلَغَ عِنْدَ اللهِ مِنْ قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ»

✧ I followed the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was riding, and I placed my hand on his foot and said: Teach me Sūrat Hūd or Sūrat Yūsuf. He said: “You will never recite anything more effective with Allah than: ‘Say: I seek refuge in the Lord of the daybreak.’”
