أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ أَسْلَمَ عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ قَالَ
أَتَيْتُ 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 came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was riding, and I placed my hands on his foot and said: "Teach me Surah Hud or Surah Yusuf." He said: "You will never recite anything more effective with Allah than 'Say: I seek refuge with the Lord of the daybreak.'"
