أَخْبَرَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ ابْنِ عُلَيَّةَ عَنِ الْجُرَيْرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ الشِّخِّيرِ عَنْ رَجُلٍ قَالَ
كَانَ فِي مَسِيرٍ وَفِي الظُّهْرِ قِلَّةٌ وَالنَّاسُ يَعْتَقِبُونَ فَحَانَتْ نَزْلَةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَنَزْلَتِي فَلَحِقَنِي مِنْ بَعْدِي فَضَرَبَ مَنْكِبَيَّ وَقَالَ قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ فَقُلْتُ قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ فَقَرَأَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَرَأْتُهَا مَعَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الناس فَقَرَأَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَرَأْتُهَا معه فقال «إِذَا صَلَّيْتُ فَاقْرَأْ بِهِمَا؛ فَإِنَّكَ لَنْ تَقْرَأَ بِمِثْلِهِمَا»

✧ He was on a journey, and at noon there was a lull, and the people were taking turns riding. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ's turn to dismount and my turn to dismount came. He caught up with me from behind and tapped my shoulder, saying, "Say: 'I seek refuge in the Lord of the daybreak.'" So I said, "Say: 'I seek refuge in the Lord of the daybreak.'" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ recited it and I recited it with him. Then he said, "Say: 'I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind.'" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ recited it and I recited it with him. Then he said, "When you pray, recite these two; for you will never recite anything like them."
