قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ ٱلْفَلَقِ
Say, "I seek refuge in the Lord of daybreak
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ ٱلْفَلَقِ
Say, "I seek refuge in the Lord of daybreak
مِن شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ
From the evil of that which He created
وَمِن شَرِّ غَاسِقٍ إِذَا وَقَبَ
And from the evil of darkness when it settles
وَمِن شَرِّ ٱلنَّفَّـٰثَـٰتِ فِى ٱلْعُقَدِ
And from the evil of the blowers in knots
وَمِن شَرِّ حَاسِدٍ إِذَا حَسَدَ
And from the evil of an envier when he envies."
Al-Falaq is the first of the two surahs of refuge (al-Mu'awwidhatayn). It teaches the believer to seek protection with the Lord of the daybreak from the evil of what He created: the darkness when it settles, those who practice sorcery, and the envier when he envies.
Al-Falaq (الفلق) means "The Daybreak" in English. It is chapter 113 of the Holy Quran.
Surah Al-Falaq has 5 verses (ayat). It appears on pages 604 to 604 of the mushaf.
Surah Al-Falaq is a Makki surah, revealed in Makkah before the Prophet's ﷺ migration to Madinah.
Al-Falaq is the first of the two surahs of refuge (al-Mu'awwidhatayn). It teaches the believer to seek protection with the Lord of the daybreak from the evil of what He created: the darkness when it settles, those who practice sorcery, and the envier when he envies.
The Prophet ﷺ would recite Al-Falaq and An-Nas with Al-Ikhlas into his palms and wipe over his body before sleeping each night (Sahih al-Bukhari), and said no seeker of refuge has ever sought protection with anything like these two surahs (Abu Dawud).
