Seeking Refuge in Allah and the Verse of the Kursī
أَعُوْذُ بِاللّٰهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيْمِ. اَللّٰهُ لَآ إِلٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الْحَىُّ الْقَيُّوْمُ ، لَا تَأْخُذُهُۥ سِنَةٌ وَّلَا نَوْمٌ ، لَهُۥ مَا فِى السَّمٰـوٰتِ وَمَا فِى الْأَرْضِ ، مَنْ ذَا الَّذِىْ يَشْفَعُ عِنْدَهُۥ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِۦ ، يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيْهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ ، وَلَا يُحِيْطُوْنَ بِشَىْءٍ مِّنْ عِلْمِهِٓ إِلَّا بِمَا شَآءَ ، وَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ السَّمٰـوٰتِ وَالْأَرْضَ، وَلَا يَئُوْدُهُۥ حِفْظُهُمَا ، وَهُوَ الْعَلِىُّ الْعَظِيْمُ.
I seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the accursed. Allah: there is no god but Him, the Ever-Living, the Self-Sustaining. Neither drowsiness nor sleep overtakes Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is there that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is before them and what is behind them, and they encompass nothing of His knowledge except what He wills. His Kursī extends over the heavens and the earth, and guarding them does not burden Him. And He is the Most High, the Magnificent.
Aʿūdhu bi-llāhi mina-sh-shayṭāni-r-rajīm. Allāhu lā ilāha illā huwa-l-ḥayyu-l-qayyūm, lā taʾkhudhuhu sinatun wa lā nawm, lahu mā fi-s-samāwāti wa mā fi-l-arḍ, man dhā-lladhī yashfaʿu ʿindahu illā bi-idhnihi, yaʿlamu mā bayna aydīhim wa mā khalfahum, wa lā yuḥīṭūna bi-shayʾin min ʿilmihi illā bi-mā shāʾ, wasiʿa kursiyyuhu-s-samāwāti wa-l-arḍ, wa lā yaʾūduhu ḥifẓuhumā, wa huwa-l-ʿaliyyu-l-ʿaẓīm.
