بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

قُلۡ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ ٱلۡفَلَقِ 

Say, “I seek refuge with the Sustainer of the divergence [in nature],

مِن شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ 

“From the evil of what He created,

وَمِن شَرِّ غَاسِقٍ إِذَا وَقَبَ 

“And from the evil of atrocious darkness whenever it descends,

وَمِن شَرِّ ٱلنَّفَّٰثَٰتِ فِي ٱلۡعُقَدِ 

“And from the evil of those who breathe out wizardly spells,

وَمِن شَرِّ حَاسِدٍ إِذَا حَسَدَ 

“And from the evil of the envious when he envies.”
