قَالَ يَعْقُوبُ وَقَالَ الْقَعْقَاعُ بْنُ حَکِيمٍ عَنْ ذَکْوَانَ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ جَائَ رَجُلٌ إِلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا لَقِيتُ مِنْ عَقْرَبٍ لَدَغَتْنِي الْبَارِحَةَ قَالَ أَمَا لَوْ قُلْتَ حِينَ أَمْسَيْتَ أَعُوذُ بِکَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ لَمْ تَضُرَّکَ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 6880
Abu Huraira reported that a person came to Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and said: Allah's Messenger, I was stung by a scorpion during the night. Thereupon he said: Had you recited these words in the evening: I seek refuge in the Perfect Word of Allah from the evil of what He created, it would not have done any harm to you.
