Poster – An-Nas

Drawing that features flowers and foliages inspired by the powerful three Quls — Surah an-Nas, Surah al-Falaq, and Surah al-Ikhlas.

These frames are not only beautiful, they are also great to teach your kids these powerful duas for protection (not only for the house; but ourselves as well) — ultimately teaching our kids about the power of dua from a young age will help them learn to rely more on Allah than humans. Not only would we increase their love for Allah, but it is also a way to teach them resilience that when mommy and daddy are not here Allah is always there for them.

May Allah always make us people of dua and tawakkul.

أمين يا رب العالمين

The Holy Quran serves as the most authentic source of all Islamic knowledge. It is the preservation of the words and commands of Allah SWT and provides us complete guidance in all matters.

Allah SWT teaches us in the Quran how to make dua for protection from enemy, evil, and all kinds of harm. We ask Allah SWT for protection because there is none better than him to offer his refuge, and no better guarantee of safety than in the promise and words of Allah SWT.

In addition to Ayatul Kursi, the Surah an-Nas, Surah al-Falaq and Surah al-Ikhlas also known as the three Quls — recited in combination serve as one of the most powerful dua for protection. There are a number of hadith about these three Surahs for protection.

1. The Prophet Muhammad SAW reportedly told us in a hadith about the power of the three Quls as well. Abdullah ibn Khubayb reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Speak.” I said, “What should I say?” The Prophet said, “Say: He is Allah, the One, (112:1) and the two chapters of refuge, al-Falaq and al-Nas, every evening and morning three times. They will be enough for you against everything.” (Sunan al-Tirmidhii, 3,575)

2. ⁠Aisha RA narrated: “Whenever the Prophet SAW went to bed every night, he used to cup his hands together and blow over it after reciting Surah al-Ikhlas, Surah al-Falaq and Surah an-Nas, and then rub his hands over whatever parts of his body he was able to rub, starting with his head, face and front of his body. He used to do that three times.” (Sahih al-Bukhari, 5,017)
