114. Surah An-Naas (Mankind)

Sura An-Nās (Arabic: سورة الناس‎, Sūrat An-Nās, "Mankind") is the 114th and last sura, or chapter, of the Qur'an. It is a short six-verse invocation, asking Allah for protection from the Shaitan. There is a Sunnah tradition of reading this Sura over the sick or before sleeping.

The surah opens with the mention of God as the Lord of mankind and teaches one to seek refuge in Him from the whisperings of Satan and those of evil jinn and people. This is another surah commonly used as an invocation against evil paired with surah Falaq.

                   
                                             

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

1. Say: I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind, 

2. The King of mankind, 

3. The God of mankind, 

4. From the evil of the sneaking whisperer, 

5. Who whispereth in the hearts of mankind, 

6. Of the jinn and of mankind.
