Mankind

ٱلنَّاس

The final surah of the Qurʾān, paired with Al-Falaq as the muʿawwidhāt — verses sought as protection. Asks Allah for refuge from the whisperer who slips into the chests of mankind.

Say, "I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind,

the King of mankind,

the God of mankind,

from the evil of the retreating whisperer,

who whispers into the chests of mankind —

whether jinn or mankind."
