Hadith 5528
عَنْ شَدَّادِ بْنِ أَوْسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ يَأْوِي إِلَى فِرَاشِهِ فَيَقْرَأُ سُورَةً مِنْ كِتَابِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ إِلَّا بَعَثَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ إِلَيْهِ مَلَكًا يَحْفَظُهُ مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ يُؤْذِيهِ حَتَّى يَهُبَّ مَتَى هَبَّ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Shaddad bin Aws (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever comes to his bed and recites a surah from the Book of Allah, Allah Almighty sends an angel towards him, who protects him from everything that may harm him, until he wakes up, whenever he wakes up.
Hadith 5529
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا أَتَى إِلَى فِرَاشِهِ فِي كُلِّ لَيْلَةٍ جَمَعَ كَفَّيْهِ ثُمَّ نَفَثَ فِيهِمَا وَقَرَأَ فِيهِمَا قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ وَقُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ وَقُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ النَّاسِ ثُمَّ مَسَحَ بِهِمَا مَا اسْتَطَاعَ مِنْ جَسَدِهِ يَبْدَأُ بِهِمَا عَلَى رَأْسِهِ وَوَجْهِهِ مَا أَقْبَلَ مِنْ جَسَدِهِ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ
It is narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) would come to his bed, he would gather his palms together and blow into them in such a way that a little saliva would also be present, and he would recite these Surahs in them: Surah Ikhlas, Surah Falaq, and Surah Nas. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) would wipe both hands over his body as far as possible, starting from his head and face, then wiping over the front part of his body. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) would repeat this action three times and would do this every night.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna ‘Irbaad bin Saariyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to recite the Surahs of Tasbeeh before sleeping and would say: In these Surahs there is a verse which is superior to a thousand verses.
