It is narrated from the Mother of the Believers, Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), that every night, when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went to his bed, he would put his two palms together, then blow into them and recite into them 'Say: He is Allah, the One', 'Say: I seek refuge with the Lord of the daybreak' and 'Say: I seek refuge with the Lord of mankind'. Then he would wipe his two palms over as much of his body as he could, beginning with his head and face and the front part of his body. He (peace and blessings be upon him) would do this three times.
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith in this complete form from Imam al-Zuhri (may Allah have mercy on him) except Uqayl bin Khalid; Mufaddal bin Fadalah is alone in narrating it."
