Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 2481 — Seeking refuge: how it is done, before

Ayyub said: Muhammad used to recite the ta'awwudh before Surah al-Fatihah and after Surah al-Fatihah. In his ta'awwudh he used to say: "I seek refuge in Allah, the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing, from the whisperings of the devils, and I seek refuge in Allah lest they come near me."
