حَدَّثَنَا
أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا
زُهَيْرٌ، عَنْ
أَبِي إِسْحَاق، عَنْ
فَرْوَةَ بْنِ نَوْفَلٍ، عَنْ
أَبِيهِ: أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: "مَجِيءٌ مَا جَاءَ بِكَ"، قَالَ: جِئْتُ لِتُعَلِّمَنِي شَيْئًا أَقُولُهُ عِنْدَ مَنَامِي، قَالَ:
"فَإِذَا أَخَذْتَ مَضْجَعَكَ، فَاقْرَأْ: قُلْ يَا أَيُّهَا الْكَافِرُونَ، ثُمَّ نَمْ عَلَى خَاتِمَتِهَا، فَإِنَّهَا بَرَاءَةٌ مِنْ الشِّرْكِ".
Furwah bin Nawfal narrated from his father (Sayyiduna Nawfal رضي الله عنه) that the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said to him: "What has brought you (to me)?" He replied: "I have come so that you may teach me something which I can recite when I go to sleep." The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said: "When you lie down on your bed, recite «﴿قُلْ يَا أَيُّهَا الْكَافِرُونَ﴾» and at its end go to sleep, for this surah is a declaration of innocence from shirk (association with Allah)." (i.e., it absolves one from shirk.)
