Colorful Surah Falaq with English Translation

Al-Falaq "Dawn" adalah surah Al-Quran ke-113 dengan terjemahan Inggeris Uthmani

al-Falaq (Arabic: الفلق‎, "Dawn, Daybreak") is the 113th chapter (surah) of the Qur'an (Quran / Quraan). This surah is positioned in Para 30 which is also known as Juz Amma (Juz' 30). It is a brief five verse invocation, asking God (Allah) for protection from the evil of Shaitan. This surah and the 114th (and last) surah in the Qur'an, an-Nas, are collectively referred to as al-Mu'awwidhatayn "the Refuges", as both begin with "I seek refuge", an-Nas tells to seek God for refuge from the evil from within, while al-Falaq tells to seek God for refuge from the evil from outside, so reading both of them would protect a person from his own mischief and the mischief of others.

Hadith / Hadees:

The first and foremost exegesis / tafsir of the Qur'an (AlQuran / AlQur'an) is found in hadis of Muhammad. Although scholars including ibn Taymiyyah claim that Muhammad has commented on the whole of the Qur'an (Al-Quran / Al-Qur'an), others including Ghazali cite the limited amount of narratives, thus indicating that he has commented only on a portion of the Qur'an (Mushaf / Koran). Ḥadis (حديث) is literally "speech" or "report", that is a recorded saying or tradition of Muhammad validated by isnad; with Sirah Rasul Allah these comprise the sunnah and reveal shariah. According to Hazrat Aishah, the life of Prophet Muhammad was practical implementation of Qur'an (Kuran / Qura'an). Therefore, higher count of hadith elevates the importance of the pertinent surah from a certain perspective. This sorah was held in special esteem in hadith, which can be observed by these related narratives. According to hadith, the prophet Muhammad used to recite this sorat before sleeping every night.

Abu 'Abdullah narrated that Ibn 'Abis Al-Juhani told him that: The Messenger of Allah [SAW] said to him: "O Ibn 'Abis, shall I not tell you of the best thing with which those who seek refuge with Allah may do so?" He said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said: "Say: I seek refuge with (Allah) the Lord of the daybreak."(Al-Falaq), "Say: I seek refuge with (Allah) the Lord of mankind."(Al-Nas) - these two Surahs."

Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) reported: Whenever the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) went to bed, he would blow upon his hands recite Al-Mu'awwidhat; and pass his hands over his body (Sahih Al-Bukhari and Muslim).

Aishah said : Every night when he prophet (May peace be upon him) went to his bed, he joined his hands and breathed into them, reciting into them:”say: he is Allah, One”(Al-Ikhlas) and say ; I seek refuge in the Lord of the dawn(Al-Falaq) and Say: I seek refuge in the Lord of men(Al-Nas). Then he would wipe as much of his body as he could with his hands, beginning with his head, his face and the front of his body, doing that three times.

Uqba ibn Amir reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Do you not know that last night certain Ayat were revealed the like of which there is no precedence. They are: 'Say: I seek refuge with (Allah) the Rubb of the daybreak' (Al-Falaq), and 'Say: I seek refuge with (Allah) the Rubb of mankind' (Surah 114).

This Surah was revealed in Madinah and it has 5 verses. It is narrated from the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) that whoever recites Surah Al-Falaq in the month of Ramadan in any of his prayers (salah / salat / namaz), it is as if he has fasted in Makkah and he will get the reward for performing Hajj and ‘Umra. Imam Muhammad al-Baqir (a.s.) said that in the prayer of Shafa’a (in Salaatul-layl) one should recite Surah al-Falaq in the first rak’aat and an-Naas in the second.

Reciting of this Surah in compulsory prayers (solat / salaah / salaat) keeps a person safe from poverty and Sustenance comes towards him. His death will not be of a sudden and terrifying nature.
