Surahs read by the Prophet before going to sleep

It is mentioned in various Hadiths (sayings and actions of Prophet Muhammad) that he used to recite certain Surahs (chapters from the Quran) before going to sleep. These include:

Surah Al-Fatihah (Chapter 1): Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) often recited Surah Al-Fatihah in his nightly prayers before going to sleep.

Surah Al-Ikhlas (Chapter 112): Surah Al-Ikhlas is a concise chapter that emphasizes the oneness of Allah. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) would recite this Surah in his nightly prayers.

Surah Al-Falaq (Chapter 113): Surah Al-Falaq seeks protection from various harms and is commonly recited by the Prophet before sleeping.

Surah An-Nas (Chapter 114): Similar to Surah Al-Falaq, Surah An-Nas is recited for seeking protection, especially from the evil of others.

While these Surahs were among those frequently recited by Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) before sleeping, it is also important to note that he recited various other verses and prayers, seeking Allah’s protection and blessings. Muslims may choose to recite these Surahs as part of their nightly routine, following the Sunnah (traditions) of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
