Seen, Originator of the heavens and the earth, Lord of everything and its Possessor, I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except You, I seek refuge in You from the evil of my soul and from the evil of Shaitān and his Shirk (Allāhumma ‘Ālimal-Ghaibi Wash-Shahādati Fāṭiras-Samāwāti Wal-Ard, Rabba Kulli Shaī‘in Wa Malikahu, Ashhadu An Lā Ilāha Illā Anta, A’ūdhu Bika Min Sharri Nafsi Wa Min Sharrish-Shaitāni Washirkihi).” He said: ‘Say it when you reach morning, and evening, and when you go to bed.’ (Ṣaḥīḥ)
