أَخْبَرَنِي مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ جَابِرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ بَيْنَا أَقُودُ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي نَقَبٍ مِنْ تِلْكَ النِّقَابِ،‏‏‏‏ إِذْ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَلَا تَرْكَبُ يَا عُقْبَةُ ؟ ،‏‏‏‏ فَأَجْلَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ أَرْكَبْ مَرْكَبَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَلَا تَرْكَبُ يَا عُقْبَةُ ؟ ،‏‏‏‏ فَأَشْفَقْتُ أَنْ يَكُونَ مَعْصِيَةً، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَنَزَلَ وَرَكِبْتُ هُنَيْهَةً،‏‏‏‏ وَنَزَلْتُ وَرَكِبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَلَا أُعَلِّمُكَ سُورَتَيْنِ مِنْ خَيْرِ سُورَتَيْنِ قَرَأَ بِهِمَا النَّاسُ فَأَقْرَأَنِي قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ،‏‏‏‏ وَ قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ النَّاسِ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَتَقَدَّمَ فَقَرَأَ بِهِمَا ثُمَّ مَرَّ بِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كَيْفَ رَأَيْتَ يَا عُقْبَةَ بْنَ عَامِرٍ ؟ اقْرَأْ بِهِمَا كُلَّمَا نِمْتَ وَقُمْتَ .

It was narrated that 'Uqbah bin 'Amir said: While I was leading the Messenger of Allah [SAW] (on his mount) in one of these mountain passes, he said: 'Why don't you ride, O 'Uqbah?' I had too much respect for the Messenger of Allah [SAW] to ride the mount of the Messenger of Allah [SAW]. Then he said: 'Why don't you ride, O 'Uqbah?' I was worried that I might be disobeying him, so he got off, and I rode for a little while, then I got off and the Messenger of Allah [SAW] rode. Then he said: 'Shall I not teach you two of the best Surahs that the people recite?' And he taught me: 'Say: I seek refuge with (Allah) the Lord of the daybreak,' and 'Say: I seek refuge with (Allah) the Lord of mankind. Then the Iqamah was said and he went forward and recited them. Then he passed by me and said: 'What do you think, O 'Uqbah bin 'Amir? Recite them every time you go to sleep and get up.'
