حدثنا قتيبة بن سعيد قال: حدثنا المفضل بن فضالة، عن عقيل، اراه عن الزهري، عن عروة، عن عائشة، قالت: «كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم إذا اوى إلى فراشه كل ليلة جمع كفيه فنفث فيهما، وقرا فيهما قل هو الله احد وقل اعوذ برب الفلق وقل اعوذ برب الناس ثم مسح بهما ما استطاع من جسده، يبدا بهما راسه ووجهه وما اقبل من جسده يصنع ذلك ثلاث مرات»
It is narrated from Umm al-Mu'mineen Sayyidah Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her), she says that whenever the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) would lie down on his bed at night, he would bring his two palms together, blow into them, and then recite Surah Al-Ikhlas, Surah Al-Falaq, and Surah An-Nas into them. Then, as much as possible, he would wipe his hands over his body, beginning with his head, face, and the front part of his body. He (peace and blessings be upon him) would do this three times.
