The last two verses of al-Baqarah at night
The Messenger believes in what has been sent down to him from his Lord, and so do the believers. Each believes in Allah, His angels, His books and His messengers: "We make no distinction between any of His messengers." And they say, "We hear and we obey. Grant us Your forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the final return." Allah does not burden a soul beyond what it can bear. It gains whatever good it has done and suffers whatever evil it has done. "Our Lord, do not take us to task if we forget or make a mistake. Our Lord, do not place on us a burden like the one You placed on those before us. Our Lord, do not burden us with what we cannot bear. Pardon us, forgive us and have mercy on us. You are our Protector, so help us against the disbelieving people."
The Prophet ﷺ said these two verses, recited at night, will suffice the one who recites them. Follow any timing or count stated in the cited narration; otherwise it may be used as a general personal du'a.
The Arabic and meaning are paired with Quran 2:285-286, Sahih al-Bukhari 5009, Sahih Muslim 807. No special promise or count is added without a cited basis.
