Uqba bin Amir reported,

Uqba said, "I was walking with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when he said, 'Uqba, recite.'I asked, 'What should I recite, Messenger of Allah?'He said nothing to me. Then he said again, 'Uqba, recite.'I asked, 'What should I recite, Messenger of Allah?'Again he said nothing to me, so I prayed, 'Allah, bring him back to me.'Then he said, 'Uqba, recite.'I asked, 'What should I recite, Messenger of Allah?'He said, 'Say, I seek refuge with the Lord of the daybreak' [Falaq 113:1].So I recited it through to the end.Then he said, 'Recite.'I asked, 'What should I recite, Messenger of Allah?'He said, 'Say, I seek refuge with the Lord of mankind' [Nas 114:1].So I recited it through to the end.At that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'No one has ever asked with anything like these two, and no one has ever sought refuge with anything like these two.'"

Hasan

عن عقبة بن عامر قال

كنت أمشي مع رسول الله ﷺ فقال: يا عقبة، قل فقلت: ماذا أقول يا رسول الله؟ فسكت عني، ثم قال: يا عقبة، قل قلت: ماذا أقول يا رسول الله؟ فسكت عني، فقلت: اللهم اردده علي، فقال: يا عقبة، قل قلت: ماذا أقول يا رسول الله؟ فقال: {قل أعوذ برب الفلق}، فقرأتها حتى أتيت على آخرها، ثم قال: قل قلت: ماذا أقول يا رسول الله؟ قال: {قل أعوذ برب الناس} فقرأتها حتى أتيت على آخرها، ثم قال رسول الله ﷺ عند ذلك: ما سأل سائل بمثلهما، ولا استعاذ مستعيذ بمثلهما.
