Is it a condition to recite Surat Al-Baqarah to expel devils for three days, or is it sufficient to listen to it via television or phone, and is it true that reciting it by day expels devils for three days and by night for three nights?

It is recommended to recite Surat Al-Baqarah in the home to expel Satan, as stated in the : "Indeed, Satan flees from the house in which Surat Al-Baqarah is recited." Reciting it directly is better than listening to a recording of it. Whoever recites it at night, Satan will not enter their home for three nights, and whoever recites it during the day, Satan will not enter their home for three days.
