Abaan ibn Uthman narrated from his father that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "No servant says every morning and every night: 'In the Name of Allah, with Whose Name nothing on earth or in the heavens can cause harm, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing' three times, except that nothing will harm him." Abaan was afflicted with paralysis, and when a man looked at him, Abaan said to him: "The hadith is as I told you, but I did not say it on that day so that Allah might execute His decree upon me." The time for morning remembrances is from dawn until midday (zawal), and for evening remembrances from midday (zawal) until midnight. Whoever recites them will be protected, by Allah's permission, and whoever does not recite them will not be included in this protection and remains subject to Allah's will.
