The question

Is the mentioned supplication for protection, which reads: "I seek protection with Allah, there is no god but He, my God and the God of all things; and I cling to my Lord and the Lord of all things; and I rely on the Ever-Living Who does not die; and I ward off evil, for there is no power and no strength except with Allah. Allah is sufficient for us, and [He is] the best Disposer of affairs. Allah is sufficient for me, He who is sufficient for us. Sufficient for me is the Lord from [all] servants. Sufficient for me is the Creator from [all] creation. Sufficient for me is the Sustainer from [all] the sustained. Sufficient for me is He who is sufficient for me. Sufficient for me is He in whose hand is the dominion of all things, and He protects, and none can be protected against Him. Allah is sufficient for me, and enough. Allah heard whoever called. There is no aim beyond Allah. Allah is sufficient for me, there is no god but He. Upon Him I have relied, and He is the Lord of the Great Throne," authentic?

The answer

The aforementioned supplication has not been authentically reported from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and Al-Albani graded it as weak. What has been authentically reported in sound hadiths, which protect the Muslim, suffices in its place, such as reciting the last two verses of Surat Al-Baqarah every night, and the supplication for distress: "There is no god but Allah, the Most Great, the Most Forbearing...", and reciting Surat Al-, Al-Falaq, and An-Nas before sleeping.
