بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ ٱلنَّاسِ

Say: I seek refuge in the Lord of men,

مَلِكِ ٱلنَّاسِ

The King of men,

إِلَٰهِ ٱلنَّاسِ

The god of men,

مِن شَرِّ ٱلْوَسْوَاسِ ٱلْخَنَّاسِ

From the evil of the whisperings of the slinking (Shaitan),

ٱلَّذِى يُوَسْوِسُ فِى صُدُورِ ٱلنَّاسِ

Who whispers into the hearts of men,

مِنَ ٱلْجِنَّةِ وَٱلنَّاسِ

From among the jinn and the men.
