Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ النَّاسِ (1) مَلِكِ النَّاسِ (2) إِلَهِ النَّاسِ (3) مِنْ شَرِّ الْوَسْوَاسِ الْخَنَّاسِ (4) الَّذِي يُوَسْوِسُ فِي صُدُورِ النَّاسِ (5) مِنَ الْجِنَّةِ وَالنَّاسِ (6)
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Say, "I take refuge in the Lord of mankind, (1) The King of mankind, (2) The God of mankind, (3) From the evil of the retreating whisperer - (4) Who whispers [evil] into the breasts of mankind - (5) From among the jinn and mankind." (6)
An-Nas is the 114th and final chapter of the Quran, and its name translates to "Mankind." This chapter is a prayer seeking protection from Satan's whispers and an acknowledgement that only Allah can protect us from any harm that may come from the spiritual world. It is said to be the most commonly recited chapter of the Quran in daily prayer and is particularly recited during times of fear or distress.
Shaykh Maher Al-Muaiqly's recitation of An-Nas is known for its emotive quality, and his voice has been described as "powerful, yet calming." The song is often played during Islamic events, including weddings and funerals, and has become a beloved and popular recitation among Muslims worldwide.
