An-nasSurat an-Nas (Mankind) is the 114th and last sura of the Qur'an. It is a brief 6-verse invocation, asking God for protection from Satan. It is a Makkan sura. It and Surat al-Falaq are together termed the mu'awwidhatayn; dealing with roughly the same theme, they form a natural pair. There is a sunna tradition of reading it over the sick or before sleeping. Its text, in Pickthall's translation, is as follows: In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful. - Say: I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind,
- The King of mankind,
- The God of mankind,
- From the evil of the sneaking whisperer,
- Who whispereth in the hearts of mankind,
- Of the jinn and of mankind.
