Hadith

Verses were revealed to me, the like of which has never been seen; Al-Mu‘awwidhatayn

عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ رَضيَ اللهُ عنهُ قَالَ: قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أُنْزِلَ -أَوْ أُنْزِلَتْ- عَلَيَّ آيَاتٌ لَمْ يُرَ مِثْلُهُنَّ قَطُّ، الْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ».

‘Uqbah ibn ‘Āmir (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: "Verses were revealed to me, the like of which has never been seen; Al-Mu‘awwidhatayn."
