Q: I want to query regarding a wazifa which I heard lately from an Aalim. However I cannot remember the words of the wazifa which the Aalim had told me. I can't remember whether her said أَعُوذُ باللهِ السَّمِيعِ العَلِيمِ مِنَ الشَّيطَانِ الرَّجِيم or أَعُوذُ باللهِ السَّمِيعِ الحَدِيمِ مِنَ الشَّيطَانِ الرَّجِيم. He said that after reciting this wazifa thrice, the last three verses of Surah Hashr should also be recited.
A: This dua is among the masnoon duas to be recited in the morning and evening. Hadhrat Ma’qal bin Yasaar (Radhiallahu Anhu) reports that Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said: “The one who recites the following dua thrice in the morning and thereafter recites the last three verses of Surah Hashr, Allah Ta’ala appoints seventy thousand angels to make dua for him (i.e. seek forgiveness on his behalf and ask Allah Ta’ala to bless him with taufeeq to do righteous actions) until the evening, and if he passes away on that day he passes away as a martyr. And whoever recites it in the evening, will receive the same position.
أَعُوذُ باللهِ السَّمِيعِ العَلِيمِ مِنَ الشَّيطَانِ الرَّجِيم
هُوَ اللَّـهُ الَّذى لا إِلـٰهَ إِلّا هُوَ عـٰلِمُ الغَيبِ وَالشَّهـٰدَةِ هُوَ الرَّحمـٰنُ الرَّحيمُ ﴿٢٢﴾ هُوَ اللَّـهُ الَّذى لا إِلـٰهَ إِلّا هُوَ المَلِكُ القُدّوسُ السَّلـٰمُ المُؤمِنُ المُهَيمِنُ العَزيزُ الجَبّارُ المُتَكَبِّرُ سُبحـٰنَ اللَّـهِ عَمّا يُشرِكونَ ﴿٢٣﴾ هُوَ اللَّـهُ الخـٰلِقُ البارِئُ المُصَوِّرُ لَهُ الأَسماءُ الحُسنىٰ يُسَبِّحُ لَهُ ما فِى السَّمـٰوٰتِ وَالأَرضِ وَهُوَ العَزيزُ الحَكيمُ ﴿٢٤﴾
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
عن معقل بن يسار رضي الله عنه عن النبي صلى الله عليه و سلم قال من قال حين يصبح ثلاث مرات أعوذ بالله السميع العليم من الشيطان الرجيم وقرأ ثلاث آيات من آخر سورة الحشر وكل الله به سبعين ألف ملك يصلون عليه حتى يمسي وإن مات في ذلك اليوم مات شهيدا ومن قالها حين يمسي كان بتلك المنزلة (الترمذي رقم 2922)

Q: Please can you send me the English meaning of the wazifa.
A:
أَعُوذُ باللهِ السَّمِيعِ العَلِيمِ مِنَ الشَّيطَانِ الرَّجِيم
I seek the protection of Allah Ta’ala, the All Hearing, the All-Knowing, from the accursed Shaytaan.
هُوَ اللَّـهُ الَّذى لا إِلـٰهَ إِلّا هُوَ عـٰلِمُ الغَيبِ وَالشَّهـٰدَةِ هُوَ الرَّحمـٰنُ الرَّحيمُ ﴿٢٢﴾ هُوَ اللَّـهُ الَّذى لا إِلـٰهَ إِلّا هُوَ المَلِكُ القُدّوسُ السَّلـٰمُ المُؤمِنُ المُهَيمِنُ العَزيزُ الجَبّارُ المُتَكَبِّرُ سُبحـٰنَ اللَّـهِ عَمّا يُشرِكونَ ﴿٢٣﴾ هُوَ اللَّـهُ الخـٰلِقُ البارِئُ المُصَوِّرُ لَهُ الأَسماءُ الحُسنىٰ يُسَبِّحُ لَهُ ما فِى السَّمـٰوٰتِ وَالأَرضِ وَهُوَ العَزيزُ الحَكيمُ ﴿٢٤﴾
He is Allah, besides whom there is no deity, the Knower of the unseen and the seen, He is the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. He is Allah, besides whom there is no deity, the Sovereign, the Pure, the giver of Peace, the Bestower of Faith, the Guardian, the Exalted in Might, the Compeller, the Supreme. Glory to Allah! (High is He) above the partners they attribute to Him. He is Allah, the Creator, the Inventor, the Fashioner; to Him belong the most beautiful names. Whatever is in the heavens and earth declare His Purity (and Glory). And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
