أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِن شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ

Transliteration

Aʿūdhu bi-kalimāti-llāhi t-tāmmāti min sharri mā khalaq

English meaning

I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah from the evil of what He has created.

When to recite

Seek refuge in Allah’s perfect words against every form of harm before you sleep, before you travel, and before any moment that frightens you. This dua is reported widely and the Prophet ﷺ used it himself for protection. Recite it over your bump, over your other children if you have them, and over the home in which your baby will grow.
