Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. It is mentioned in the hadith of 'Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
When he went to his bed, he would cup his hands together and then blow into themكان اذا اوى الى فراشه جمع كفيه ثم نفث نفث فيهما
Sahih Ibn Hibban 46:24
then recites these surahs. His question is: Do we act according to the apparent meaning of this hadith, so that the blowing is before the recitation, or does the recitation come before the blowing?

Answer:
He recites, then he blows; he recites, then he blows after he has recited. Yes.
