What is recommended at bedtime and how to blow with the Mu'awwidhat

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He combines them, he combines the three once and then blows, or each surah?

Answer:
Each one on its own: he recites the three and wipes, then he recites the three and wipes, then he recites the three and wipes, each one on its own, three times, he repeats it three times.
Q: And if he recites each surah three times?
The Shaykh: But doing what the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did is better, reciting Qul Huwa Allahu Ahad and the two Mu'awwidhat and wiping, then repeating the recitation; this is the most complete, three times.
Q: Is it better to conclude with
Say, O you disbelievers..قل يا أيها الكافرون..
or: O my Lord, protect me from Your punishment?
The Shaykh: This is at bedtime, one concludes with the saying: O Allah, I have submitted my soul to You, this is the conclusion, O Allah, I have submitted my soul to You to the end of it, and the matter is broad in this, and praise be to Allah.
Q: The apparent meaning of the hadith now is that he recites the three surahs and then wipes..?
The Shaykh: The narrations from A'ishah are numerous and varied, but explicit that he does it three times, he combines the surahs and then repeats them, three times he wipes after reciting the three.
Q: And the Musabbihat?
The Shaykh: The Musabbihat are: Surat al-Hadid, Surat al-Jumu'ah, Surat al-Saff, and Surat al-Taghabun, these are the Musabbihat.
But the narrations that include recitation require attention to their chains of transmission.
Q: The second hadith
he should shake out his bed with the inside of his waist sheetينفض فراشه بداخلة إزاره
Sahih al-Bukhari 6320
..?
The Shaykh: This is better, from the perspective of precaution, Allah made this a means of protection, he shakes out the inside of his garment as a means of protection.
Q: Meaning it is recommended?
The Shaykh: It is recommended, without a doubt.
Q: And if he shakes it out with something other than the inside of his garment?
The Shaykh: That is sufficient, the objective is achieved, like a towel or anything else.
