These are the last two verses of Surah al-Baqarah. Great merits have been attributed to these two verses in authentic Ahadith. The Holy Prophet ﷺ has said that one who recites these two verses during the night, they will be sufficient for him.
As narrated by Sayyidna Ibn Abbas Razi Allah Anhu, the Holy Prophet ﷺ said that Allah Ta'alah has sent forth these two verses out of the treasures of Paradise and the 'Rahman' has already written them by His own hand two thousand years earlier than the creation of all things and beings. If a person reads them after the Salah of Isha they will be a substitute for Tahajjud for him.
As it appears in the Mustadrak of al-Hakim and Bayhaqi, the Holy Prophet ﷺ said that Allah Ta'alah has concluded Surah al-Baqarah with these two verses, which have been given to me in His grace from out of the special treasure that lies under the 'Arsh' (Divine Throne). Therefore, you should make special effort to learn these verses, and at the same time, teach your women and children how to recite them.
