Question
What is the meaning of ‘I take refuge in Allaah’s perfect Words from the evil that He has created’? What are Allaah’s perfect Words?
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. We ask Allaah to exalt his mention as well as that of his family and all his companions.
An-Nawawi 
when interpreting the narration reported by Muslim he interpreted the term “Allaah’s Words” to mean ‘the Quran’. He interpreted the word ‘perfect’ to mean ‘complete, which are free of any deficiency or imperfection’. Perfect was also interpreted to mean beneficial and a cure. Al-Mubaarak Poori said the same thing. However, Az-Zarqaani, and Al-Munaawi 
interpreted the term ‘Words’ to mean Allaah’s Names and Attributes, and Allaah’s revealed Books.
