Ibn Abi Hatim (from Jabir) and Al-`Awfi (from Abbas) recorded: Jabir and Ibn Abbas said:
"Al-Falaq is the morning.''
The same has been reported from Mujahid, Sa`id bin Jubayr, Abdullah bin Muhammad bin Aqil, AlHasan, Qatadah, Muhammad bin Ka`b Al-Qurazi and Ibn Zayd. 
Malik also reported a similar statement from Zayd bin Aslam.
Al-Qurazi, Ibn Zayd and Ibn Jarir all said,
"This is like Allah's saying He is the Cleaver of the daybreak.'' {Surah Al-Anam; Ayat:96}
Allah said,
From the evil of what He has created
This means from the evil of all created things.
Thabit Al-Bunani and Al-Hasan Al-Basri both said,
"Hell, Iblis and his progeny, from among that which He (Allah) created.'' 
Allah said,
And from the evil of the Ghasiq when Waqab
Mujahid said, 
"Ghasiq is the night, and when it Waqab' refers to the setting of the sun.''
Al-Bukhari mentioned this from him.
Ibn Abi Najih also reported a similar narration from him (Mujahid).
The same was said by Ibn Abbas, Muhammad bin Ka`b
The same was said by, Al-Qurazi, Ad-Dahhak, Khusayf, Al-Hasan and Qatadah
Al-Qurazi, Ad-Dahhak, Khusayf, Al-Hasan and Qatadah - they said,
"Verily, it is the night when it advances with its darkness.'' 
Az-Zuhri said, "This means the sun when it sets.''
Abu Al-Muhazzim reported: Abu Hurayrah said, "This means the star.'' 
Ibn Zayd said, "The Arabs used to say, `Al-Ghasiq is the declination (of the position) of the heavenly body known as Pleiades. The number of those who were ill and stricken with plague would increase whenever it would decline, and their number would lessen whenever it rose.'''
Ibn Jarir said, "Others have said that it is the moon.''
The support for the people who hold this position (that it means the moon) from the below narration:
Imam Ahmad recorded: Al-Harith bin Abi Salamah mentioned that A'ishah said,
"The Messenger of Allah took me by my hand and showed me the moon when it rose, and he said, Seek refuge with Allah from the evil of this Ghasiq when it becomes dark''
At-Tirmidhi and An-Nasa'i both recorded this Hadith in their Books of Tafsir in their Sunans.
Allah said,
And from the evil of the blowers in knots
Mujahid, Ikrimah, Al-Hasan, Qatadah and Ad-Dahhak all said,
"This means the witches.''
Mujahid said, "When they perform their spells and blow into the knots.''
In another Hadith, it has been reported that Jibril came to the Prophet and said,
"Are you suffering from any ailment, O Muhammad''
The Prophet replied, Yes.
So Jibril said, "In the Name of Allah, I recite prayer (Ruqyah) over you, from every illness that harms you, from the evil of every envious person and evil eye. May Allah cure you.''
