Summary
The hadith narrated by al-Bukhari states that whoever recites the last two verses of Surah al-Baqarah at night, the two verses suffice him. Ibn Hajar lists several meanings of sufficing, including sufficing as night prayer, as Quran recitation, and as protection from the evil of Satan, humans and jinn. He says all these meanings may be intended, and al-Nawawi likewise mentions sufficing for night prayer and protection from Satan, with the possibility of all meanings. The ruling concludes that many virtues are gained by those who recite, understand and practise them.
