ANSWER:

You must do it both morning and evening.  The correct dua to recite while leaving the house is ‘Bismillahi tawakkaltu alallahi la hawla wala quwwata illa billah’

Before I leave my house I read the last three surahs of the Quran for protection. It is said that if you read in the morning your are protected until evening and if you read it in the evening you are protected until night. Sometimes I miss reading in the evening. My question: is it a must to read in the evening for protection until night or is it enough to read only in the morning?
