There is no deity deserving of human worship except Allah, He is the

One and Only True God, without an associate. His is the Dominion

living and causes deaths. He is the ever living God. He never dies.
All goodness lies under His control and He is the Omnipotent God
Who can do all things.

‫كتاب الدعوات‬

The Book of Du'a (Supplications)

An-Nu'man bin Bashir (May Allah be pleased with them)
reported:
The Prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬said, "Du'a (supplication) is worship."[Abu
Dawud].

'Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬liked comprehensive supplications
or (Al-Jawami' - i.e., supplications with very few words but
comprehensive in meanings), and discarded others.[Abu Dawud].

Abul-Fadl Al-`Abbas bin `Abdul-Muttalib (ra) reported:

I asked the Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬to teach me a supplication.
He (‫ )ﷺ‬said, "Beg Allah for safety (from all evils in this world
and in the Hereafter)." I waited for some days and then I went to
him again and asked him: "O Messenger of Allah Teach me to
supplicate something from Allah." He said to me, "O Al-`Abbas,
the uncle of Messenger of Allah! Beseech Allah to give you safety
(Al-`afiyah ) in this life and in the Hereafter."[At- Tirmidhi].

Abud-Darda' (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

I heard the Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬saying, "Whenever a
Muslim supplicates for his (Muslim) brother in his absence, the
angels say: 'May the same be for you too'."[Muslim].
42
Abud-Darda' (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬said, "The supplication of a Muslim
for his (Muslim) brother in his absence will certainly be answered.
Everytime he makes a supplication for good for his brother, the
angel appointed for this particular task says: 'A meen! May it be
for you, too'."[Muslim].

Usamah bin Zaid (May Allah be pleased with them) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬said, "He who is favoured by
another and says to his benefactor: `Jazak-Allah khairan (may
Allah reward you well)' indeed praised (the benefactor)
satisfactorily.''[At-Tirmidhi].

Jabir (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬said, "Do not invoke curses on
yourself or on your children or on your possessions lest you
should happen to do it at a moment when the supplications are
accepted, and your prayer might be granted."[Muslim].

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬said, "A slave becomes nearest to
his Rabb when he is in prostration. So increase supplications in
prostrations."[Muslim].

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (‫)ﷺ‬, "The supplication of every one of
you will be granted if he does not get impatient and say (for
43
example): 'I supplicated my Rabb but my prayer has not been
granted'."[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

The narration of Muslim is: "The supplication of a slave continues

to be granted as long as he does not supplicate for a sinful thing or
for something that would cut off the ties of kinship and he does
not grow impatient." It was said: "O Messenger of Allah! What
does growing impatient mean?" He (‫ )ﷺ‬said, "It is one's saying:
'I supplicated again and again but I do not think that my prayer
will be answered.' Then he becomes frustrated (in such
circumstances) and gives up supplication altogether."

Abu Umamah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬was asked: "At what time does the
supplication find the greatest response?" He (‫ )ﷺ‬replied, "A
supplication made during the middle of the last part of the night
and after the conclusion of the obligatory prayers."[At-Tirmidhi]

'Ubadah bin As-Samit (May Allah be pleased with him) said:

The Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬said, "Whenever a Muslim
supplicates Allah, He accepts his supplication or averts any
similar kind of trouble from him until he prays for something
sinful or something that may break the ties of kinship." Upon this
someone of the Companions said: "Then we shall supplicate
plenty." The Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬said, "Allah is more
plentiful (in responding)."[At- Tirmidhi].

Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

The supplication most often recited by the Prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬was:

44
‫الَّلُه َّم آِتَنا ِف ي الُّدنَيا َح َس َنًة َو ِف ي اآلِخ َر ِة‬
‫َح َس َنًة َو ِقَنا َعَذاَب الَّناِر‬
"Allahumma atina fid-dunya hasanatan, wa fil-akhirati
hasanatan, wa qina 'adhab-annar"
(O our Rubb! give us in this world that which is good and in the
Hereafter that which is good, and save us from the punishment of
the Fire)."'[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

In the narration of Muslim it is added that whenever Anas

supplicated, he used to beseech Allah with this Du'a.

Shahr bin Haushab reported:

I asked Umm Salamah (May Allah be pleased with her), "O
Mother of the Believers! Which supplication did the Messenger of
Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬make frequently when he was in your house?" She
said: "He (‫ )ﷺ‬supplicated frequent
‫َيا ُم َق ِّلُب الُق ُلوِب َثِّبْت َق لِبي َعَلى ِديِنَك‬
"Ya muqallibal-qulubi, thabbit qalbi 'ala dinika"
(O Controller of the hearts make my heart steadfast in Your
religion) [At- Tirmidhi].

Abud-Darda' (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬said, "One of Prophet Dawud's
supplications was:
‫الَّلُه َّم إِّني َأْس َأُلَك ُحَّب ك َو ُحَّب َم ن ُيِح ُب َك‬
‫َو الَع َم ُل ال ـِّذي ُيَبِّلُغ ِني ُحَّب َك الَّلُه َّم اْجَع ْل‬
‫ُحَّب َك َأَحُّب ِإَلَّي ِم ن َنْف ِس ي َو َح اِلي َو ِم ن‬
‫الَم اِء الَباِر ِد‬

45
"Allahumma inni as'aluka hubbaka, wa hubba man yuhibbuka,
wal-'amalalladhi yuballighuni hubbaka. Allahumm-aj'al
hubbaka ahabba ilayya min nafsi, wa ahli, wa minal-ma'il-
baridi"
(O Allah! I ask You for Your Love, the love of those who love
You, and deeds which will cause me to attain Your Love. O
Allah! Make Your Love dearer to me than myself, my family and
the cold water). [At- Tirmidhi].

Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬said, "Recite frequently:
‫اَل‬
‫َيا َذا الَج ِل َو اِإلكَر اِم‬
"Ya Dhal-Jalali wal-Ikram! "
(O You, Possessor of glory and honour). [At- Tirmidhi].

Abu Umamah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬made many supplications which we
did not memorize. We said to him: "O Messenger of Allah! You
have made many supplications of which we do not remember
anything." He said, "Shall I tell you a comprehensive prayer? Say:

(O Allah, I beg to You the good which Your Prophet Muhammad
(‫ )ﷺ‬begged of You; and I seek refuge in You from the evil
where from Your Prophet Muhammad (‫ )ﷺ‬sought refuge. You
are the One from Whom help is sought and Your is the
responsibility to communicate (the truth). There is no power or
strength except with Allah the Exalted, the Great).[At- Tirmidhi]

Ibn Mas'ud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

One of the supplications of the Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬was:
‫الَّلُه َّم ِإِّني َأسَأُلَك ُم ِج يَباِت َر حَم ِتَك َو َداِئَم ُة‬
‫َم ْغ ِف َر ُتك َو الَّس اَل َم َة ِم ن ُك ِّل إثٍم َو الَغ ِنيَم ُة‬
‫ِم ن ُك ِل ِب ر ِو الَف وُز ِبالَج َّن ِة َو الَّنَج اَة ِم َن‬
‫الَّناِر‬
"Allahumma inni as'aluka mujibati rahmatika, wa 'aza'ima
maghfiratika, was-salamata min kulli ithmin, wal-ghanimata
min kulli birrin, wal-fawza bil- jannati, wannajata mina-nar "
(O Allah! I beg You for that which incites Your Mercy and the
means of Your forgiveness, safety from every sin, the benefit from
every good deed, success in attaining Jannah and deliverance from
Fire)."[Al-Hakim].

'Abdullah bin Mas'ud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

The Prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬used to supplicate:
‫َأ‬ ‫َأ‬
‫َدى َو الُّتَق ى‬ ‫اللهم ِإِّني ســـــــ ُلَك الُه‬
‫َو الَع َف اَف َو الِغَنى‬
47
"Allahumma inni as'alukal-huda, wat-tuqa, wal-'afafa, wal-
ghina"
(O Allah! I beseech You for guidance, piety, chastity and
contentment)."[Muslim].

Tariq bin Ashyam (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

Whenever a man entered the fold of Islam, the Prophet (‫)ﷺ‬
would show him how to perform Salat and then direct him to
supplicate:

‫الَّلُه َّم اغِف ْر ِلي َو اْر َح مِني َو اهِدِيِني‬

‫َو َعاِف يِني َو ارُز قِني‬
"Allahumm-aghfir li, warhamni, wa-hdini, wa 'afini, warzuqni"

(O Allah! Forgive me, have mercy on me, guide me, guard me

against harm and provide me with sustenance and
salvation)."'[Muslim].

In another narration Tariq said: A man came to the Prophet (‫)ﷺ‬

and said to him: "O Messenger of Allah! What shall I say if I want
to pray to my Rubb?" He (‫ )ﷺ‬said, "Say:

‫اِف يِني‬ ‫ْر ِلي َو اْر َح مِني َو َع‬ ‫الَّلُه َّم اْغِف‬
‫َو ارُز قِني‬
"Allahumma-ghfir li, warhamni, wa 'afini, warzuqni"

48
 (O Allah! Forgive me, have mercy on me, protect me and provide
me with sustenance).' Surely, this supplication is better for you in
this life and in the Hereafter).

'Abdullah bin 'Amr bin Al-'As (May Allah be pleased with them)
reported:
The Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬supplicated:
‫الَّلُه َّم ُم َص ِّر َف الُق ُلوِب َص ِّر ْف ُق ُلوِبَنا َعَلى‬
‫َطاَعِتَك‬
"Allahumma musarrifal-qulubi, sarrif qulubana 'ala ta'atika"
(O Allah! Controller of the hearts, direct our hearts to Your
obedience). [Muslim].
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬said, "Seek refuge in Allah against the
turmoils, attacks of misfortunes, and evil of judgement and joys of
the enemies."[Al-Bukhari and Muslim] .

And in a narration Sufyan said "I suspect I added one."

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬used to say:
‫َأ‬
‫الَّلُه َّم صِلْح ِلي ِديِني ال ـِّذي ُه َو ِع ْص َم ُت‬
‫َأمـــِر ي َو َأْص ِلْح ِلي ُدنَي اَي الـــِّذي ِف يَه ا‬

"Allahumm-aslih li diniyalladhi huwa 'ismatu amri, wa aslih li

49
waj'alil-hayata ziyadatan li fi kulli khair, waj'alil-mauta rahatan
li min kulli sharrin"
(O Allah, make my religion easy for me by virtue of which my
affairs are protected, set right for me my world where my life
exists, make good for me my Hereafter which is my resort to
which I have to return, and make my life prone to perform all
types of good, and make death a comfort for me from every evil).
[Muslim].

'Ali (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬said to me, "Recite:
‫الَّلُه م اهِديِني َو َس ِدْدِني‬
"Allahumma-hadini wa saddidni"
(O Allah! Direct me to the Right Path and make me adhere to the
Straight Path)."
Another narration is: "Allahumma inni as'aluk-alhuda was-
sadad "
(I beg You for guidance and uprightness). [Muslim].

Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬used to supplicate:
"Allahumma inni a'udhu bika minal-ajzi wal- kasali, wal-jubni
wal-harami, wal-bukhli, wa a'udhu bika min 'adhabil- qabri, wa
a'udhu bika min fitnatil-mahya wal-mamat "
[O Allah! I seek refuge in You from helplessness (to do good),
indolence, cowardice, senility, and miserliness; and I seek
Your Protection against the torment of the grave and the trials
of life and death]."
Another narration adds:
"wa dala'id-daini wa ghalabatir-rijal"

50
(And from the burden of indebtedness and the tyranny of
men)."[Muslim].

Abu Bakr As-Siddiq (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

I requested the Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬to teach me a
supplication which I could recite in my Salat (prayer). Thereupon
he said, "Recite:
"Allahumma inni zalamtu nafsi zulman kathiran, wa la
yaghfirudh- dhunuba illa Anta, faghfir li maghfiratan min
'indika, warhamni, innaka Antal-Ghafur-ur-Rahim"
(O Allah! I have considerably wronged myself. There is none to
forgive the sins but You. So grant me pardon and have mercy on
me. You are the Most Forgiving, the Most Compassionate)."'[Al-
Bukhari and Muslim].

Abu Musa (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

The Prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬used to supplicate:

(O Allah! Forgive my errors, ignorance and immoderation in my
affairs. You are better aware of my faults than myself. O Allah!
Forgive my faults which I committed in seriousness or in fun
deliberately or inadvertently. O Allah! Grant me pardon for those
sins which I committed in the past and I may commit in future,
which I committed in privacy or in public and all those sins of
which You are better aware than me. You Alone can send
whomever You will to Jannah, and You Alone can send
whomever You will to Hell-fire and You are Omnipotent)."[Al-
Bukhari and Muslim].

'Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) reported:

The Prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬used to supplicate (in these words):
"Allahumma inni audhu bika min sharri ma 'amiltu, wa min sharri
ma lam a'mal"
"O Allah! I seek refuge in You from the evil of that which I have
done and the evil of that which I have not done)."[Muslim].

tahawwuli 'afiyatika, wa fuja'ati niqmatika, wa jami'i
sakhatika (O Allah! I seek refuge in You against the declining of
Your Favours, passing of safety, the suddenness of Your
punishment and all that which displeases You)."[Muslim].

Zaid bin Arqam (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

Virtuesof Surahs (Chapters of the Qur’aan)

Virtues of Surah al Fatihah (1)
A man came to the Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam),
embraced Islam then returned to his people. On his way there
were a group of men who had with them a mad man in iron
manacles. The group said, that they heard that the travellers friend
(i.e. Prophet Muhammad) had something good with him and so he
exorcised the mad man with Surah al Fatiha, and he was cured. As
reward they gave the traveler 100 sheep. He then returned to the
Prophet and narrated the story. The Prophet asked if he did
anything other than recite al-Fatiha, he said no. So the Prophet
57
said that while these people make their livelihoods out of false
incantations (i.e.worshipping false idols) the traveler earned the
100 sheep through something lawful; so he could keep the sheep.
[Abu Dawud]
Abu Sa‟id Ar-Rafi‟ bin Al-Mu`alla (RA)) reported: The
Messenger of Allah (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said, “Shall I
teach you the greatest Surah in the Qur‟an before you leave the
mosque?”Then he (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam), took me by the
hand, and when we were about to step out, I reminded him of his
promise to teach me the greatest Surah in the Qur’an. He
(Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said, “It is `Alhamdu lillahi Rabbil
Alamin (i.e., SuratAl-Fatihah)which is As-Sab` Al-Mathani (i.e.,
the seven oft-repeated Ayat) and the Great Qur’an which is given
to me.”[Sahih Al-Bukhari]Abu Hurairah (RA) reported that when
Allah‟s Messenger (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) asked Ubayy ibn
Ka‟ab (RA), “Do you want me to teach you a Surah the like of
which has not been revealed in the Torah, the Injeel, the Zabur,
nor the Qur‟an?”, and also asked what he recited in his prayers.
He replied Umm-ul Qur’an (Surah Fatihah) the Prophet (Sallaho
AlaiheWassallam) proclaimed, "By Him in whose dominion my
soul is, nothing like it has been revealed in the Torah, the Gospel,
the Psalms, or the Quran and it is seven of the oft-repeated verses
in the Mighty Qur’an which I have been given‟[at-Tirmidhi, Al-
Hakim says that this hadith is Sahih on the conditions established
by Imam Muslim (Tafseer Mazhari 1:30)]
Abdullah Ibn „Abbas ( RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger
(Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said
“Rejoice in the two lights brought to you which have not been
brought to anyprophet before you”: al-Fatihah and the last verses
of Surah al-Baqarah (2: 2854), (said an angel to the
Prophet, blessings and peace be on him)[Muslim].
Ambari in his „Kitabur Rad‟ through his own chain of narrators
has mentioned from Mujahid

58
ibn Jabr (RA) that Iblees the accursed of Allah Ta‟ala lamented on
four occasions: first when he
was cursed; secondly when he was cast out of Heaven to the
Earth; thirdly when Muhammad
(Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) was given the Prophethood; fourthly
when Surah Fatihah was revealed and it was revealed in Madinah.
Once the Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) was traveling when
he disembarked and began walking alongside a companion. He
asked him, “Shouldn’t I tell you the best part of the Qur’an? then
he recited “Alhamdu lilahi rabil alameen” (Praise be to Allah,
Lord of the Worlds).[Hakim 1/560; Dhahabi]Abu Saeed al-
Khudr‟i
(RA) narrates that while on a journey we halted at a place. A girl
came to us and said: “The chief of this tribe has been stung by a
scorpion and our men are not present, is there anybody amongst
you who can recite something upon him to treat him?” Then, one
of our men went along with her although we did not think that he
knew any such treatment. However, our friend went to the chief
and recited something upon him and the chief was cured.
Thereupon, the chief gave him thirty sheep and gave us all milk to
drink. When he returned, weasked our friend: “Did you know
anything to recite upon him to cure him?” He said: “No, I only
recited Umm al-Kitab (i.e. Surah al-Fatihah) upon him.” We said
that do not do anything until we reach Madinah and ask the
Prophet regarding this (practice and reward-whether the sheep
were lawful or not for us). Upon reaching Madinah, we narrated
this to the Prophet(Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam), whereupon he
remarked: “How did he come to know that Al-Fatihah can be used
as a cure? (Rasulullah said this in astonishment) Distribute your
reward amongst yourselves and allot a share for me as well.
[Sahih al-Bukhari]
Ibn ‘Abbas said, “WhileJibril (alayhis salam) was sitting with the
Prophet, he heard a sound above him and raised his head. He said,
„This is a door of heaven which has been opened today and
59
which has never been opened before today. An angel descended
from it. He said, “This is an angel who has descended to earth who
has never descended before today.” He gave the greeting and said,
“Give the good news of two lights which you have been given and
which noProphet before you was given: the Fatiha of the Book
and the end of Surah al-Baqarah (2). You will not recite a letter of
them without being given it.” [Muslim, Riyad as-Salihin by Imam
an- Nawawi]
Abu Sulaiman says that once a group of Companions were in an
expedition (ghazwa) when
they happened to come across an epileptic person, who was
unconscious. One of the Companions recited Surah Al-Fatiha and
blew in his ear. The epileptic person immediatelycured. When
Sayyidana Muhammad (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) was informed
of this, he said:“It (Surah Al-Fatiha) is “The Mother of the
Qur’an” (Umm al-Qur‟an) and is a cure for everydisease.”[This
narration has been recorded by Ath-Thua’ibi from Abu Sulaiman,
who narratedit from Muawiya bin Saleh (radhi Allah anhu),
Tafseer Mazhari 1:31]
Sa’ib (radhi Allah anhu) bin Yazeed says that Rasulullah (Sallaho
Alaihe Wassallam) recitedSurah Al-Fatihah and blew it on me. To
safeguard me against calamities, Rasulullah (SallahoAlaihe
Wassallam) recited this Surah and put his blessed saliva in my
mouth.[At-Tabraani narrated this tradition in ‘Al-Awsat, Tafseer
Mazhari 1:31]
Anas (radhi Allah anhu) said: “When you recite Surah Al-Fatihah
and Surah Al-Ikhlas upon lying on your bed, you will be
safeguarded and should become fearless of everything except
death.”[Narrated by Baraa‟, Tafseer Mazhari 1:31]
The Prophet said, “Whoever mastered the first seven (chapters or
verses) from the Qur’an is a pontiff”.[Hakim 1/564; Dhahabi]
The Prophet said, “The mother of the Qur’an are the seven oft
repeated verses” [Bukhari 4704]

60
 It is narrated from Jabir (radhi Allah anhu) that Rasulullah
(Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said: “O Jabir, shall I inform you
about the best Surah revealed in the Qur’an?” Jabir said: “O
Messenger of Allah, please inform me.” Rasulullah (
Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said: “It is Fatiha tulKitab.” Jabir
adds: “And I think that Rasulullah (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam)
said that Al-Fatihais a cure for every disease.” Jabir is also
reported to have said: “Fatiha tul Kitab is a medicine for every
disease except death.”[Recorded by Al-Khal‟i in his Fawa‟id,
Tafseer Mazhari 1:30]
The Prophet said, “In the Fatiha of the Qur’an, there is a cure for
all maladies(illnesses)” [Darimi3236, also narrated by Ad-Darmi
in his Al-Masnad and Al-Bayhaqi in Shu‟bul Imaan,
TafseerMazhari 1:30]Surah Al-Fatihah is equivalent to two thirds
of the Qur’an. [Al-Bayhaqi and Al-Haakim,Tafseer Mazhari 1:31]
Surah Al Baqarah (2)
The Prophet said, “The Qur’an and those who committed
themselves to it will be presented on the Day of judgement,
preceded by Surah al-Baqarah and Surah al Imran‟.[Muslim 805]
The Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said, “Learn how to
recite Surah al-Baqarah for there is a blessing in it, and there is
sorrow for abandoning it, and it is unbearable for the idle and that
Al Baqarah and Al Imran are like two flowers which will shade
their learner on the day of Judgement, as if there were two large
clouds or two flocks of birds”.[Ahmad 21872 & Buraidaal-Aslami
Muslim 1/553]
The Prophet said, “Recite Surah Al Baqarah in your dwellings and
do not keep themas tombs.He also said that whoever recited Surah
Al Baqarah at night would be crowned with a crown of paradise.”
[Baihaqi in Al-Shuaib]
Abu Huraira reported that the Messenger of Allah (Sallaho Alaihe
Wassallam) said, “Do notturn your houses into graves. Shaitan is
barred from any house in which Surat Al-Baqarah (2) isrecited.”
[Muslim 780, 4: 1707]
61
The Prophet was asked, “Which part of the Qur’an is the best?”
He replied, “The Surah in which the cow is mentioned”. He was
then asked “Which part of that Surah?” He replied, “Theverse of
the Throne and the last pasrt of Surah al Baqarah came down from
under the Throne” [Darimi 3248]
The Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said, “Al Baqarah is the
top (or pinnacle) of the Qur’an. Eighty angels came down with
each one of it’s verses and extracted the verse of thethrone from
under the throne, and it was joined to the other verses” [Ahmad
5/26]
Abu Ummamah (RA) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace
and blessings be upon him)said, “Whoever recites Ayat Al-Kursi
immediately after each prescribed Prayer, there will benothing
standing between him and his entering Paradise except
death.”[an- Nasa‟i, Ibn Hibban,Darimi 3249/A]
Imam Ahmad (rahimullah) said: It was narrated that Asma‟ bint
Yazid ibn As-Sakan (RA) said,I heard the Messenger of Allah
(peace and blessings be upon him) say about these two
verses —“Allah! There is no god but He, the Ever -Living, the
One Who sustains and protects all that
exists…” [Al -Baraqah, 2: 255] and “Alif. Laam. Meem. Allah!
Nonehas the right to beworshiped but He, the Ever-Living, the
One Who sustains and protects all that exists” [‟Al„Imran, 3: 1 -2]
—that they contain the greatest name of Allah.[abu Dawud, at-
Tirmidhi, Tafsir of Imam Ibn Kathir]
Ubayy ibn Ka‟b reported that the Messenger of Allah (Sallaho
Alaihe Wassallam) said, “OAbu’l-Mundhir! Do you know which
ayat in the Book of Allah is greatest you have? I said, “Allah.
there is no god but Him, the Living, the Self-Sustaining.‟
(W2:253; H2:256) He struck me on the chest and said, “May
knowledge delight you, Abu’l-Mundhir!”[Muslim, Riyad as-
Salihin by Imam an-Nawawi]

62
Imam Ahmad narrated: Muhammad ibn Ja‟far told us, Uthman
ibn Itab told us, he said: I heard
Abu As-Sulayl saying, A man from among the Companions of the
Prophet (SallahoAlaiheWassallam) addressed the people until a
large number had gathered around him, then he climbed onto the
roof of a house and addressed the people, saying: The Messenger
of Allah(Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said, “Which verse of the
Qur’an is the greatest?” A man said, “Allah! There is no god but
He, the Ever-Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that
exists…‟ [Al-Baqarah, 2: 255].‟ He said: He put his hand between
my shoulders and I felt coolness in the center of my chest, [or he
said] he put his hand on the center of my chest and I felt coolness
between my shoulders, and he said, “Congratulations on your
knowledge, Abul-Mundhir.”
Another version of the same hadith. [Tafsir of Imam Ibn Kathir]It
was reported from the Messenger (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) that
“It is the greatest verse in the Book of Allah.” (referring to Ayat al
-Kursi). It was narrated from Ubayy ibn Ka‟b (RA) thatthe
Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) asked him which verse in the
Book of Allah was thegreatest.
He said, “Allah and His Messenger know best.” He repeated it
several times, then he said, “Ayat Al-Kursi.” The Prophet (peace
and blessings be upon him) said, “Congratulations upon your
knowledge, Abul-Mundhir. By the One in Whose hand is my soul,
it has a tongue and two lips, and it glorifies the Sovereign (i.e.,
Allah) at the foot of the Throne.” [Tafsir of Imam Ibn Kathir] Abu
Umamah (RA) reported that the messenger of Allah (Sallaho
Alaihe Wassallam) said, “The greatest name of Allah, which if He
is called by it, He responds, is in three surahs: Al-Baqarah, Al-
Imran and Ta-Ha.”
Hisham ibn Ammar, the khateeb of Damascus, said: “In Al-
Baqarah, it is “Allah! There is no god but He, the Ever-Living, the
One Who sustains and protects all that exist‟ [Al-Baqarah, 2:
255]. In Al-Imran it is “Alif. Laam. Meem. Allah! There is no god
63
but He, the Ever-Living, the One Who sustains and protects all
that exists‟ [‟Al-Imran, 3:1-2]. And in Ta-Ha it is “And (all) faces
shall be humbled before (Allah), the Ever -Living, the One Who
sustains and protects all that exists” [Ta-Ha, 20: 111].[narrated in
amarfu‟ report (one that is traced all the way back to the Prophet
[Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam],Tafsir of Imam Ibn Kathir)]
The Prophet said, “Whoever recites 4 verses from the first part of
Surah Al Baqarah, the verse of the Throne, two verses after the
verse of the Throne and three verses from the last part of Surah al
Baqarah, Satan would never come near him or the members of his
family on that day, and nothing he despises would come near him
or the members of his family, and never are these verses recited
over a madman without him regaining his consciousness‟[Darimi
3249/A in the Book of Excellence of the Quran; an-Nasai in the
Deeds during the Day and Night; Ibn Hibban& Tabrani]
Abdullah ibn Mas‟ud (RA) said, “Whoever recited ten verses
from Al-Baqarah in the night, Satan shall not have access to that
house, during the night till he wakes in the morning. Theseare:
Four from the first part of the Surah, followed by the verse of the
Throne, two verses after the verse of the Throne and three from
the last part of the Surah‟.[Darimi 3248/A]
Abu Umamah (RA) reported that the Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe
Wassallam) said, “Recite Surah Al-Baqarah: for to hold on to it is
a barakah (blessing), to leave it is a regret” [Muslim]
Abu Hurairah (RA) reported that the Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe
Wassallam) said, “Everything has a hump, and the hump of the
Qur’an is Al-Baqarah‟[at-Tirmidhi, ad-Darami]
Abu Mas‟ud al-Badri (RA) reported that the Prophet (Sallaho
Alaihe Wassallam) said, “If anyone recites the two ayats at the
end of Surat al-Baqarah (2) at night, they will be enough for
him.”[Sahih al-Bukhari 6:61 #530, Agreed upon]
It was narrated from Abdullah ibn Ubayy ibn Ka‟b (RA) that his
father told him that he had a vessel in which he kept dates. He
used to check on it and found that the number was decreasing. So
64
he kept guard on it one night and saw a beast that looked like an
adolescent boy. He said: I greeted him with Salaam and he
returned my greeting, then I asked him, “What are you, a jinn or a
human?” He said, “A jinn.” I said to him, “Show me your hand.”
So he showed me his hand, and it looked like a dog’s paw with
dog’s fur. I said, “Do all the jinn look like this?” He said, “I know
no one among the jinn who is stronger than I.” I said, “What made
you do what you did [i.e., taking the dates]?” He said, “We heard
that you are a man who loves charity, and we wanted to have
some of your food.” Ubayy asked him, “What will protect us from
you?” He said, “This verse, Ayat Al-Kursi.” Then the next day he
[Ubayy] went to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
and told him (about what had happened) and he said, “The evil
one spoke the truth.”[Tafsir of Imam Ibn Katheer]
Ibn ‘Abbas (RA) said, “While Jibril (alayhis salam) was sitting
with the Prophet, he heard a sound above him and raised his head.
He said, ‘This is a door of heaven which has been opened today
and which has never been opened before today. An angel
descended from it. He said, “This is an angel who has descended
to earth who has never descended before today. He gave the
greeting and said, “Give the good news of two lights which you
have been given and which no Prophet before you was given: the
Fatiha of the Book and the end of Surah al-Baqarah (2).You will
not recite a letter of them without being given it.”[Muslim, Riyad
as-Salihin by Imam An-Nawawi]
Abu Umamah (RA) reported that the Messenger of Allah (Sallaho
Alaihe Wassallam) said “Read the two radiant ones Al-Baqarah
and Al-Imran for they will come on the Day of Resurrection like
two clouds, or two shades, or two flocks of birds, pleading for
their companions”[Muslim]
Al- Nawwas Ibn Sam’an (RA) reported that the Messenger of
Allah (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said “The Qur’an will be
brought on the Day of Resurrection, along with its companions
who used to act by it, at the front being Surah Al-Baqarah and Al-
65
Imran like two black clouds or canopies with light, or two flocks
of birds pleading for their companion‟[Muslim]
Abu Huraira (RA) said, “The Messenger of Allah (Sallaho Alaihe
Wassallam) put me in charge of guarding the zakat of Ramadan.
Someone came and began to take handfuls of food. I grabbed him
and said, “By Allah, I will take you to the Messenger of Allah!”
He said, “I am needy and have a large family and I am in dire
need. I let him go and in the morning the Prophet said, “Abu
Huraira, what did you do with your prisoner yesterday?” I said,
“Messenger of Allah, he complained of dire need and a large
family, so I showed mercy to him and let him go on his way.” He
said, “He lied to you and he will come back.” So, from the words
of the Messenger of Allah, I knew that he would come back.
Therefore, I lay in wait for him and he came and once more began
to take handfuls of food. I seized him and said, “I will take you to
the Messenger of Allah!” He said, “Let me go. I am in need and
have a large family. I will not come back again.‟ I had mercy on
him and let him go his way. In the morning the Messenger
of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said to me,
“Abu Huraira, what did you do with your prisoner yesterday?” I
said, “Messenger of Allah, he complained of dire need and a large
family, so I showed mercy to him and let him go on his way. He
said, “He lied to you and he will come back.” So I lay in wait for
him a third time and he came and began to take handfuls of food. I
grabbed him and said, „I will take you to the Messenger of Allah!
This is the third time. You claimed you would not come back and
then you came back.” He said, “Let me go. I will teach you some
words which will help you with Allah.” I said, “What are they?”
He said, “When you go to bed, recite the Throne Verse, “Allah,
there is no god but Him, the Living, the Self-Sustaining…” to the
end of the ayat. You will have someone guarding over you from
Allah and shaitan will not come near you until morning.‟ So I let
him go his way. In the morning, the Messenger of Allah (Sallaho
Alaihe Wassallam) said to me, “What did you do with your
66
prisoner yesterday?‟ I said, „Messenger of Allah, he claimed that
he would teach me some words which would help me with Allah,
so I let him go his way.‟ He said, “What are they?‟ I said, „He
said to me, “When you go to bed, recite the Throne Verse to the
end: “Allah, there is no god but Him, the Living, the Self-
Sustaining”. He said to me, “You will have someone guarding
over you from Allah and shaitan will not come near you until
morning.” The Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said, “He told
you the truth even though he is a liar. Do you know whom you
were speaking with on these three days, Abu Huraira?” He said,
“No.” The Prophet said, “It was Shaitan.”[Sahih al-Bukhari]
Surah al Imran (3)
Abdullah ibn Masud (RA) said, “What an excellent treasure Surah
al Imran is to the pauper when he recites it in prayer during the
last part of the night” [Darimi 3264/A]
The Prophet said, “Allah’s most Magnificent name, which when
used to implore Him, He responds, is found in three Surahs. Al
Baqara, Al Imran and Taha” [Hakim &Ibn Majah 3856]The
Prophet said to Muadh (RA), “Should I not teach you a
supplication which, when used to implore Allah, Allah shall pay
your debt, even it be as huge as Mount Uhud? He then mentioned
them (i.e. Surah Al Imran verse 26 & 27)‟[Tabarani inAl Saghir
1/330]
Makhul (RA) reported that the Messenger of Allah (Sallaho
Alaihe Wassallam) said, “If anyone recites Al Imran on a Friday,
the angels will invoke blessings on him till night comes.”[Darimi
transmitted it. Mishkat al-Masabih #2172]
Usman ibn Affan (RA) reported that the Messenger of Allah
(Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said, “If anyone recites the end of
Surah Al Imran at night, the reward for a night spent in prayer will

Alaihe Wassallam) said “Read the two radiant ones al-Baqarah
and Al Imran for they will come on the Day of Resurrection like
67
two clouds, or two shades, or two flocks of birds, pleading for
their companions‟[Muslim]
Al- Nawwas Ibn Sam‟an (RA) reported that the Messenger of
Allah (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam)said “The Qur’an will be
brought on the Day of Resurrection, along with its companions

Imran like two black clouds or canopies with light, or two flocks
of birds pleading for their companion” [Muslim]

Jabir (RA) reported that The Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam)
said, “So many Angels accompanied its revelation that the horizon
was covered with them” [Hakim, Dhahabi &Baihaqi]
The Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said, “The Qur’an was
revealed in one fifth part, whoever memorized it in one fifth parts
would not forget it. Except for Surah al An’am, which was
revelaed in it’s entirety, seen off by seventy angels from each
heaven until they delivered it to the Prophet. Never has it been
recited over a sick person, without Allah granting him a cure”
[Baihaqi & Khatib]

Muslim”[Ibn Asakir]
Surah al Kahf (18)
68
The Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said, “Whoever recited
Surah al Kahf in the same manner in which it was revealed, it will
serve for him as a light on the Day of Judgement, from his
domicile to Makkah. And whoever recited the last ten verses, and
it happens that the Dajjal should appear after that, Dajjal will not
be empowered over him”.[Hakim 1/564 & Dhahabi]

Abu’d-Darda reported that the Messenger of Allah (Sallaho

Alaihe Wassallam) said, “Anyone who memorizes ten ayats from
the beginning of Surat al-Kahf (18) will be protected from the
Dajjal.”[Muslim, Riyad as-Salihin by Imam an-Nawawi 183

The Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said, “Whoever recited
Surah al Kahf on a Friday, Allah will kindle for him abundant
light to brightly illuminate the period between the two Fridays (the
Friday on which the recitation was made and the next Friday)‟
[Hakim 2/367,Mishkat al-Masabih #2175, however Baihaqi
disagreed with it’s authenticity in Sahih Al Jami2/1104]
Narrated Al-Bara‟bin Azib: A man was reciting Surah Al-Kahf
and his horse was tied with two ropes beside him. A cloud came
down and spread over that man, and it kept on coming closer and
closer to him till his horse started jumping (as if afraid of
something). When it was morning, the man came to the Prophet,
and told him of that experience. The Prophet said, “That was As-
Sakina (tranquility) which descended because of (the recitation of)
the Qur’an.” [Sahihal-Bukhari 6:61 #531, at-Tirmidhi 2810/A]
Surah Ta Ha (20)
Abu Hurairah (RA) reported that Allah’s messenger (Sallaho
Alaihe Wassallam) said, A thousand years before creating the
heavens and the Earth, Allah recited Ta-Ha and Ya-Sin, and when
the angels heard the recitation they said, „Happy are the people to
whom this comes down, happy are the minds which carry this, and

69
happy are the tongues which utter this.[Darami transmitted it, at-
Tirmidhi]
Abu Umamah (RA) reported that the messenger of Allah (Sallaho
Alaihe Wassallam) said, “The greatest name of Allah, which if He
is called by it, He responds, is in three surahs: Al-Baqarah, Al -
Imran and Ta-Ha.” Hisham ibn Ammar, the Khateeb of
Damascus, said: “In Al-Baqarah, it is “Allah! There is no god but
He, the Ever-Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that
exist” [Al-Baraqah, 2: 255]. In Al-Imran it is “Alif. Laam. Meem.
Allah! There is no god but He, the Ever-Living, the One Who
sustains and protects all that exists” [Al-Imran, 3: 1-2]. And in Ta-
Ha it is “And (all) faces shall be humbled before (Allah), the
Ever -Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that exists”
[Ta-Ha, 20: 111]. [Narrated in amarfu report (one that is traced all
the way back to the Prophet [Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam], Tafsir of
Imam Ibn Kathir)]
Surah al Mu’minun (23)
Ibn Masud (RA) recited (Surah al Mu’minun from verse 115 to
118) in the ear of an afflicted person and the man was cured. The
Prophet said, “What did you recite in his ear?”. Ibn Masud told
him, and the Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said, “By He in
Whose hand lies my soul, were a believing man to recite it over a
mountain, it would have melted”. [Fath al Qadir 3/502]

Surah as Sajdah (32)

The Prophet would not sleep until he recited Surah as Sajdah. [at-
Tirmidhi 5/165; Hakim 2/412& Dhahabi in Sahih al Jamiea
(22/789)]
Khalid ibn Ma’dan (RA) said, “Recite the Deliverer, which is Alif
Laam Tanzeel, for I have heard that a man who had committed
many sins used to recite it and nothing else. It spread it’s wing
over him and said, “O’ My Lord, forgive him, for he often used to
recite me.” So the Lord Most High made it an intercessor for him

70
and said, “Record for him a good deed and raise him a degree in
place of every sin.”
Khalid (RA) also said, “It will dispute on behalf of the one who
recites it when he is in his grave saying, “O’ Allah, if I am part of
Thy Book, make me an intercessor for him. But if I am not a part
of Thy Book, blot me out of it.” It will be like a bird putting its
wing on him, it will intercede for him and will protect him from
the punishment in the grave.” He said the same about
Tabaarakalladhi (Surah Mulk). Khalid (RA) did not go to sleep at
night till he had recited them. Taus said that they were given sixty
virtues more than any other Surah in the Holy Qur’an.
Surah Yasin (36)
Anas (RA) reported that the messenger of Allah (Sallaho Alaihe

for him ten readings of the Qur’an” [At-Tirmidhi 2812/A &
Dhahabi, Maqal]
The Prophet said, “Whoever recited Surah Yasin in the night
seeking Allah’s pleasure, Allah would forgive him” [Ibn Hibban,
Darimi 3283/A, Abu Yala, Tabarani, Baihaqi & Ibn Mardawaih]
Abu Hurairah (RA) narrated that the messenger of Allah (Sallaho
Alaihe Wassallam) said, “Whoever reads Surat Ya-Sin in the
night, he will be forgiven. And whoever reads Ha-Meem,the one
in which smoke is mentioned, he will be forgiven.”[Abu Ya’la
reported it]
Ma’qil Ibn Yasar (RA) reported that the messenger of Allah

Allah‟s pleasure, his past sins will be forgiven, so recite it
over the dying among you‟[Bayhaqi]

The messenger of Allah (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said,

Ha-Meem (another name for Surah Al-Fussilat).
Chapters beginning with Ha-Meem are beautiful, fresh, fragrant,
71

Allah (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said, “Whoever reads Surat Ya-
Sin in the night, he will be forgiven. And whoever reads Ha-
Meem, the one in which smoke is mentioned, he will be forgiven.”
[Abu Ya‟la reported it]
The messenger of Allah (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said,
“Chapters beginning with Ha-Meemare beautiful, fresh, fragrant,
splendid meadows. Whosoever desires to walk around in the
meadows of Paradise should recite these surahs” [Al-Tadhkar Fi
Afdal Al-Adhkar by Imam al-Qurtubi]

Bukhari 6:61 #532]
Surah Ar Rahman (55)
The Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) went to the companions
and recited Surah ar Rahman but they were all quiet. He told them

responsive. And when he would recite the verses “And which of
the favors of the Lord will you deny” the jinn would respond
72

praise belong to Allah” [Tirmidhi, Ibn al Mundhir, Al Adhama &
Hakim 2/474]
Abdullah Ibn Mas‟ud (RA) reported that the Prophet (Sallaho

Surah Ar Rahman” [Bayhaqi
in Shuab al Eiman]

Abdullah ibn Mas‟ud reported that the Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe
Wassallam) said, “Whoever recites surah Al Waqiah at night

The Prophet said, “Surah al Waqiah is the Surah of Wealth, so
recite it and teach it to your children” [Ibn Asakir]

Surah al Hadid (57)

The Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) used to recite Surahs of
Glorification before returing and he said that there is a verse in
them which is better than a thousand verses. [Tirmidhi 5/181]
Note: These Surahs are: Al-Hadid, Al-Hashr, As-Saf, Al-Jum’ah
and At-Tagabun
Surah al Hashr (59)
The Prophet said, “Whoever when he wakes in the morning
says ;“I seek refuge with Allah against the accursed satan” and
then recited three verses from the last part of Surah al Hashr, will
be assigned seventy thousand angels to pray for him until the
evening, and should he die that day, he would have died a martyr”
[Ibn Ahmad, Darimi, Tirmidhi 5/182]
Surah al Mulk (67)
The Prophet said, “There is a surah in the Qur’an which is only
thirty verses. It defended whoever recited it until it puts him into
paradise” i.e. Surah al Mulk [Fath al Qadir 5/257,Sahihul Jamiea
1/680, Tabrani in Al-Awsat & Ibn Mardawaith]
73
Abu Huraira (RA) reported that the Messenger of Allah (Sallaho
Alaihe Wassallam) said, “The Qur’an contains a surah of thirty
ayats which will intercede for a man until he is forgiven. It is:
“Blessed be He who has the Kingdom in His Hand!” (67)”
[Abu Dawud, Ahmad, at-Tirmidhi,Riyad as-Salihin by Imam an-
Nawawi Ch.183 #1016]The Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam)

Abdullah Ibn Abbas (RA) reported that the Prophet (Sallaho
Alaihe Wassallam) said, “It is my desire/love that Surahtul Mulk
should be in the heart of every Muslim” [Hakim, al-HisnulHaseen
by the classical scholar Muhammad al-Jazri]
Ibn Abbas (RA) said that one of the Prophet’s (Sallaho Alaihe
Wassallam) companions set up his tent over a grave without
realizing that it was a grave and it contained a man who was
reciting the Surah Tabarakallahi Biyadihil Mulk up to the end. He
went and told the Prophet Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) who said,
“It is The Defender; it is The Protector which safeguards from
Allah Ta’ala’s punishment” [at-Tirmidhi]
Khalid bin Madam (tabie) said about Surat Al Mulk and As Sajda
that these two surahs will fight for their reciter in the grave and
will say, “O Allah! If we belongto your book,accept
our intercession in his favor. In case we do not, get us obliterated.
These Surahs will spread their wings like birds and will save the
person from the torment of the grave.” [Mishkat al-Misbah]

74
It was narrated that Abdullah ibn Mas‟ud said: Whoever reads
Tabarakallahi Biyadihil Mulk [i.e. Surah al-Mulk] every night,
Allah will protect him from the torment of the grave. At the time
of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alaiyhi wasalam) we used to
call it al-mani’ah (that which protects). In the Book of Allah it is a
surah which, whoever recites it every night has done very well.

The Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) used to seek refuge from
the jinn as well as from the evil eye until Surah al Falaq and An
Naas were revealed. When they were sent down, he utilized them
and left other things.[at-Tirmidhi #1984, Riyad as-Salihin by
