FADHAIL (VIRTUES) OF AYAT AL KURSI AND
IT’S BENEFITS:
Hadith 1
Ubayy b. Ka'b said: Allah's
Messenger (may peace be upon him)
said: O Abu' al-Mundhir, do you
know the verse from the Book of
Allah which, according to you, is the
greatest? I said: Allah and His
Apostle (may peace be upon him)
know best. He again said: Abu'l-
Mundhir, do you know the verse from
the Book of Allah which, according to
you, is the greatest? I said: Allah,
there is no god but He, the Living,
the Eternal. Thereupon he struck me
on my breast and said: May
knowledge be pleasant for you, O
Abu'l-Mundhir!

Translation: Abi Amama (ra) narrates
that the Prophet (Peace be upon him)
said: Whosoever recites Ayat al Kursi
after every Prayer then nothing can
stop him from entering Paradise
except for death (i.e. he will for sure
enter paradise after death) [Sunnan
Nasai’i al Kubra, (6/30), At-Tabrani
in his Al-Kabeer (8/114), Ibn Sunni
in Amal al Yawm wal Layla (Page.
43), Imam al-Haythami in Majma az-
Zawaid (10/106) where he declared
the chain as “HASAN (FAIR)” and
others]
Hadith 3
Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah 's
Apostle ordered me to guard the
Zakat revenue of Ramadan. Then
somebody came to me and started
stealing of the foodstuff. I caught him
and said, "I will take you to Allah's
Apostle!" Then Abu Huraira described
the whole narration and said: That
person said (to me), "Please don't
take me to Allah's Apostle and I will
tell you a few words by which Allah
will benefit you. When you go to your
bed, recite Ayat-al-Kursi, (2:255) for
then there will be a guard from Allah
who will protect you all night long,
and Satan will not be able to come
near you till dawn." (When the
Prophet heard the story) he said (to
me), "He (who came to you at night)
told you the truth although he is a
liar; and it was Satan."
