Benefits of Ayatul Kursi Ayatul Kursi is verse, 255 of Surah Al-Baqarah and most beautiful ayat of the Qur'an. Surah Baqarah is the leader of the Qur'an and Ayatul Kursi is the leader of Surah Baqarah. In Ayatul Kursi there are 50 words and for each word there are 50 blessings and good in it. It was narrated that Abu Umamah said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: Whoever recites Ayat Al-Kursi immediately after each prescribed Prayer, there will be nothing standing between him and his entering Paradise except death. Hazrat A'isha (RA) states that a person arrived in the court of Rasulallah (SAW) and complained that there is no Barakat (Blessings) in anything in his home. Rasulallah (SAW) said, You do not recite Ayatul Kursi, whichever Food and Curry you will recite Ayatul Kursi on, Allah will give Blessings on that Food and Curry. One who recites Ayatul Kursi every morning will be in the protection, safety of Allah until the night. One who recites Ayatul Kursi every night before go to sleep will be in the protection, safety of Allah until morning. If a person write Ayatul Kursi on white paper and ties this to chidren neck, they will be safe from Shaitaan. For those of our dear ones who have passed away, recitation of Ayatul Kursi & giving it as Hadiya to them, gives them light (noor) in the grave. Frequent recitation makes ones own death easy. Before leaving home, if one recites it once, the Almighty has one group of Angels to come and protect you. If recited twice, 2 groups of Angels are assigned to do this. If recited 3 times Allah tells the Angels not to worry as the Almighty himself takes care of him. The Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) has said: If one recites Ayatul Kursi before going to sleep, Allah will send an Angel to come and look after you and protect you till the morning. His home, family and also neighbours will remain in safety until morning. When one is alone in the home, recitation of Ayatul Kursi and asking Allah to help will make you remain calm and you will not fear. The Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) has said: When leaving home, if one recites Ayat ul Kursi the Allah will send 70,000 Angels to do Istighfaar for him until he returns home, and upon his return Poverty will be removed from him. One who recites it after every prayer, their salaat will be accepted, they will remain in the safety of the Almighty and He will protect them.

Dua Syed-ul-istighfar Tawba must be sort and remains wajib (necessary) for every sin committed. In the case of istigfar (seeking forgiveness), a person is making a request to Allah (SWT) to help their deeds function as a barrier towards future evil. In essence, the individual is asking Allah (SWT) for guidance away from wrongful choices. Istigfar with the words of astagfirullah coupled with sincerity helps in this regards. Thus, astagfaar functions like a duaa. Thus, it can be appropriately stated: refusal to make istigfar is tantamount to arrogance. For one is acting confidant regarding the unknown future actions of themselves. The Prophet (SAW) was asked by some of his companions: Is Allah near so we invoke him or is he far so we call him? So Allah revealed this verse, Allah is near He can hear the supplicant anytime anywhere and respond to him if the supplicant invokes Allah with a sincere heart and avoid interdiction's of supplication. When a person sins and does not do Tawba, his heart darkens (polluted) as he commits more and more sins the dirt accumulates on his heart. It then becomes a vicious circle, the darkening of the heart leads to further sins, and the sins lead to further darkening of the heart. A stage is finally reached when his heart is irreversibly polluted and cannot be cleansed. Such a heart is referred to in narrations as a black heart. The Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) was reciting Istighfar hundred times a day and was praying for his Maghfirat (salvation) though he had not committed a single sin. Hazrat Luqmn tells his son, My dear son! Is not the cock wiser than you? It wakes up before dawn and asks forgiveness but you remain asleep!

Translation: In the Name of Allah, The Beneficent, The Merciful (O Allah! You are my Lord! None has the right to be worshipped but You. You created me and I am Your slave, and I am faithful to my covenant and my promise as much as I can. I seek refuge with You from all the evil I have done. I acknowledge before You all the blessings You have bestowed upon me, and I confess to You all my sins. So I entreat You to forgive my sins, for nobody can forgive sins except You.)

Dua-e-Aman Dua Aman is very helpful for a person who recites it daily between Maghrib and Isha Prayers.(for Safety and Protection) A person in his dream saw the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) very sad and the person ask him the reason of sadness and he said: that during Mehraj he saw many believers being led towards hell and the reason was Iman. His umma was very weak in their Iman and He recommended this Dua for protection of his umma and it will help them in the world, after death and also in the Barzak (resurrection). This Dua is recommended by the Prophet.

Surah Yaseen
Bismi Allahi arrahmani arraheem In the name of Allah, the most Gracious, the most Merciful Benefits of Surah Yaseen This surah is Makki and it has 84 verses. It is commonly known that Surah Yaseen is the heart of the Quran. Why is it known as the heart of the Quran? In our bodies, the heart is considered to be the most important organ. It supplies the entire body with blood to keep us functioning. Without the heart, the body cannot live. It is to emphasize the great importance of Surah Yaseen that it is called the heart of the Quran. It is written in the commentary of Majmaul Bayan whoever recites surah Yaseen solely for seeking the pleasure of Allah (s.w.t.): All his sins will be forgiven and he will be given the reward equal to the reward of reciting the whole Quran 12 times. If this surah is recited near a person on his deathbed, then for each letter recited, 12 angels are sent to pray for his forgiveness and they remain even when the soul is being taken by the Angel of Death. The angels also take part in his funeral rites. If recited near a person who is in Sakarat-ul-Mawt (on the verge of passing away), then an angel brings a drink for the dying person from Jannah and as he drinks of it, he feels greatly eased. In another narration, this surah has been described as the key to all good in this life and in the hereafter and a safety from all evil in this life and in the hereafter. Needs are fulfilled if asked after the recitation of this surah and the reward for its recitation is also compared to performing twenty hajj pilgrimages. Drinking the water in which this surah has been dissolved cures one of a thousand types of illnesses. The Holy Prophet said that everything has its heart and the heart of the Holy Quran is surah Yaseen. He also said that if this surah is recited in a graveyard then all punishment is lifted, for that day, from all the graves and the reciter gets the reward equal to the sum of all the good actions performed by all those who are buried in that graveyard. For those who recite this surah, the heart of the holy Quran, after sunset, Allah would post 1000 angels who would protect them from the mischief of the accursed Shaytan and his agents throughout the night and keep him safe from every calamity; if

this surah is recited in the morning he would be throughout the day among those whom Allah protects from calamities and gives enough livelihood. For him who recites this surah Allah would appoint 30,000 angels to seek forgiveness for him at the time of his funeral bath and accompany him upto the grave; and when he is laid down in the grave these angels pray salat and invoke Allah to keep him safe from the squeezing of the grave; and a light comes out of from his grave till the day of judgement, when he comes out of the grave to go for final reckoning, these angels would be with him to help at the time of crossing the sirat and mizan. He would be in the company of prophets and messengers. No trouble, nor any grief would sadden him. He would not be among those who would be screaming for help. At that time Allah would say: O My servant, intercede on behalf of whomever you like; O My servant, whatever you ask I would give you. He would not be questioned. He would be given a clean document of deliverance, and be among the companions of the Holy Prophet. He would have no sin written in his record of deeds. Whoever recites this surah Allah would give him reward of reciting the whole Quran twelve times.If this surah is recited at the time of dying, Allah appoints angels ten times more in number than its verses, who stand in a rowbefore him, duty-bound to seek forgiveness for him, accompany his corpse, pray salat, till the body is laid down in the grave. If a sick person recites this surah or it is recited for him the time of death, Izrail does not take away his soul unless and until he is given the water of paradise to drink; in the grave he would have peace and tranquillity, and would be happy and glad in paradise. Whose writes this surah on a piece of paper, wears it around the neck would remain safe from every calamity and illness. Whoso writes this surah with rose water and saffron on a china plate, washes it with clean water and drinks it every day for 7 consecutive days (repeating the procedure every time) he would keep in memory whatever he hears; would have an upper hand over whomsoever he debates; would enjoy respect among the people. If a mother drinks this water she would have enough milk to feed her child.
