Reward of reciting Surah Fatiha

It is mentioned in Majmaul Bayan from the Prophet (s.a.w.s.) that he said: One who recites it, is like one who has recited two thirds of Quran and similarly is one who gifts the rewards to the believing men and women. By the One in Whose hands is my life, Allah has not revealed anything like it in Taurat, Injeel and Zabur, and it is the mother (source) of Quran and the seven oft-repeated verses and it is distributed between the Hands of Allah and His servants and for the servant who asks. It is the greatest chapter in the Book of Allah.

It is narrated from al-Imam as-Sadiq (a.s.) that he said: If you recite al-Hamd on a dead body 70 times and the soul returns to it, it will not be surprising.

In Tibbul Aaimma it is narrated from one of them (a.s.) that he said: I did not recite al-Hamd for a pain 70 seventy times but that it was cured by the leave of Allah, the Exalted. If you like, you can try it and do not doubt it.

It is narrated from al-Imam al-Baqir (a.s.) that he said: All those who do not benefit by Surah Hamd and Qul huwallaaho Ahad (Surah Tawheed), will not benefit by anything. All the maladies are cured by these two chapters.

In Misbah of Kafami it is mentioned that it is a cure for everything except death. Also if it is written in a clean utensil and mixed with rainwater and the patient�s face is bathed by it, he will be cured; and if this water is drunk by one whose heart palpitates, he would be cured of it.

Surah Baqarah and Aale Imran

In Thawabul A�amal it is narrated from as-Sadiq (a.s.) that he said: One who recites al-Baqarah and Aale Imran would come to us on the Day of Judgment in such a state that both of them would be shading him like two clouds or two mantles.

Al-Baqarah: Fasten it to those afflicted with pain, sore eyes or anxiety and the epileptic, they would be cured.

Aale Imran: Write it with saffron and rose water and hang it on a tree and it will fructify and fasten it to a woman and she will conceive. One who recites it on a fruit, three times after Bismillah and takes it for stomachache, it will be cured:

رَبَّنَا لاَ تُزِِغْ قُلُوْبَنَا بَعْدَ اِذْ هَدَيْتَنَا وَهَبْ لَنَا مِنْ لَّدُنْكَ رَحْمَةً إنَّكَ اَنْتَ الوَّهَابُ.

Rabbanaa laa tuzigh quloobanaa ba�da idh hadaitanaa wa hablanaa milladunka rah�matan innaka antal wahhaab.

Our Lord! Make not our hearts to deviate after Thou hast guided us aright, and grant us from Thee mercy; surely Thou art the most liberal Giver.[2]

Reward of reciting Surah Nisa

1. Amirul Momineen (a.s.) said: One who recites Surah Nisa every Friday will be safe from the squeeze of the grave.

2. The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) said: One who recites it, it is as if he has given in charity to all the believers that are eligible to inherit from each others, and he would be bestowed a recompense of one who has freed a slave, and he will be immune from polytheism and it is in the hidden wisdom of Allah to recompense him suitably.

One who buries a thing and loses it, then he should write the following in a new utensil and mix it with rain water and sprinkle it on the place it was buried, he would be successful, by the will of Allah.

إِنَّ اللهَ يَامُرُكُمْ اَنْ تُؤَدُّوْا اْلاَمَانَاتِ إِلیٰ اَهْلِهَا وَ إِذَا حَكَمْتُمْ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ اَنْ تَحْكُمُوْا بِالْعَدْلِ، إِنَّ اللهَ نِعِمَّا يَعِظُكمْ بِهِ، إنَّ اللهَ كَانَ سَمِيْعًا بَصِيْرًا.

Innallaaha yaa-murukum an tu-addul amaanaati ilaa ahlihaa wa idhaa h�akamtum bainan naasi an tah�kumu bil a�dli innallaaha ni-i�mmaa yai�zukum bih. Innallaaha kaana sameea�m bas�eeraa.

Surely Allah commands you to make over trusts to their owners and that when you judge between people you judge with justice; surely Allah admonishes you with what is excellent; surely Allah is Seeing, Hearing.[3]

Reward of reciting Surah Maidah

1. Imam al-Baqir (a.s.) said: The belief of the person who recites Surah Maidah on every Thursday shall remain safe from the admixture of wrong and he would not attribute any partner to Allah.

One who writes it and fixes it in his house or his chest (Box), nothing would be stolen from him.

Reward of reciting Surah Anam

1. Imam as-Sadiq (a.s.) said: The Surah Anam was revealed all at once and 70000 angels accompanied it when it descended on the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.). They were respecting it and extolling it. Then indeed the name of Allah, the Blessed, occurs at 70 places in it. If people only knew what benefits lie in its recital, they would never leave it.

2. Ibne Abbas said: One who recites Surah Anam every night would be of the secured ones on the Day of Judgment, and he would never see Fire (of Hell) with his eyes ever.

3. He (a.s.) said: When an illness begins to you and you fear for yourself (death), you will not recite Surah Anam but that you will find yourself cured of the disease that you despised.

4. Ali bin Abi Talib (a.s.) said: It will not be recited on a patient but that Allah would cure him.

One who writes the following from it on a piece of paper at the dawn and fastens it for pain of side (back) and hands he would be cured of it:

وَ إِنْ يَمْسَسْكَ اللهُ بِضُرٍّ فَلاَ كَاشِفَ لَهُ إِلاَّ هُوَ وَ إِن يَمْسَسْكَ بِخَيْرٍ فَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدُيرٌ.

Wa iyn yamsaskallaahu biz�urrin falaa kaashifa lahu illaa huwa wa iyn yamsaska bikhairin fahuwa a�laa kulli shai-in qadeer.

And if Allah touch you with affliction, there is none to take it off but He; and if He visit you with good, then He has power over all things.[4]

Reward of reciting Surah Araaf

1. Imam as-Sadiq (a.s.) said: One who recites Surah Araaf every month would be on the Day of Judgment of those on whom there is no fear and sorrow. If it is recited every Friday there will be no accounting on him on the Day of Judgment. Indeed in it are the clear verses. Then do not leave its recitation and its reading and standing by it for indeed it will testify on the Day of Judgment for the one who has recited it, to its Lord.

2. The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) said: One who recites this Surah, Allah will put a curtain between him and Iblis on the Day of Judgment and he will be in the company of Adam.

One who writes it by rose water and saffron and fastens it, will be safe from snakes, beasts, enemies and deviation from the path.

Reward of reciting Surah Anfal

1. The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) said: One who recites this Surah, I will be an intercessor for him on the Day of Judgment and a witness that he is clean of hypocrisy and rewards equal to number of all hypocrites will be written for him.

One who fastens it upon himself, the ruler will not stay in front of him except that he will judge his dispute in his favor.

Reward of reciting Surah Tawbah

1. The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) said: One who recites this Surah, Allah would raise him on the Day of Judgment free of hypocrisy.

2. Imam as-Sadiq (a.s.) said: One who recites Barat and Anfal every month will never enter into hypocrisy ever, and he would be of the Shias of Amirul Momineen (a.s.), in the true sense. He would eat on the Day of Judgment from the table spreads of Paradise with the Shias of Ali (a.s.) till the people are free of accounting.

One who fixes it in his business or in his headgear will be safe from theft and fire.

Reward of reciting Surah Yunus

1. The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) said: One who recites Surah Yunus, is given ten rewards for each person who testified for Yunus and who denied him, and according to the number of those who were drowned with Firon.

The Almighty Allah says:

وَ إِذَا مَسَّ اْلإِنْسَانَ الضُّرُّ دَعَانَا لِجَنبِهِ أَوْ قَاعِدًا أَوْ قَآئِمًا فَلَمَّا كَشَفْنَا عَنْهُ ضُرَّهُ مَرَّ كَأَنْ لَّمْ يَدْعُنَا إِلَى ضُرٍّ مَّسَّهُ كَذٰلِكَ زُيِّنَ لِلْمُسْرِفِيْنَ مَا كَانُواْ يَعْمَلُوْنَ.

Wa idhaa massal insaanaz� z�urru daa�a�naa lijambihi au qaa-idan au qaa-iman falammaa kashafnaa a�nhu z�urrahu marra ka-allam yad-u�naa ilaa z�urrimmassahu, kadhaalika zuyyina lil musrifeena maa kaanu ya�maloon.

And when affliction touches a man, he calls on Us, whether lying on his side or sitting or standing; but when We remove his affliction from him, he passes on as though he had never called on Us on account of an affliction that touched him; thus that which they do is made fair-seeming to the extravagant.[5]

For pain of the legs, thighs and sides write it on a baked clay utensil, which is clean, then fill it with pure olive oil and heat it on slow fire and massage with it.

Reward of reciting Surah Hud

1. One who recites this Surah will be given as recompense the reward according to the number of people who testified for Hud and prophets (a.s.) and those who denied them; and on the Day of Judgment they would be in the class of the martyrs and they will by accounted with an easy accounting.

2. Imam al-Baqir (a.s.) said: One who recites Surah Hud every Friday would be raised by Allah on the Day of Judgment in the group of prophets and would be accounted with an easy accounting, and none of his sins would be made apparent on the Day of Judgment.

One should engrave the following words of the Almighty on a tablet of teak wood and nail it at the front portion of his boat for safety in the sea:

وَ قَالَ ارْكَبُواْ فِيْهَا بِسْمِ اللهِ مَجْرَاهَا وَمُرْسَاهَا

Wa qaalar kaboo feehaa bismillaahi majraahaa wa mursahaa.

And he said: Embark in it, in the name of Allah be its sailing and its anchoring;[6]

Reward of reciting Surah Yusuf

1. The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) said: Teach Surah Yusuf to your bondsmen, for anywhere Surah Yusuf is recited by a Muslim and taught to his family and those his right hand possess, Allah will ease for him the pain of death and give him such strength that he would not eye with jealousy the strength of anyone else.

2. Imam as-Sadiq (a.s.) said: One who recites Surah Yusuf every day or every night, Allah the High, will raise him on the Day of Judgment while his elegance would be like that of Yusuf (a.s.) and he will not be afflicted by the difficulty of the Day of Judgment and he will be of the best of the righteous servants of Allah.

Reward of reciting Surah Ra�ad

1. The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) said: One who recites the Surah, for him would be a reward of ten deeds according to the weight of all the clouds that have passed away and all those that would come in future. On the Day of Judgment he would be raised among the believers who fulfilled Allah�s covenant.

2. Imam as-Sadiq (a.s.) said: One who recites Surah Ra�ad extensively will never be harmed by lighting even if one is a Nasibi. If he is a believer, he would be admitted in Paradise without accounting and he would intercede for all those he knows from his family and from his brothers.

Reward of reciting Surah Ibrahim

The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) said: One who recites this Surah will be rewarded equal to the number of people who worshipped the idols and those who did not worship them.

One who writes it on a piece of white silk cloth and ties it to the arm of an infant, he will be safe from hysteria, crying, etc. and all the bad things.

One who recites the beginning verses of Surah Ibrahim forty times on water, then cooks food with this water and feeds it to his students he will see in them an astonishing eloquence and one who has some subjects and he intends to obtain their obedience then he should recite this on pure water forty times and sprinkles it on his house or at the place he sits. But he must only sprinkle on walls.

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ. اَلۤر كِتَابٌ أَنْزَلْنَاهُ إِلَيْكَ لِتُخْرِجَ النَّاسَ مِنَ الظُّلُمَاتِ إِلَى النُّوْرِ بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِمْ إِلٰى صِرَاطِ الْعَزِيْزِ الْحَمِيْدِ. اَللهِ الَّذِيْ لَهُ مَا فِيْ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ مَا فِيْ اْلأَرْضِ وَ وَيْلٌ لِّلْكَافِرِيْنَ مِنْ عَذَابٍ شَدِيْدٍ. الَّذِينَ يَسْتَحِبُّوْنَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا عَلَى اْلآخِرَةِ وَ يَصُدُّوْنَ عَنْ سَبِيْلِ اللهِ وَ يَبْغُوْنَهَا عِوَجًا أُوْلٰئِكَ فِيْ ضَلاَلٍ بَعِيْدٍ. وَ مَا أَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ رَّسُوْلٍ إِلاَّ بِلِسَانِ قَوْمِهِ لِيُبَيِّنَ لَهُمْ فَيُضِلُّ اللهُ مَنْ يَشَآءُ وَ يَهْدِيْ مَنْ يَشَآءُ وَ هُوَ الْعَزِيْزُ الْحَكِيْمُ.

Bismillaahir rah�maanir rah�eem. Alif laam raa, kitaabun anzalnaahu ilaika litukhrijannaasa minaz� z�ulumaati ilan noori bi-idhni rabbihim ilaa s�iraatil a�zeezil h�ameed.

Alladheena yastah�ibboonal h�ayaatad dunyaa a�lal aakhirati wa yas�uddoona a�n sabeelillaahi wa yabghoonahaa i�wajan oolaaa-ika fee z�alaalim bae�e�d. wa maa arsalnaa minr rasoolin illaa bilisaani qaumihi liyubayyina lahum fayuz�illullaahu mayn yashaa-u wa yahdee mayn yashaa-u wa huwal a�zeezul h�akeem.

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

Alif Lam Ra. (This is) a Book which We have revealed to you that you may bring forth men, by their Lord�s permission from utter darkness into light-to the way of the Mighty, the Praised One. (1) (Of) Allah, Whose is whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth; and woe to the unbelievers on account of the severe chastisement. (2) (To) those who love this world�s life more than the hereafter, and turn away from Allah�s path and desire to make it crooked; these are in a great error. (3) And We did not send any apostle but with the language of his people, so that he might explain to them clearly; then Allah makes whom He pleases err and He guides whom He pleases and He is the Mighty, the Wise. (4)
