Virtues Of Ayatul-Kursi – Hadith (2/2)

· 16 Jumada II 1441 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

Is this Hadith authentic?

Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:

من قرأها (آية الكرسي) حين يأخذ مضجعه أمنه الله على داره ودار جاره والدويرات حوله

Answer

Imam Bayhaqi (rahimahullah) has recorded this Hadith on the authority of Sayyiduna ‘Ali (radiyallahu ‘anhu).

Sayyiduna ‘Ali (radiyallahu ‘anhu) reports that Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “…Whomsoever recites Ayatul Kursi when going to bed, Allah Ta’ala will protect his home, his neighbours home as well as the homes around him.”

(Shu’abul Iman, Hadith: 2174)

The chain consists of a narrator who has been declared extremely weak by some Muhaddithun and a liar by other Muhaddithun.

(Refer: Mizanul I’tidal, vol. 5 pg. 36, number: 8616)

And Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
