520 of al-Kaf’ami’s Misbah...

520 of al-Kaf’ami’s Misbah, has said, "Whoever recites it, Jesus (as) will pray and seek forgiveness for him as long as he is in the life of this world, and he will be his companion on the Day of Judgement ." Imam Ja’fer al-Sadiq (as) is quoted saying that if one recites it quite often in his obligatory and optional prayers, Allah will place him in the ranks of His angels, prophets and messengers.

Chapter 62 (al-Jum’a) The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) has said, "Whoever recites it will be granted ten good deeds for each and everyone who attended and who did not attend Friday congregational prayers in all Muslim lands." Imam Ja’fer al-Sadiq (as) has said, "Every believing man and woman, if he is one of our followers, must recite during Friday night both Surat al-Jum’a and Surat al-A’la, and in his noon prayers he has to recite Surat al-Jum’a and Surat al-Munafiqun; so, if he/she does so, he/she will be regarded as following in the footsteps of the Prophet (pbuh), and his/her rewards from Allah will be Paradise." Chapter 63 (al-Munafiqun) The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) is quoted as having said that anyone who recites this Chapter will be cleared from doubt and hypocrisy with regard to the creed.

Chapter 64 (al-Taghabun) Al-Kaf’ami and al-Majlisi indicate that lbn al-Bataini cites lbn-Abul‘Alaa quoting Abu Busayr quoting Abu Abdullah Irnam al-Sadiq (as) saying that one who recites this Sura in his obligatory and optional prayers, it will intercede for him on the Day of Judgement and be a truthful witness for him testifying to the One Who will permit it to testify, and it shall not part with him till it escorts him into Paradise.

Chapter 65 (al-Talaq) The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) is quoted by al-Kaf’ ami and aL Majlisi, as well as by the author of Al-Dun- al-Manihur who indicates the same on p. 107, Vol. 6, of his book, saying that whoever recites this Chapter will die as an adherent of the Sunnah of the Prophet (pbuh).

Imam Ja’fer al-Sadiq (as) is quoted saying that it one recites it together with Surat al-Tahreem in his obligatory prayers will be given refuge on the Day of Judgement from fear and depression and from the fire. Chapter 66 (al-Tahreem) The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) has said that whoever recites this Sura will be granted by Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala a true repentance.

Both al-Majlisi and al-Tibrisi indicate that the rewards of reciting this Sura are the same like those due for whoever recites Surat al-Talaq.
