Ali ibn Ibrahim and a number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Abu ‘Abdallah -asws and Sahl ibn Ziyad all from Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Abu Muhammad Al-Ansari from Aban ibn ‘Uthman who has said the following: “A man once complained before Abu ‘Abdallah -asws about the Jinn’s bothering his family.
He -asws asked, ‘How much is the height of your house?’ He replied, ‘It is ten yards.’ He -asws said, ‘Make it eight yards, then write verse 2:255 between the eighth and tenth yards as you go around; a house with a roof higher than eight yards is an assembly place for Jinn who come and live there.’” [19] Rewards of reciting Ayat Al-Kursi: عيون أخبار الرضا عليه السلام بِإِسْنَادِ التَّمِيمِيِّ عَنِ الرِّضَا عَنْ آبَائِهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَنْ قَرَأَ آيَةَ الْكُرْسِيِ مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ كَانَ كَمَنْ عَبَدَ اللَّهَ طُولَ حَيَاتِه Ibn Babawaih states in Oyun Akhbar Al-Reza -asws Book: Imam Reza -asws said that the Messenger -saww of Allah -azwj said: “He who recites Al-Kursi verse one hundred times is as if he worshiped for all of his life.” [20] الْقُطْبُ الرَّاوَنْدِيُّ فِي لُبِ اللُّبَاب النَّبِيِّ ص قَالَ مَنْ قَرَأَ آيَةَ الْكُرْسِيِّ مَرَّةً مُحِيَ اسْمُهُ مِنْ دِيوَانِ الْأَشْقِيَاءِ وَ مَنْ قَرَأَهَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ اسْتَغْفَرَتْ لَهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَ مَنْ قَرَأَهَا أَرْبَعَ مَرَّاتٍ شَفَعَ لَهُ الْأَنْبِيَاءُ وَ مَنْ قَرَأَهَا خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ كَتَبَ اللَّهُ اسْمَهُ فِي دِيوَانِ الْأَبْرَارِ وَ اسْتَغْفَرَتْ لَهُ الْحِيتَانُ فِي الْبِحَارِ وَ وُقِيَ شَرَّ الشَّيْطَانِ وَ مَنْ قَرَأَهَا سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ أُغْلِقَتْ عَنْهُ أَبْوَابُ النِّيرَانِ وَ مَنْ قَرَأَهَا ثَمَانِيَ مَرَّاتٍ فُتِحَتْ لَهُ أَبْوَابُ الْجِنَانِ وَ مَنْ قَرَأَهَا تِسْعَ مَرَّاتٍ كُفِيَ هَمَّ الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ وَ مَنْ قَرَأَهَا عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ نَظَرَ اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ بِالرَّحْمَةِ وَ مَنْ نَظَرَ اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ بِالرَّحْمَةِ فَلَا يُعَذِّبُه Al-Qutb Al-Rawandy states in Lub Al-Albab Book: The Messenger -saww of Allah -azwj said: “He who recites Al-Kursi verse, his names is removed from the list of the miserable.
For he who recites it three times, angels will ask forgiveness. For he who recites it four times the prophets will intercede. For he who recites it five times Allah -azwj will write his name in the list of the righteous, whales of the seas will ask forgiveness for him, and he will be protected from the evilness of demons. The doors of hell will close in the face of he who recites it seven times.
