Question:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good. Is it true that when going to sleep, if a person recites Surat al-Fatihah four times, it is as if he gave charity of four thousand dirhams? I hope you will clarify this.
Answer:
Reciting Surat al-Fatihah when going to sleep has no basis and no evidence for it. What is authentic is that one recites Ayat al-Kursi, Surat al-Ikhlas, and the two Mu'awwidhat when going to sleep. These three surahs, along with Ayat al-Kursi, are what is recited when going to sleep. As for reciting al-Fatihah in this place, there is no evidence for it. Yes.
