The ruling on consistently reciting Surat Yasin
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Sometimes I make it a habit to recite Surat Yasin after every Fajr prayer, and then I stop for a period, out of fear that making it a habit might be a religious innovation (bid'ah). If I were to continue making it a habit, would I be committing a sin?
Answer:
Do not recite it, and do not make it a habit. It is not prescribed to recite it after Fajr or at any other time. There is no report that Yasin is recited after the obligatory prayers. A weak hadith was reported that it is recited for the one who is dying, the one who is in the state of death, and it was reported that it is recited for him, but this is not established from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
