Collecting the Hadith of the Verse of the Throne and the Hadith of Sniffing
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
In his second question, he says: How do we reconcile the hadith that says, "Whoever recites the Verse of the Throne, no devil will approach him," with the hadith that says, "When one of you wakes up, he should sniff frequently, for the devil sleeps in his nostrils"?
The Shaykh:
Yes, this is one thing and that is another. If he seeks refuge from the devil when going to sleep, recites his portion of the Qur'an, and recites the Verse of the Throne, then the devil will stay away from him during his sleep. If he does not recite it, the devil will dominate him with dreams and disturbances in his sleep. Yes.
The questioner:
Is the Verse of the Throne a protection for him against the devil?
The Shaykh:
Yes, the Verse of the Throne is a protection against the devil.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh
