When does the one who wants to sleep read Surat al-Mulk?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The hadith: Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2892Da'if (Darussalam) And in the hadith , is this when he lies down on the bed at night, or before lying down?
The Shaykh : The important thing is that it happens from him before he sleeps, as for sitting or not, that is up to him.
Narrated Jabir: The Prophet (ﷺ) would not sleep until he recited Alif Lam Mim Tanzil and: Tabarak Alladhi Biyadihil-Mulk." This Hadith was reported similarly by more than one from Laith bin Abi Sulaim. Mughirah bin Muslim reported it from Abu Az-Zubair, from Jabir from the Prophet (ﷺ) and it is similar to this. Zuhair reported it and said: "I said to Abu Az-Zubair: 'Did you hear Jabir mentioning this Hadith?' He said: 'Safwan or Ibn Safwan informed me of it.'" It is as if Zuhair rejected the idea that this Hadith was from Abu Az-Zubair from Jabir. (Another chain) with similar in meaning. (Another chain) that Tawus said: "They are seventy good merits more of virtue in it than every Surah in the Qur'an."
