Assessment of the Book (Indeed, It Is We Who Have Sent Down the Reminder...)
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
There is a small booklet titled (Indeed, It Is We Who Have Sent Down the Reminder, and We Are Its Guardian) which contains some Qur'anic surahs and evidence from Prophetic hadiths, along with the virtue of reciting them and their status, such as Surah al-Mulk, al-Waqi'ah, al-Dukhan, Ya-Sin, al-Kahf, al-Sajdah, and al-Haqqah. Should the reader focus on these to the exclusion of other Qur'anic surahs?
Answer:
No, this requires examination; because many of these hadiths that the author of the booklet referred to are not authentic. It is necessary to look into them. What is established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he used to practice at night or during the day, the believer should do. What is not established is not recommended; it is read like the rest of the Qur'an, read with the Qur'an like the rest of the Qur'an.
As for singling out a surah or a verse for something, that is not done except with evidence. For example, the Verse of the Throne after prayer is recommended, and like [al-Ikhlas:1] and the two protective surahs after every prayer are recommended, and repeated three times after Fajr and after Maghrib; because this is established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
As for something a person comes up with on his own, no. For example, if he says: I want to repeat such and such a surah, Surah al-A'raf, or Surah al-An'am, for instance, it is not repeated except with evidence. It is read like the rest of the Qur'an, except for what has established evidence. What is authentic from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he singled out for something, that is singled out. And this book requires examination. Yes.
