Аятуль курси на английском как пишется

There are certain verses in the Quran that were revealed by Allah to help guide us. They are so powerful that by simply reciting them you, your home and your family would be protected from many evils and from the powers of Shaitan.

This verse is ayah 255 from Surah Baqarah commonly referred to as Ayatul Kursi (meaning “The Throne”). It is likely the most well known ayat across the entire Ummah, estimation is that hundreds of million of people know it by heart. It would more difficult to find a believing Muslim who doesn’t know Ayatul Kursi than one who does. This is something you really can’t say about many other verses from the Quran. 

Abdullah Ibn Masud (RA), A Companion of the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said, “Allah the lofty did not create anything in the skies or on earth, in Jannat or Jahannam, Loftier than Ayatul Kursi.”

Subhanallah!

By the end of this post you’ll a have deeper appreciation for this ayah and it’s beauty. If you haven’t committed this prayer to memory then inshallah by the end we’ll help you with that as well.

Allahu laaa ilaaha illaa huwal haiyul qai-yoom 
laa taakhuzuhoo sinatunw wa laa nawm; lahoo maa fissamaawaati wa maa fil ard 
man zallazee yashfa’u indahooo illaa be iznih

English Translation:

Allah – there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence.
Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep.
To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth.
Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission?
He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills.
His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not.
And He is the Most High, the Most Great.

In Arabic

اللَّهُ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ الْحَيُّ الْقَيُّومُ لاَ تَأْخُذُهُ سِنَةٌ وَلاَ نَوْمٌ لَهُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الأَرْضِ مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يَشْفَعُ عِنْدَهُ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِهِ يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ وَلاَ يُحِيطُونَ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ عِلْمِهِ إِلاَّ بِمَا شَاءَ وَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ السَّمَاواتِ وَالأَرْضَ وَلاَ يَئُودُهُ حِفْظُهُمَا وَهُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيمُ

Did You Know?

In these short verse, it lists over 15 Attributes of Allah (swt) and directly uses 7 of the 99 names. Do you think you can identify the 7 names?

In another verse of Suratul Baqarah, Allah says, “Remember Me and I will Remember you”. We all know to have everything we want in this life and hereafter that we must constantly remember Allah. Nothing can happen without his decree. 

This Verse is the ultimate form or praise a believer can give.

Attributes of Allah Mentioned

Here’s a breakdown of some of the attributes listed in this Ayah and mentions from other verses.

There is no deity worthy of worship except Allah SWT:
There is only one God and it is Him. This verse embodies the concept of Tawhid (oneness of Allah).

You only worship, besides Allah, idols, and you produce a falsehood. Indeed, those you worship besides Allah do not possess for you [the power of] provision. So, seek from Allah provision and worship Him and be grateful to Him. To Him you will be returned.” (Quran 29:17)

The Ever Living
And rely upon the Ever-Living who does not die and exalt [Allah] with His praise. And sufficient is He to be, with the sins of His servants, Acquainted (Quran 25:58)

The Sustainer of (All) Existence
Allah – there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of existence. (Quran 3:2)

The Rightful Owner Of Heaven and Earth
Do you not know that to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and [that] you have not besides Allah any protector or any helper? (Quran 2:107)

Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep
They have not appraised Allah with true appraisal. Indeed, Allah is Powerful and Exalted in Might. (Quran 22:74)

Owner Of The Throne (Kursi)
Indeed, it is He who originates [creation] and repeats. And He is the Forgiving, the Affectionate, Glorious Owner of the Throne, Effecter of what He intends. (Quran 85:12-16)

Benefits of Ayatul Kursi

Here is a video about the importance of Ayatul Kursi in a talk by Mufti Menk. 

Here’s list of benefits according to Hadith and Scholars.

• One who recites ayatul kursi every morning will be in the protection, safety of Allah until the night.
• It also said that “Whoever recites ayatul kursi immediately after each prescribed prayer (salah), there will be nothing stranding between him and his entering paradise except death.” The prophet (ﷺ) Sahih Al Jami, (NO. 6464).
• Recitation of ayatul kursi on behalf of those who have passed away gives light (noor) in their graves.
• Learn Ayatul Kursi so that you can say it before leaving your home.  Recite it once before leaving,  The Almighty will send down a group of Angels to protect you. Reciting it two times,  2 groups of angels are sent down. Say it a total of  3 times no angels will come down because Allah himself will take care of you.
•  Saying this ayat to one’s wealth or to his children, they will be protected from the Shaitan
• When one is alone in the house, recitation of Ayatul Kursi and asking Allah for help will make you remain calm and you will not fear.
• Whoever recites the first four ayats of Surah Al Baqarah followed by Ayatul Kursi and then the last 3 ayats of Surah Baqarah, will not be inflicted with any kind of difficulty in his wealth or himself, Shaitaan will not come near him and he will not forget the Quran
  (According to Abu Masood Al Ansaari and narrated by Al-Bukhaari, 4723; Mulsim, 807)
• Hadhrat Hassan bin Ali (ra) says: “A person once asked: “Oh Rasulallaah (ﷺ) what does that person receive who recites Ayatul Kursi after every Fard Salaat ? Nabi (ﷺ) said: “That person remains under the protection of Allah until the next Salaat.”
• Hadhrat Abu Qatada (RA) narrates that Nabi (ﷺ) said.“Whoever reads Ayatul Kursi and the last Ayat of Surah Baqarah when in difficulty, then Allah listens to that plea.”

Tips For Memorization

There is no substitute for doing the work and practicing over and over again. Let me ask you a question, what is 6×6?

I’m sure you all answered 36 and took no longer than a second. You’re unconscious with ease spoke and gave you the answer, but just go back to when you were younger, it wasn’t always like that. There was a time where memorizing the multiplication table seemed intimidating. But just look at you now, years of practice and you don’t even think about it. Your practically a multiplication wizard, wired to shout the right answer of the times tables. That is up to 12. We weren’t required to practice our 13, 14 and 15 multiplication table.

Realize there’s no substitute for work and practice. It’s not that you’re dumb, or have a slower brain, or that you’re memory just isn’t that great. It’s all comes down to practice. Scroll up to the audio version from YouTube and just play the video repeatedly. Learning the ayah is simple, but it’s not easy. All you would need to do is just listen with focus and attention to Ayatul Kursi 100 times and you would have committed it to memory. There’s no hack.

There are some helpful tips that will the journey easier:

1. Listen to the Audio provided above and follow along with the English transliteration (especially if English is your primary language). This way you can hear and associate with the words. This will make much easier. Also, by listening to recitation you’ll avoid making pronunciation errors.
2. Before starting to memorize just listen. Play through the ayah and get familiar and comfortable.
3. When you’re ready to start memorization process breakup the Ayat into many pieces. You would never eat your steak full, you break it up into tiny digestible pieces and eat it one bite at a time. Only once you’ve ate the current piece in your mouth then you’re ready to move on.
4. Practice reciting the piece you’ve broken the ayah into with your eyes shut. D
5. Once you got your tiny piece memorized throw in another piece and add them together and try reciting the whole two pieces without looking.
6.  Practice, practice, practice. Recite before going to sleep, before leaving the home, entering you car, or going to the gym. Whenever you get the chance say what you have learned and in just few days you’ll have it ingrained in your head and will never forget.
7. It will be difficult but really rewarding. Don’t quit and keep trying. This is the key to success to get anything you want in life. The benefits of this Ayat is well worth learning.

Let us continue to ask for Allah’s protection. Inshallah with his help we will be strong enough to overcome any obstacles in our life. Depression, anxiety, or financial troubles, we all could use a little help at times. Who better to ask then the creator.

Ayatul-Kursi with English Translation:

“Allah! There is no god but He – the Living, The Self-subsisting, Eternal. No slumber can seize Him Nor Sleep. His are all things In the heavens and on earth. Who is there can intercede In His presence except As he permitteth? He knoweth What (appeareth to His creatures As) Before or After or Behind them. Nor shall they compass Aught of his knowledge Except as He willeth. His throne doth extend Over the heavens And on earth, and He feeleth No fatigue in guarding And preserving them, For He is the Most High. The Supreme (in glory).

Benfits of Reciting Ayatul Kursi Everyday:

1).Hadhrat Ali bin Kaab (Radiahallahu Anhu) remarks that Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) asked him,” Which is the most high ranking Aayat in the Qur’aan Kareem?” He said, ” Allaah and His Rasul know best”. Rasulallah repeated this statement very often. Hadhrat Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) stated, “Ayatul Kursi”. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said:”Oh Abul Munzar (family name of Abi bin Kaab). May you be blessed by this knowledge. I swear by that Being in whose Hands and Control is my life, that this Ayat has one tongue and two lips. It is by the threshold of Allaah’s Arsh, Mentioning His purity”.

2). Hadhrat Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) states that there was a room of dates, which he used to guard. He suspected that some dates were going missing. Thus one night he stood vigil and saw an animal like a young person. Hadhrat Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) said: “I greeted and received a reply”. I asked,” Who are you? Man or Jinn?” It said, “Jinn. I said, Give me your hand”. He outstretched his hand. I noticed that the hand was like that of a dog. Its hair like the hair of the dog. I asked, “Are Jinns created like this?” It said, ” the Jinns know there are amongst them more stronger ones”. I enquired,” Why did you steal?”. He replied,” I have come to know that you love to give charity so I decided to take a part also.” Hadhrat Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) said: ” Who will save us from your evil? It said, Aayatul Kursi which is in Surah Baqarah. He who reads it at night will be saved from our evil till the morning and he who reads it in the morning will be saved from our evil till the night.”

In the morning Hadhrat Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) came to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and narrated the entire event to him. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said,”That rascal has stated the truth although he is a great liar.”

3). It is reported from Hadhrat Askee Baqri that Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) came to the abode of the Muhajreen when one person asked, “In the Qur’aan Kareem which is the most lofty Ayat?” Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) repeated “Ayatul Kursi”.

4). Hadhrat Hassan reports “Marfoonaan”,” I have been given Ayatul Kursi. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said,” Surah Fateha, Ayatul Kursi and the two Ayats of Al-Imraan (Shaheedal Allaah – 18th Ayat), and “Qul Allaahumma Malekal mulk til Bi Ghairi Hisaab (Ayat 26/7) are attached to the Arsh and say, “Oh our Rabb, You are sending us onto earth to disobedient ones!!! Allaah says ,” I have given you such status, whosoever from amongst my servants recites you after every Salaat, his resting place will be Jannat. And I will make his abode in Jannatul Quddoos and fulfill 70 needs of his daily needs, the least of which is forgiving him and saving him from all enemies of evils.

Ayatul Kursi is a quarter of the Quran Majeed:
5). Hadhrat Anas (Radiahallahu Anhu)narrates that Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) asked one of his companions: ” Oh, so and so are you married?” He replied: “No, I do not have enough wealth that I may marry.”, Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: “Do you know Surah Qul Huwallaahu Ahad?” The Sahaba replied: “I know”. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: “It is equal to a quarter of the Qur’aan. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) asked: “Do you not know Qul Yaa Ayyuhal Kaafiroon?” The Sababi replied “I know”. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said ” “It is equal to a quarter of the Qur’aan.” Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) asked, “Do you not know Surah “Iza Zul Zilzilaat ” ?” The Sahaabi replied, “I Know”. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: “It is a quarter of the Qur’aan”. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) asked: “Do you not know Surah Iza Jaa a Nasrullaahi Wal Fath” The Sahabi replied “I Know” Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said, it is a quarter of the Qur’aan. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) asked: “Do you know the Ayatul Kursi?” The Sahabi replied “I know”. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said, “It is equal to a quarter of the Qur’aan. Marry, Marry, Marry.”

Ayatul Kursi-Consistency:
6). Hadhrat Anas (Radiahallahu Anhu) said that Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said, “The one who recites Ayatul Kursi after every fard Salaat will be protected until the next Salaat and this is constantly done by a Nabi or a Siddiq or a martyr.

7). Hadhrat Hassan bin Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) says, “A person once asked: “Oh Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) what does that person receive who recites Ayatul Kursi after every Fard Salaat ? Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: ” That person remains under the protection of Allaah until the next Salaat.”
8) Hadhrat Anas (Radiahallahu Anhu) says: Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) asked; “Do you know which Ayat in the Qur’aan is most lofty? ” I said, Allaah and his Rasul know more.” Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) read Ayatul Kursi

9). Hadhrat Efai bin Abdullah Kallee said that one person asked.”Oh Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam), which Ayat in the Qur’aan is the most lofty one?” Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: ” Ayatul Kursi”. The person asked,”Which Ayat has those benefits which you desire for your Ummah, in the Qur’aan?” Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: “The last Ayat of Surah Baqarah, for it is from the treasures of Allaah from underneath the threshold of the Arsh. It encompasses all the good of this world and the Aakhiraat”.

10). Hadhrat Muhammad bin al Saumi bin Al Salsal bin Damasc narrates from his father, who in turn, narrates from his father that Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: ” Whoever recites Ayatul Kursi after every fard Salaat, there is only death between him and Jannat”, he will enter into Jannat immediately when he dies.

11). Hadhrat Ibne Anas (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: “The one who recites Ayatul Kursi after every Fard Salaat, Allaah Ta’aala will grant him a gratifying heart, actions of the truthful and reward like the Ambiyaa .Special mercies will descend upon him, and death is the only barrier from his entrance into Jannat. On dying he will enter Janaat”.

Ayatul Kursi is Blessing in The Food:
12). Hadhrat Ayesha (R.A.) narrates that one person came to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and said that there was absolutely no “Barakat” (blessings) in the things at home. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) replied, “Why are you neglectful of Ayatul Kursi.”
Whenever Aayatul Kursi is recited upon food, Allaah Ta’aala will increase the Barakat in that food or curry.
13). Hadhrat Ibn Masood (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that Allaah the Lofty did not create any thing in the skies or on earth, in Jannat or Jahannam, loftier than Ayatul Kursi.

14). Hadhrat Ibn Masood (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that no space in the sky, or on the earth is loftier than Ayatul Kursi.

Ayatul Kursi to make Satan flee for protection of wealth, property and home
15). Hadhrat Masood (R.A.) states that a person left his home and met a Jinn on the way. The jinn asked him, “Can you drop me down?, If you do so then I will teach you such an Ayat that if you recite it upon entering your home, Satan will not enter.” They wrestled and the person dropped the Jinn down. The jinn said:”Read Ayatul Kursi, because that person who recites it upon entering the home, Shaitaan flees like a donkey making a sound from its posterior runs away.

A person mentioned to Hadhrat Ibn Masood that the person (who dropped the Jinn) could only be Hadhrat Umar (Radiahallahu Anhu).

Hadhrat Abu Hurairah (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrates this (above) Hadith from Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam), with the addition that there is an Ayat in Surah Baqara, which is the chief ayat of the Qur’aan. Whosoever recites it in a house wherein Shaitaan is, he (Shaitaan) will leave.

16). Hadhrat Ibne Masood (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that a person requested Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) to teach him something that will benefit him. “Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said,”Read Ayatul Kursi, it will protect you, your children, home and even those houses surrounding your house.”

17). Hadhrat Ibn Umar (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrates that once Hadhrat Umar (Radiahallahu Anhu) came to the people and said, “Who amongst you can tell me which is the most lofty Ayat in the Qur’aan, which Ayat directs one most towards justice and fairness, which Ayat creates the most fear and which Ayat creates hope for mercy?” All remained silent. “Hadhrat Ibn Masood (Radiahallahu Anhu) said,”I heard Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) say from the Mimbar (pulpit) that Aayatul Kursi is the Loftiest in the Qur’aan, and the Ayat which encourages justice and fairness is ( Arabic P12) and the Ayat that creates the most fear is ( Arabic P12) of the Ayat that creates the most hope of mercy is ( Arabic P12).

18). Hadhrat Ibn Abbas (Radiahallahu Anhu) said that when Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) recited the last Ayat of Surah Baqarah and Ayatul Kursi then he laughed and said,” These have come from the treasures of Allaah.” and when he read (May Ya’mal Soo), then he said (Inna li llaah…) and chose humility and meekness.

19). It is reported that when ever Hadhrat Abdur Rahman Bin Auf (R.A.) entered his home, he used to recite Ayatul Kursi in its corners.

20). Hadhrat Hassan (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrates from Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) who said , ” Jibraeel came to me and informed me that a rebellious Jinn is plotting against you, so when you retire to your bed, then recite Ayatul Kursi. ”

21). Hadhrat Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that the chief of the Ayats of the Qur’aan Kareem is Ayatul Kursi.

22). Hadhrat Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) says “I have heard Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) say that person who recites Ayatul Kursi after every Salaat, only death prevents him from Jannat and who recites it whilst retiring to his sleeping place, Allaah will protect his house, his neighbours and even his surroundings.

23). Hadhrat Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that I cannot comprehend that a person who is a born Muslim, or intelligent or one who accepted Islaam in a rational (Arabic) state spending the night without reciting Ayatul Kursi. If you know how lofty this is (you will never discard it), it has been given to your Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) from under the treasures of the arsh. It has not been given to any Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) before your Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and I have never spent a night without reciting this Ayat thrice. I recite it in the last 2 Rakaats of Witr after Esha and also when I retire to my sleeping place

24). Hadhrat Auf bin Maalik (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that Hadhrat Abu Zar (Radiahallahu Anhu) who was sitting near Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) asked: “Oh Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) which is the most lofty Ayat Allaah revealed to you?” Allaah’s Rasul recited Ayatul Kursi.

25).Hadhrat Ma’aaz bin Jabal (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that he stored the dates for charity of Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) in a room for safe keeping. I sensed that there was a shortage daily therein. I complained to Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) about this. He said that this was the work of Satan and I must stay alert for him. Thus I sat in the barn that night. When some part of the night passed, Shaitaan came in the shape of an elephant. When he came near the door, he changed his shape and entered through one of the holes of the door, moved towards the dates and began eating. I dragged my cloth near him and said: “I testify that there is no one worthy of worship but Allaah and that Muhammad is his Servant and Rasul. Oh Allaah’s enemy you are usurping the dates of charity whereas the poor are more deserving of this than you. I will definitely apprehend you and take you to Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) who will humiliate you.” At this Shaitaan pledged that he will not do this act again.

In the morning I came to Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) who asked me about my prisoner. I stated that he had vowed not to steal again. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said that he (Satan) will come again so be alert. The next night also I sat alert. The same thing occurred and once again he (Satan) pledged not to steal. I left him. In the morning, I narrated the whole event to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) who said that he (Satan) will come again. On the third night the same thing happened once again. I apprehended him and this time I said,”Oh Allaah’s enemy, you have pledged twice and this is the third time (now I will not leave you). He (Satan) said,” I have children and have come from Nasabeen ( a place between Masool and Syria). If I receive anything less in status than this (dates), then I would not have come here. We left this city of yours when your Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) was sent together with two Ayats which removed us from here to Nasabeen. Shaitaan does not enter any home when these two Ayats have been recited in it”. He said this thrice. “If you leave me, I will show you these two Ayats”. I agreed. He said,” Ayatul Kursi and the last Ayat of Surah Baqarah (Amanas Rasul….).”Thus I let him go. In the morning I came to Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and told him what had transpired. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said, “That rascal has spoken the truth even though he is a liar.”

Hadhrat Ma’aaz (Rad.iahallahu Anhu) says after that he used to recite this and blow on the dates and there were no shortages in the room.

26). Hadhrat Abu Asaad Saeedee (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrates that he plucked the fruits from his orchard and kept them in a room. Jinnaat used used to come to this room and steal the fruit. This put them in difficulty and they complained to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) about it. He said,”This is (the work of) a Jinn. Oh Abu Asaad, listen attentively, when he (the Jinn) has entered, then say. “I take the name of Allaah” and say “accept Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) sayings”. The Jinn said, “Oh Abu Asaad, do not take me to Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam). I vow by Allaah that I will not set foot in your home, nor steal your fruit. Also I will show you such an Ayat that if you recite it on your house then you will think I have died. If you read it on your utensils then no one will be able open its lid.” I promised to leave him. He became happy and said. ” The Ayat, is Ayatul Kursi. This Sahabi came to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and related the entire event to him, upon which Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: ” He (Jinn) spoke the truth although he is (normally)a liar.”

27). Hadhrat Abu Amama Sadi bin Ijlaan (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said,” Whosoever recites Ayatul Kursi after every fard Salaat, the only thing preventing his entry into Janaat is death.

Ayatul Kursi is Isme Azam:
28). Hadhrat Abu Amama (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) stated, that the Isme Azam (blessed Name of Allaah Jalle Jalaalahu) , through which the invoker’s desire is definitely fulfilled appears in 3 Surahs of the Qur’aan. Surah Baqarah, Al-Imraan and Ta Haa. Hadhrat Abu Amama (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that he searched for it and found it in Ayatul Kursi of Surah Baqarah, and “La illaha illah Huwal haya …..” in Al-Imraan and “Wa Anatil wujuhu…..” in Surah Ta Haa.

29). Hadhrat Ibn Abbas (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) was staying in a room at Hadhrat Abu Ayoob (Radiahallahu Anhu). Food provisions were kept in a small basket. A cat used to enter from the air vent and take the food away. Hadhrat Abu Ayoob (Radiahallahu Anhu) complained to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) who said that it was a Jinn. Thus when he comes, tell him that Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said that he should not come back. The Jinn said, “Oh, Abu Ayoob leave me this time, by Allaah I will definitely never return. Thus Abu Ayoob left him and came to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and narrated the event. This event occurred twice. On the third occasion the Jinn said, “Shall I reveal to you such words, which when recited at night will prevent Shaitaan from coming near your house that night and day and the next day. Abu Ayoob said, “Sure”. The Jinn said,”Recite Ayatul Kursi”. This Sahabi came and related this event to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam), who said that he (the Jinn), has spoken the truth although he is (normally) a liar.

30).Hadhrat Abu Ayoob (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrates that he was in the front room of his home. Jinnaat used to take goods from there. He complained about this to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) who said:”When you see him then take the name of Allaah and tell him to accept the call of Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam). When the Jinn came, Abu Ayoob (Radiahallahu Anhu) told him this, and the Jinn pledged not to come again. Abu Ayoob left him. Abu Ayoob came to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) who asked him how was his thief. Abu Ayoob replied, “I caught him but left him after he pledged that he will not return”. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) stated that he (the Jinn) will definitely return. Abu Ayoob apprehended the Jinn twice or thrice and each time he released him on the pledge of not returning. Abu Ayoob came to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) who asked him about his prisoner. Abu Ayoob replied,” I caught him but released him on the pledge that he will not return. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) stated that he(the Jinn) will surely return. Abu Ayoob thereafter apprehended the Jinn who said ,”If you leave me, I will show such a thing, that when read, the Shaitaan will not come near you. That is Ayatul Kursi”. Abu Ayoob narrated this entire event to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) who said,”The Jinn has spoken the truth although he is (normally) a great liar.

In the tradition of Tabrani it is stated “My dates were kept in a room.”. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said,”Tomorrow you will find a cat therein then it will become a wolf.” At the end of the tradition it is stated, “Satan said that whenever he hears it ( Ayatul Kursi) he will runaway. Via another chain of narrations it is stated in Tabrani. “I should have difficulty in my back,” and at the end of the tradition it is recorded “no Jinn or thief will come near”.

31). Hadhrat Abu Zar (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that he asked Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) which was the most (Arabic) (lofty, respectable) Ayat revealed to you? Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) replied, “Ayatul Kursi”.
Aid at the time difficulty and Angels Stipulated it for Protection

32). Hadhrat Abu Qatada (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrates that Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said.”Whoever reads Ayatul Kursi and the last Ayat of Surah Baqarah when in difficulty, then Allaah listens to that plea.”

Hadhrat Qatadah (Radiahallahu Anhu) says,”Whoever recites Ayatul Kursi on his sleeping bed, Allaah Ta’aala nominates 2 angels to protect him until morning.

Ayatul Kursi is A grateful heart, A Remembering Tongue

33). Hadhrat Abu Musa Al Ashari (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrates that Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said that Allaah Ta’aala sent “Wahy”-(divine revelation) to Hadhrat Musa bin Imraan (Radiahallahu Anhu) to read Ayatul Kursi after every Fard Salaat and that whosoever recites Ayatul Kursi every Fard Salaat, will be granted the heart of the grateful, the tongue of those who remember, the rewards like the Ambiyaa and his actions will become like those of the Siddiques and on this practise the Nabi or Siddique is regular whose heart I have tested for Imaan and who has been chosen to be martyred in My Way.

34).Hadhrat Abu Amama (Radiahallahu Anhu) says he asked Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam),”Which is the most respectable, lofty Ayat, which has descended upon you”. He said, “Ayatul Kursi”.

Ayatul Kursi is An Easy Child-Birth
35). Hadhrat Fatima Zahra (Radiahallahu Anha) narrates,”When the time approached for her delivery, then Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) ordered Hadhrat Umme Salama (Radiahallahu Anha) and Hadhrat Zainab (Radiahallahu Anha) to go to Fatima and recite Ayatul Kursi and “Inna Rabba Kumullaah” (the whole Ayat) and the last two Quls and blow on her.

Ayatul Kursi is Best Means of Protection
36). Hadhrat Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrates,”I cannot understand how a person, who is a Muslim, and owner of reason (intellect) can spend the night without reading Ayatul Kursi. If you knew the benefits of it, then you will never discard it under any condition”. Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) stated ,”I have been given Aayatul Kursi from the treasures under the Arsh of Allaah and it was not given to anyone before me”.
Hadhrat Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) says, “From the time I have heard this, I have never passed a night without reading it”.

37). Hadhrat Abu Huraira (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) made me the guardian of the Zakaat of Ramadaan. One thief began to steal from it. I caught him and told him that I am definitely going to take him to Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam). He said,”Leave me, I am destitute and have a family”. I (Abu Huraira) left him. In the morning Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) asked , “What did your prisoner do last night.?” I (Abu Huraira) said, He spoke of his great need and family for which I felt pity on him and left him.” Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said,”He has spoken a lie and will definitely come again.” I (Abu harraira) understood that the (the thief) will definitely come again because Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said so. Thus I kept watch at that same barn. He (the thief) came and began stealing in handfuls. I caught him and threatened to take him to Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam). The thief pleaded with me to leave him as he was needy and had a family and that he will not repeat this. I (Abu Huraiah) felt pity and left him. In the morning Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) asked him the same question as before and his answer was the same. When the same thing happened for the third time, Abu Hurairah said to the thief,”This is the third time. Each time you say that you will not steal again and each time you steal again.” The thief said,”Leave me, and I will teach you such words through which Allaah will benefit you.”. I (Abu Huraira) inquired about those words and the thief said,”When you go to your sleeping place, then recite Ayatul Kursi completely. Allaah will stipulate a guardian for you and Shaitaan will not come near you until the morning. I released him. In the morning Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) asked,”What did your thief do last night?” Abu Hurairah narrated what had transpired. The Sahabah were most enthusiastic to gain virtues. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said,”He has spoken the truth although he is a liar. Oh Abu Huraira, do you know with whom you were talking to for the past three nights.” I said “No”. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said that it was Satan.

It is mentioned in Kitaabul Dalaalil from Hadhrat Buraidah (Radiahallahu Anhu) that he had wheat (crops). He said, “I sensed that there was a shortage in it. While sitting quietly in the night I saw a female Jinn sitting on the crops . I caught hold of her and said that I will not let her go until I had taken her to Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam). She said that she had a family and swore on oath that she will not do so again. I released her. I came to Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and informed him about this. He said that she was a liar. When the same thing happened on the second night, she (the female jinn) asked me to release her. She said,”I will, in exchange teach you such a duaa that from amongst us none will ever come near your crops. When you retire to your sleeping place then read and blow Ayatul Kursi on your goods. I left her. When I informed Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) about this he said that she had spoken the truth although she was a liar.

38). Hadhrat Abu Huraia (Radiahallahu Anhu) said that Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) stated that whosoever reads “Haa meem al Mu’minoon” upto “al maseer” and Ayatul Kursi in the morning, will be protected until the evening and whoever reads both of these in the night will be protected until the morning.

39). Hadhrat Ibne Abbass (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrated that the Bani Israeel asked Musa(A.S.), “Does your Rabb sleep?” Musa(A.S.) said, “Fear Allaah”. Allaah ordered,” Oh Musa, your nation has asked you whether your Rabb sleeps? Take two glasses in your hand and stand with it for the whole night.” Hadhrat Musa (A.S) did as he was ordered. When on third of the night passed, he fell on his knees but stood up immediately. During the latter part of the night, sleep overcame him and the glasses fell and broke. Allaah Jala Shanahu said, “Oh Musa, if I sleep then the sky will fall on the earth and destroy it just as the two glasses fell from your hands and broke. ” Then Allaah Ta’aala revealed unto Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) Ayatul Kursi.

40). Fulfilling 70 needs and the Ayat which gives Jannat.
Hadhrat Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrates that Surah Fatiha, Ayatul Kursi and two Ayats of Al Imraan (Shahidallaahu Anahu la…… Azzizul Hakeem) and (Qul Allahumma…bi Ghairi Hisaab) are linked to the arch of Allaah and between them and Allaah there are no veils. These Ayats said to Allaah “You are sending us unto earth and amongst those who become disobedient.” Allaah said,”By my Being, I say, that whoever of my servants reads you (addressing the Ayats) after every fard Salaat, I will make his resting place Jannat, irrespective of what action he may be involved in and will make him stay in “Blessed Peace” and view him with my hidden eye daily seventy times and fulfil seventy of his needs daily, amongst which the smallest is forgiveness and I will protect him from every enemy and assist him against the enemies”.

Hadhrat Abu Amama (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that there are eight bearers of the arsh, who read in a welcoming melodious voice. Four of them repeat the words:
Oh Allaah You are pure, and all praise is for You, although All Knowing, You are still affectionate and off-bearing.

And four of them read:

Oh Allaah You are Pure and all praises are for You. Although you have the Power (and Might), you do not apprehend.

AYAT AL KURSI: THE THRONE, THE HOLY QUR’AN 2:225

“There is no god but Allah; he is the Living, the Sustainer of all things. He cannot be touched by drowsiness or sleep. To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and the earth.

Who are you to recommend to him without his permission? He knows everything that is in front of or behind the eyes. They cannot encompass anything beyond His knowledge, but as much as He wills.

His throne encompasses the heavens and the earth. And it is not difficult for him to contain them. He is the Highest, the Greatest.”

Importance of Ayatul Kursi

This Hadith can make us easily understand the importance of Ayatul Kursi.

Prophet Muhammad SAW said,’ if a person recites Ayatul Kursi after every obligatory prayer, He has the distance of death between him and the paradise.’ That is why it is of high importance to reading Ayatul Kursi.

Ayatul Kursi is a verse of great importance. These verses are in the second Surah of the Quran. Ayatul Kursi is one of the greatest Surah, which is learned and memorized more than any Surah.

The significance of Ayatul Kursi has been described in many Ahadith of the Holy Prophet SAW. We should learn it to win the favour and blessing of Allah. There are different rewards for Ayatul Kursi.

Why is Ayatul Kursi important?

There are many reasons why ayat ul kursi is so essential:

• Shows how the power of Allah is spread throughout the heavens and the earth
• It protects from many evils
• Ayatul kursi acts as a cure for illnesses and diseases
• It acts as a guardian for those in fear
• The most potent verse tells us why we should place our trust in Allah

Here’s what Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) says about Ayatul Kursi

Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrates, “I cannot understand how a person, who is a Muslim, and owner of reason (intellect) can spend the night without reading Ayatul Kursi. If you knew the benefits of it, then you will never discard it under any condition”. Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) stated,” I have been given Aayatul Kursi from the treasures under the Arsh of Allaah, and it was not given to anyone before me”.

Ibne Abbass (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrated that the Bani Israeel asked Musa(A.S.), “Does your Rabb sleep?” Musa(A.S.) said, “Fear Allaah”. Allaah ordered,” Oh Musa, your nation has asked you whether your Rabb sleeps? Take two glasses in your hand and stand with it for the whole night.” Hadhrat Musa (A.S) did as he was ordered. When a third of the night passed, he fell on his knees but stood up immediately.

During the latter part of the night, sleep overcame him, and the glasses fell and broke. Allaah Jala Shanahan said, “Oh Musa, if I sleep, then the sky will fall on the earth and destroy it just as the two glasses fell from your hands and broke.” Then Allaah Ta’aala revealed unto Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) Ayatul Kursi.

Fatima Zahra (Radiahallahu Anha) narrates,” When the time approached for her delivery, then Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) ordered Hadhrat Umme Salama (Radiahallahu Anha) and Hadhrat Zainab (Radiahallahu Anha) to go to Fatima and recite Ayatul Kursi and “Inna Rabba Kumullaah” (the whole Ayat) and the last two Quls and blow on her.

Hadith About Ayatul Kursi

Narrated Abu Huraira RA

Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) ordered me to guard the Zakat revenue of Ramadan. Then somebody came to me and started stealing from the foodstuff. I caught him and said, “I will take you to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)!” Then Abu Huraira described the whole narration and said: That person said (to me), “(Please don’t take me to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and I will tell you a few words by which Allah will benefit you.) When you go to your bed, recite Ayat-al-Kursi, (2.255) for then there will be a guard from Allah who will protect you all night long, and Satan will not be able to come near you till dawn.” (When the Prophet (ﷺ) heard the story) he said (to me), “He (who came to you at night) told you the truth although he is a liar; and it was Satan.

[Sahih Bukhari]

“Do not turn your homes into graveyards; surely the Devil flees from the house in which Surat Al-Baqarah is read,” Muslim 1/539. The invocations also drive out the Devil for morning and evening. Also with those that are said before sleeping and upon waking up, those for entering and leaving the house, including those for entering and leaving the mosque, and by many other authentic invocations taught to us by the Prophet (ﷺ) such as the reading of ‘Ayatul-Kursi, (Al-Baqarah 2:255), and the last two ‘Ayat of Surat Al-Baqarah before going to sleep.

Whoever says: “There is none worthy of worship, but Allah alone, Who has no partner, He is the dominion, and He is the praise, and He can do all things,” one hundred times, it will be a protection for him from the Devil throughout the day.’

Hazrat Ali (R.A) says that the chief of the Ayats of the Quran Kareem is Ayatul Kursi.

Hazrat Ibne Masood (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that a person requested Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) to teach him something that will benefit him. “Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) said,” Recite Ayatul Kursi; it will protect you, your children, home and even those houses surrounding your house.”

Abu Umamah Al-Bahili (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “The one who recites it after each of the obligatory prayers, then death will be the only thing preventing him from entering Paradise.” [Ibn Sunni, Ibn Hibban]

Abu Hurairah (R.A) Narrated: In Surah Al-Baqarah, there is an ayah, which is the best of all the ayahs of the Quran. It is never recited in a house, but Satan leaves Ayatul Kursi.

Everything has its pinnacle, and the standard of the Quran is Surah al-Baqarah. In it, there is an ayah, which is the greatest in the Quran; Ayat-ul-Kursi. [Tirmidhi]

Prophet (ﷺ) said, “By reciting it (Ayat al-Kursi), there will be a guardian appointed over you from Allah who will protect you during the night, and Satan will not be able to come near you until morning”. [Al-Bukhari]

Abu Huraira reported that, “Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) ordered me to guard the Zakat revenue of Ramadan. Then somebody came to me and started stealing the foodstuff. I caught him and said, “I will take you to Allah Apostle! “That person said (to Abu Huraira), “Please don’t take me to Allah’s Apostle, and I will tell you a few words by which Allah will benefit you. When you go to your bed, recite Ayatul Kursi, for then there will be a guard from Allah who will protect you all night long, and Satan will not be able to come near you till dawn.” When the Prophet heard the story, he said (to me), “He (who came to you at night) told you the truth although he is a liar, and it was Satan.” [Sahih Al-Bukhari]

The devil runs away from Ayatul Kursi

Hazrat ibn Masood RA said’ that a person left on a journey, one his way he met with a Jin. Jin asked him if he wrestled with me and beat him. He will teach him something due to which Satan will not come to him home and run away. The person and Jin wrestled with each other. Luckily, the person put him down.

According to the promise, Jin told him that recite Ayatul Kursi, Shayteeen will never come to your house, and the rest will run away from your home by producing the sound of the donkey.

Hazrat Ali RA narrated that once there was a room full of dates. He was appointed to guard the room. One day he felt that some dates were missing. He became worried about where these dates were going. From next, he stood full vigilant. Upon night, he saw that a Jin came to the room in the form of a boy.

Hazrat Ali RA greeted him and asked the reason why he came here. He RA inspected his hand, which were like the paws of the dog. Hazrat Ali RA asked him to have you created like that. He replied. After a lot of discussions, Hazrat Ali RA asked who would save us from your evil action.

Jin replied Ayatul Kursi could save you from our evil actions. Later, Hazrat Ali RA approached Prophet Muhammad SAW and told him about the incident that happened. Holy Messenger replied that he was saying right. No doubt, he was a liar. Ayatul Kursi can save us from the evil action of Shaiteen.

Holy Prophet SAW said,’ who recites the first four verses of Surah Al-Baqrah, then repeats the Ayatul Kursi then he recites the 3 Ayah of Surah Al-Baqrah again, Allah will keep save himself from any tension regarding wealth or himself, Satan will run away from him, and he will not forget the Holy Quran.

Conclusion

Tafsir Ayatul Kursi (Al Maududi)

(2:255) Allah: the Everlasting, the Sustainer of the whole Universe; there is no god but He. *278 He does neither slumber nor sleep. *279 Whatsoever is in the heavens and in the earth is His. *280 Who is there that can intercede with Him except by His own permission.? *281 He knows what is before the people and also what is hidden from them. And they cannot comprehend anything of His knowledge save whatever He Himself pleases to reveal. *282 His Kingdom *283 spreads over the heavens and the earth and the guarding of these does not weary Him. He alone is the Supreme and the Exalted. *284

*278). Irrespective of the number of gods or objects of worship set up by ignorant people, the fact remains that godhead in its entirety, belong’s exclusively to the Eternal Being, Who is indebted to no one for His existence. In fact, He is not only self-existent, but upon Him rests the entire order of the universe. He alone wields all sovereign authority over His dominion. None shares either His attributes or His power and might, and no one has the same claims against the creatures as He. Hence, if anywhere in the heavens or the earth someone sets up anything or anybody as an object of worship and service (ilah) either instead of or in addition to the One True God this amounts to declaring war on reality. 

*279). This is a refutation of the ideas of those who, in formulating their concepts of God, are inclined to consider God analogous to their own imperfect selves and hence ascribe to God the weaknesses characteristic of human beings. An instance at hand is the famous Biblical statement that God created the heavens and the earth in six days and on the seventh day He rested (see Genesis, chapters 1 and 2). 

*280). To God belongs the heavens and the earth and everything therein. There is no one who shares anything with God in governance either of the heavens or of the earth. Any conceivable being other than God would necessarily be a part of the universe and thus belong to, and be a subject of, God rather than His partner and equal. 

*281).This is a refutation of the ideas of those polytheists who consider either saints, angels or other beings to be so influential with God that if they were adamant in demanding something of Him, their demand would prevail. They are being told that, far from anyone having the power to impose his will on God, none – not even the greatest Prophets and the most highly esteemed angels – will dare utter one word in the majestic court of the Lord unless they are expressly permitted to do so. 

*282). Here another blow is struck against polytheism. On the basis of the concept of God’s unlimited sovereignty and omnipotence it was stressed, in the foregoing verses, that no one shares independently in God’s governance of the universe, and no one is so powerful with God that his intercession would decisisely influence His judgement. The same point is stressed here but in a different manner. It is pointed out that no one possesses the knowledge that would enable him to comprehend the order of the universe and the considerations underlying it, so no one can legitimately interfere in its governance. The knowledge of human beings, of jinn, of angels and of all other creatures is limited and imperfect. No one’s knowledge embraces all the facts of the universe. If someone did have the right to interfere even in only a part of the universe, and if his suggestions were of necessity to be put into eflect, the entire order of the universe would be disrupted. Creatures are incapable of understanding what is best for them, and do not have the capacity to know how best the universe should be governed. It is God alone Who knows everything. 

*283). The Arabic term kursi signifies sovereignty, dominion and authority. 

(The word Kursi has been variously interpreted by Muslim scholars. The literal meaning is obvious; it signifies that which one sits on. Scholars have differed, however, as to whether the word has been used in the Qur’an literally or figuratively. They have also disagreed whether the Kursi and ‘Arsh Which occur in the Qur’an have one and the same meaning or are different. The main opinions expressed by the scholars are the following: (i) that Kursi signifies God’s knowledge, a view attributed to Ibn ‘Abbas; (ii) that it is identical with ‘Arsh (Throne), a view attributed to Hasan al-Basri; (iii) that it signifies God’s power (iv ) in opposition to such views a large number of scholars insist that Kursi should be considered a reality rather than be understood figuratively. In addition to many earlier scholars, this was vigorously championed by Ibn Taymiyah. It should be remembered, however, that Ibn Taymiyah and others who hold this opinion, side by side with affirming that Kursi is a reality, also emphasize that man has no knowledge about the nature and modality of Kursi and that it ought to be treated as something unique, being related to God Who is unique both in His essence and attributes. (See the commentaries of Alusi. Tabari, Qurtubi, Ibn Kathir and Shawkani on this verse. See also Ibn Taymiyah, Majmu al-Fatawa 1bn Taymiyah, vol. 5, pp. 55-8 and vol. 6, pp. 584-5. It is interesting to note that Sayyid Qutb, (martyred 1386 A.H/966 C.E.), a contemporary of Mawdudi and one of the most influential Islamic thinkers of our time, has interpreted the verse exactly, as Mawdudi did – Ed.) 

*284). This verse is generally known as the ‘Verse of the Throne’ and it provides in one piece a knowledge of God without parallel. 

The question that arises here is: What is the occasion for describing the Lord of the Universe and His attributes? In order to appreciate this one should rehearse the discourse beginning with verse 243 and continuing up to this point. In this discourse the believers were urged to strive with their lives and belongings to establish the true faith and were warned to get rid of the weaknesses which had characterized the conduct of the Israelites. A fundamental fact about war – that victory and success do not depend upon superiority in either numbers or weapons – was then indicated. They depend rather on faith, fortitude, discipline and firm resolution. Thereafter the Divine wisdom underlying fighting was disclosed, namely that God removes one set of people by means of another in order to maintain the good administration of the world. For were one group’s dominance to be assured in perpetuity, the lives of all other human beings mould become miserable. 

This was followed by the clarification of a misunderstanding which often arises in the minds of ignorant people. This misunderstanding arose from the false assumption that God had sent His Prophets so that all diversity and disagreement might come to an end. The people who accepted this premise, however, saw considerable diversity and disagreement, and were aware that falsehood existed side by side with Truth. They were agitated by the thought that this state of affairs might suggest helplessness on God’s part, that He had failed to stamp out the evils He wanted to. In reply to this it was pointed out that it was not God’s will to compel all human beings to follow one and the same way. Had it been so, man could not have deviated from the course set for him by God. This observation was followed by a passing reference to the subject with which the discourse opened. Finally, the point is made that no matter how many divergent beliefs, viewpoints, ways of life and conduct exist in actual life, the reality underlying the order of the universe is the one stated in this verse, and it remains unaffected by the misconceptions of people. On the other hand, however, it is not God’s purpose to compel people to accept it. Whoever accepts it will find it to his own benefit; whoever rejects it, will find the result harmful.

Narrated Abu Huraira: Prophet Muhammad salallahu alaihi wasallam ordered me to guard the Zakat revenue of Ramadan. Then somebody came to me and started stealing of the foodstuff. I caught him and said, “I will take you to Allah’s Apostle!” Then Abu Huraira described the whole narration and said: That person said (to me), “Please don’t take me to Allah’s Apostle and I will tell you a few words by which Allah will benefit you. When you go to your bed, recite Ayatul Kursi, (2.255) for then there will be a guard from Allah who will protect you all night long, and Satan will not be able to come near you till dawn.” When the Prophet heard the story he said (to me), “He (who came to you at night) told you the truth although he is a liar; and it was Satan.” [Sahih Al-Bukhari – Book 61 Hadith 530]

Narrated by Abu Huraira: Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) said, “If anyone recites in the morning Ha-Mim al-Mu’min to ‘to Him is the final goal, and the Throne Verse, he will be guarded by them till the evening, and if anyone recites them in the evening he will be guarded by them till the morning.” [Al-Tirmidhi – Hadith 2144]
