Ayatul Kursi

Ayatul Kursi

Ayatul Kursi is the 255th verse of the second Surah Al-Baqarah of the Holy Quran. The Prophet (peace be upon him) described this verse as the best verse of the Qur'an. Abu Jarr Jundub ibn Janadah (ra) asked the Prophet (saw), ‘O Messenger of Allah! Which of the most dignified verses has been revealed to you? In reply he said, Ayatul Kursi. '(Nasai). By reciting this holy verse regularly, Allah the Almighty makes it easy for His servants to enter Paradise. Narrated from Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him), the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "Whoever recites the Ayatul Kursi after the obligatory prayers, there will be no obstacle for him to enter Paradise except death." (Nasai)

The important verse number 255 of Surah Baqara which is known as Ayatul Kursi is as follows:

“Allahu la ila-ha illahu wal hayyul qayyum, la ta’khujuhu sinatoo wala naum. Lahu ma-fissama-wa-ti wama fil ardb. Man jallaji yashfa’u indahu illa bijnihi. Ya'lamu ma baina aidihim wama khalfahum. Wala yuhituna bisaiim min ilmihi illa bima-shaa. Wasi'a kursiyuhussama-wati wal ardb. Wala Yauduhu Hifzuhuma, Wa Huwal Aliyul Azim.“

Ayatul kursi translation

Allah! There is no god but Him, the living, and the self-sufficient. No drowsiness nor sleep can consume him. To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and the earth. Who can recommend it before him without permission? He knows what (appears to His creation) before or after them or behind them. They will not be able to encircle anything of His knowledge except as He wills. His throne is spread over the heavens and the earth, and He does not feel any fatigue in protecting and preserving them. Because He is the Highest in glory.

i. Narrated Abu Umama: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Whoever recites the Ayatul Kursi at the end of every obligatory prayer, nothing will prevent him from entering Paradise except death. (Nasai Kubra 9928, Tabarani 7532, Sahihul Jame 6464)

ii. Hazrat Ali (R) narrated from Abu Umama said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (SAW) say: Whoever recites Ayatul Kursi regularly after every obligatory prayer, only death is an obstacle for him to enter Paradise. Whoever recites this verse while lying in bed, Allah will keep peace in his house, in the house of his neighbor, and in all the houses around him. (Sunan Baihaqi)

iii. Narrated Ubayy Ibn Ka'b: He said: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: O Abul Munzir! Which verse of the Book of Allah is most honorable to you? I said, "Allah and His Messenger know best." He said again, O Abul Munzir! Which verse of the Book of Allah is most honorable to you? I said, "Allahu la ilaha illa huwal haiyul qayyum" (Ayatul Kursi). Then he hit me on the chest (lightly) and said: O Abul Munzir! May your knowledge be pleasing? (Sunan Abu Dawood 1460)

iv. An angel is on guard to guard him until morning when he reads. So that the devil may not come near him. (Bukhari) Narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: There is an excellent verse in Surah Al-Baqarah, Satan flees from the room where Ayatul Kursi will be recited. (Mustadrake Hakim: 2103)

v. Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: There is a verse in Surah Al-Baqara which is the leader of all other verses of the Qur'an. Satan leaves the house where the verse is recited. (Tafsir Ma Areful Quran)

vi. Narrated Ubayy bin Ka'b: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: By Allah! In whose hand is our soul Ayatul Kursi has a tongue and two lips, it praises Allah at the feet of the throne. (Musnad Ahmad)

vii. Narrated from Abu Hurairah. He said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, appointed me to guard the zakat of Ramadan." A man came and filled his hands and started taking food items. I grabbed him and said, by God! I will present you to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. He said, let me go. I am very destitute, I have family responsibilities in my custody and my needs are acute. Then "I gave up".

When morning came, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) asked me, 'O Abu Hurairah, what did you do your prisoner of the night?' I said, O Messenger of Allah! I feel sorry for her because of her severe lack and family, so I let her go. He said, be careful! He lied to you and he will come again. I understand that he will come again because of the saying of Allah's Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). So I waited for him. He came and began to take food items full of his hands. I grabbed him and said, "I will take you to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace." He said, let me go. Because I am very poor and I have family responsibilities, I will not come again.

I felt sorry for him and let him go. In the morning, the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, asked me, O Abu Hurairah! What did your prisoner do? I said, O Messenger of Allah! I feel sorry for him because he is in dire need and speaks about her family. So I let him go. He said, "Beware, he has lied to you and he will come again." So I waited for her for the third time. He filled the original and Anjali again and started taking food items. I grabbed him and said, 'I will take you to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace.' This is the last time three times. You say every time, don't come again but come again. He said, let me go. I'll teach you a few things. With which Allah will benefit you. I said, what is it? He said, "When you go to bed at night, Ayatul Kursi (Allahu La ilaha illa Huwal Hayyul Qayyum) will be recited till the end of the verse." Then a guardian will be appointed for you from Allah, and Satan will not come to you till dawn. So I let him go. At dawn, Allah's Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said to me, "What did your prisoner do last night?" I said, O Messenger of Allah! He told me that he would teach me a few words by which Allah would benefit me. So I let him go. He said to me, what are these sentences? I said, he told me that when you go to bed, Ayatul Kursi (Allahu la ilaha illa Huwal Hayyul Qayyum) will be recited from the beginning to the end of the verse and he said to me, there will be a guardian for you from Allah and no devil will come to you till dawn. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "Yes, he has told you the truth." But beware, he is a liar. O Abu Hurairah! Do you know who you talked to for three nights? Abu Hurairah said, "No." He (Prophet) said he was the devil. (Sahih Bukhari No. 2311)
