at the end of Ramadan before the festival of Eid).
During the night an intruder entered and tried to steal from the
charity. I caught hold of him and said, ‘I will take you to the
Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him,‘ but he pleaded
saying, ‘I am in need, I have a large family and we are in great
need.’ So I let him go. The next morning the Messenger of Allah,
praise and peace be upon him, asked me, ‘Abu Hurairah, what did
your captive do last night?’ I answered, ‘O Messenger of Allah,
praise and peace be upon him, he pleaded telling me of the great
need of himself and his family, so I took pity on him and let him go.’
The Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said, ‘He
lied to you; he will return.’ Therefore I knew that he would return as
the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, had said so
I kept watch for him.
The thief returned again and started to steal from the charity once
more. I said to him, ‘I shall take you to the Messenger of Allah,
5
praise and peace be upon him.’ But again he pleaded, ‘I am in need,
I have a large family and we are in great need, let me go and I will
not return.’ So again I took pity on him and let him go. The next
morning the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him,
said to me, ‘Abu Hurairah, what happened with your captive last
night?’ I replied, ‘O Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon
him, he pleaded with me and told me of the great need of himself
and his family, so I took pity on him and let him go.’ The Messenger
of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said, ‘He lied to you; he will
return.’ So I watched for him a third time.
Once again he returned and tried to steal from the charity. I caught
him and said, ‘I shall take you to the Messenger of Allah, praise and
peace be upon him, this is the third and final time. You promised
you would not return yet you came back!’ He pleaded once more
saying, ‘Let me go, and I will tell you some words which will be
beneficial for you before Allah.’ I asked him, ‘What are they?’ He
answered, ‘When you go to bed recite the verse of the Throne
(Chapter 2. 255) because it will be your guardian with Allah, and
satan is unable to approach you until the morning.’ So I let him go.
The next morning the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be
upon him, asked me, ‘What did you do with your captive last night?’
I answered, ‘O Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him,
he said he would tell me some words which would be beneficial to
me before Allah, so I let him go.’ He asked, ‘What are those words?’
I answered, ‘He told me that when I go to bed, to recite the verse of
the Throne from beginning to the end. He told me that this would be
my guardian with Allah, and that satan would be unable to approach
me until the morning.’ The Messenger of Allah said, ‘This time he
told you the truth, but he is a liar. Abu Hurairah, do you know with
whom you spoke during these three nights?’ I answered, ‘No.’ The
Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, answered, ‘It
was satan.’”

praise and peace be upon him, said this.

angel descended to the earth for the first time.’ He greeted the
Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, and said,
‘Receive the glad tidings that two lights have been bestowed upon
you which have not been bestowed upon any Prophet before you.
The first is Sura Al Fatihah (The Opener, Chapter 1) and the other is
the last verses of Sura Al-Baqarah (The Cow :Chapter 2). Even if

Bakr said to Omar ‘Come, let us go and visit Umm Aiman because
the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, used to visit her.’ When
they arrived she started weeping, so they asked: ‘Why are you
crying? Don't you know that which Allah has is better for the
Prophet, praise and peace be upon him?’ She answered: ‘Indeed I
know that which Allah has is better for the Prophet, praise and
peace be upon him, I cry because the Revelation has stopped
coming down from the heaven.’ This moved the two and they began
to cry with her.”

|H 454

became severe he was asked about the prayer so he said: ‘Tell Abu
7

her, overheard this and said: ‘Abu Bakr is very tender-hearted, he is
sure to be overcome when he recites the Koran.’ The Prophet,

prayer.’”

WHEN THE VICTORY OF ALLAH AND THE OPENING COMES
|H 114
“Omar used to call ibn Abbas to his council along with the elders
who had fought in the Battle of Badr. It seems some of them
resented this and asked: "Why does he include him among us, our
sons are his age." Omar told them: "He belongs to the source of
your knowledge." One day he called me (ibn Abbas) to his council
along with them and I felt that he had called me in order to expound
this to them. He asked them: "What is the meaning of:
8
'When the victory of Allah and the opening comes.'" 110:1 Koran.
Some of them said:
‘In this verse we have been commanded to praise Allah and
supplicate for His forgiveness when He helps and gives us victory.’
Others remained quiet and said nothing. Then Omar asked me: ‘Do
you say the same, ibn Abbas?’ I replied: ‘No.’ ‘Then what do you
say?’ He asked. I replied: ‘When Allah said: When the victory of
Allah and the opening comes and you see people embracing the
Religion of Allah in throngs, exalt with the praise of your Lord and
ask forgiveness from Him. For indeed, He is the Acceptor.' (110
Koran) It was an indication of the approach of death to the Prophet
praise and peace be upon him‘. Omar said: ‘No one knows better
than that you have said.’"
Bukhari with a chain up to ibn Abbas who related this.
THE SIGN
|H 115
“After the Revelation of: 'When the victory of Allah and the opening
comes.' The Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, recited in
every prayer: ‘Exalted are You, our Lord, and all the praise is Yours.
Forgive me, O Allah.’ The Prophet, praise and peace be upon him,
repeatedly recited in his bowing and prostration: ‘Exalted are You, O
Allah, our Lord, and all praise is due to You. Forgive me, O Allah.’
This was recited in accordance with the Koran. "Before his death the
Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, often recited: ‘Exalted are
You and all praise is due to You, I seek Your forgiveness and turn to
You.’
I (Lady Ayesha, may Allah be pleased with her) asked him: ‘O
Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, what are these
new words I hear you repeating?’ He replied: ‘A sign has been
appointed for me concerning my nation and when I see that sign I
should say it.’ 'When the victory of Allah and the opening comes,
and you see people embracing the Religion of Allah in multitudes,
exalt with the praise of your Lord and ask forgiveness from Him. For
indeed, He is the Turner (for the penitent).' Ch.110"
"The Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, often recited: ‘Exalted
is Allah and His is all the praise. I seek the forgiveness of Allah and
turn to Him.’ I said to him: ‘O Messenger of Allah, praise and peace
be upon him, I have often heard you recite: ‘Exalted is Allah and His
is all praise; I seek the forgiveness of Allah and turn to Him.’ He
said: ‘My Lord told me that soon I would see a sign concerning my
nation and that when I saw it I should exalt and praise Him, and ask
His forgiveness and turn to Him. Now I have seen that sign.’ The
victory and the opening of Allah was the opening of Mecca, and the
sign was seeing people embrace the religion of Allah in large
numbers."
9
The order is: 'Exalt with the praise of your Lord and ask forgiveness
from Him. For indeed, He is the Acceptor.'"
Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to the Mother of Believers, Lady Ayesha, may
Allah be pleased with her, who related this.

which is aromatic and delicious; and the likeness of a believer who
does not recite the Koran is that of a date which has no aroma but is
sweet.
The likeness of a hypocrite who recites the Koran is that of a
fragrant plant but is bitter to the taste; and the likeness of a

that has no aroma and tastes bitter.”

is a letter.’"

RECITATION OF THE PROPHETS |H 1017 “Allah listens more to the recitation of a Prophet, who, having been given a good voice, recites the Koran aloud more than anything else.”
  • 2. Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Abu Hurairah who related that he heard the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, say this.

RECITATION |H 1019 “If only you could have seen me when I was listening to your recitation yesterday!” Muslim also narrated BEAUTY OF THE PROPHET'S RECITATION |H 1020 “I (Bra'a the son of 'Azib) heard the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, recite the chapter "At Teen" (Ch. 95) during the Isha (late evening) prayer. I have never heard anyone recite it with a more beautiful voice than his.” Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Bra'a son of 'Azib who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.

He said, ‘O Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, should I recite the Koran to you, when it is you to whom it has been revealed?’ He replied, ‘I like to hear it recited by another.’ So he recited to him the chapter An Nisa (Women) until he reached the verse: 'How then shall it be when We bring forward from every nation a witness, and bring you (Prophet Muhammad) to witness against those!' (Ch.4:41 Koran) when he said, ‘That is enough for now.’ Ibn Mas'ud looked at him and saw tears overflowing from his eyes.” Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to ibn Mas'ud who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.

As we were leaving the Mosque I said to him, ‘O Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, you said you would teach me which is the greatest chapter of the Koran.’ He replied, ‘Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds...” (Ch.1 Al Fatihah) it is the seven dual verses and the Great Koran which I was given.’" Bukhari with a chain up to Abu Sa'id Rafi' who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this. AL-'IKHLAS - CHAPTER 112 |H 1024 “The Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, said concerning the recitation of the chapter Al-'lkhlas (The Oneness Ch.112): ‘By Him in whose Hands is my life, it is equal to the recitation of one third of the Koran.’ We are also informed: The Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, inquired of his Companions, ‘Would any of you find it burdensome to recite one third of the Koran during the night?’ They considered it difficult and said, ‘Which of us is able to do that, O Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him?’ He said, ‘Chapter Al-lkhlas is equal to one third of the Koran.’" Bukhari with a chain up to Abu Sa'id Khudri who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this. CHAPTER EQUAL TO ONE THIRD OF THE KORAN |H 1025 “There was a man who heard another recite Chapter Al-lkhlas (The Oneness Ch.112) repeatedly. The next morning the listener went to the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, and mentioned it considering it to be of lesser value. The Messenger of Allah told him, ‘By Him in whose Hands is my life, it is equal to one third of the Koran.’" Bukhari with a chain up to Abu Sa'id Khudri who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.

THE IMPORTANCE OF RECITING CHAPTER AL IKHLAS AND THE NEXT TWO CHAPTERS |H 1488 “The Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said to me (Abdullah, the son of Khubaib), ‘Recite the chapter "Al-Ikhlas" (Ch.112 The Oneness) and the two following chapters three times in the morning and evening, and they will suffice you in all respects.’" Abu Daud and Tirmidhi with a chain up to Abdullah the son of Khubaib who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this. CHAPTERS 113 AND 114 H 1028 "Do you not you know, last night verses were sent down to me the like of which were not known before.

Muslim with a chain up to Ukbah the son of 'Amir who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this. BEFORE THE REVELATION OF CHAPTERS AL FALAQ AND AL-NAS H 1029 “The Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, would supplicate seeking refuge from the jinn and the eye of the human until the dual chapters of refuge (Al Falaq: Chapter 113, Daybreak and Al-Nas: Chapter 114: People) were revealed thereafter he discarded everything else and used them.” Tirmidhi with a chain up to Abu Sa'id Khudri who related this. CHAPTER THAT WILL INTERCEDE WITH ALLAH |H 1030 “There is a chapter in the Koran consisting of thirty verses which continue to intercede on behalf of a person till He (Allah) forgives him.

PROTECTION OF ONE'S HOME |H 1032 “The Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, warned, ‘Do not let your houses become graves. Indeed, satan runs away from a house in which Sura Al-Baqarah (Chapter 2: The Cow) is recited.’" Muslim with a chain up to Abu Hurairah who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this. GREATEST VERSE OF THE KORAN |H 1033 “The Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, asked me ‘Abu Mundhir, do you know which verse of the Book of Allah is the greater?’ I answered, ‘The Throne verse’ (Chapter 2:255). He patted me on the chest and said, ‘Congratulations on your knowledge Abu Mundhir!’” Muslim with a chain up to Ubayy the son of Ka'ab who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this. IMPORTANCE OF RECITING THE VERSE OF THE THRONE BEFORE SLEEPING |H 1034 “The Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, appointed me (Abu Hurairah) as the custodian of the ‘Sadqa Fitr’ (charity given at the end of Ramadan before the festival of Eid). During the night an intruder entered and tried to steal from the charity. I caught hold of him and said, ‘I will take you to the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him,‘ but he pleaded saying, ‘I am in need, I have a large family and we are in great need.’ So I let him go. The next morning the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, asked me, ‘Abu Hurairah, what did your captive do last night?’ I answered, ‘O Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, he pleaded telling me of the great need of himself and his family, so I took pity on him and let him go.’ The Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said, ‘He lied to you; he will return.’ Therefore I knew that he would return as the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, had said so I kept watch for him. The thief returned again and started to steal from the charity once more. I said to him, ‘I shall take you to the Messenger of Allah, 5
  • 6. praise and peace be upon him.’ But again he pleaded, ‘I am in need, I have a large family and we are in great need, let me go and I will not return.’ So again I took pity on him and let him go. The next morning the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said to me, ‘Abu Hurairah, what happened with your captive last night?’ I replied, ‘O Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, he pleaded with me and told me of the great need of himself and his family, so I took pity on him and let him go.’ The Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said, ‘He lied to you; he will return.’ So I watched for him a third time. Once again he returned and tried to steal from the charity. I caught him and said, ‘I shall take you to the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, this is the third and final time. You promised you would not return yet you came back!’ He pleaded once more saying, ‘Let me go, and I will tell you some words which will be beneficial for you before Allah.’ I asked him, ‘What are they?’ He answered, ‘When you go to bed recite the verse of the Throne (Chapter 2. 255) because it will be your guardian with Allah, and satan is unable to approach you until the morning.’ So I let him go. The next morning the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, asked me, ‘What did you do with your captive last night?’ I answered, ‘O Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, he said he would tell me some words which would be beneficial to me before Allah, so I let him go.’ He asked, ‘What are those words?’ I answered, ‘He told me that when I go to bed, to recite the verse of the Throne from beginning to the end. He told me that this would be my guardian with Allah, and that satan would be unable to approach me until the morning.’ The Messenger of Allah said, ‘This time he told you the truth, but he is a liar. Abu Hurairah, do you know with whom you spoke during these three nights?’ I answered, ‘No.’ The Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, answered, ‘It was satan.’” Bukhari with a chain up to Abu Hurairah who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.

The first is Sura Al Fatihah (The Opener, Chapter 1) and the other is the last verses of Sura Al-Baqarah (The Cow :Chapter 2).

Don't you know that which Allah has is better for the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him?’ She answered: ‘Indeed I know that which Allah has is better for the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, I cry because the Revelation has stopped coming down from the heaven.’ This moved the two and they began to cry with her.” Muslim with a chain up to Anas who related this hadith ABU BAKR IS INSTRUCTED TO LEAD THE PRAYER |H 454 “When the illness of the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, became severe he was asked about the prayer so he said: ‘Tell Abu 7

  • 9. 'When the victory of Allah and the opening comes.'" 110:1 Koran. Some of them said: ‘In this verse we have been commanded to praise Allah and supplicate for His forgiveness when He helps and gives us victory.’ Others remained quiet and said nothing. Then Omar asked me: ‘Do you say the same, ibn Abbas?’ I replied: ‘No.’ ‘Then what do you say?’ He asked. I replied: ‘When Allah said: When the victory of Allah and the opening comes and you see people embracing the Religion of Allah in throngs, exalt with the praise of your Lord and ask forgiveness from Him. For indeed, He is the Acceptor.' (110 Koran) It was an indication of the approach of death to the Prophet praise and peace be upon him‘.

For indeed, He is the Turner (for the penitent).' Ch.110" "The Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, often recited: ‘Exalted is Allah and His is all the praise. I seek the forgiveness of Allah and turn to Him.’ I said to him: ‘O Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, I have often heard you recite: ‘Exalted is Allah and His is all praise; I seek the forgiveness of Allah and turn to Him.’ He said: ‘My Lord told me that soon I would see a sign concerning my nation and that when I saw it I should exalt and praise Him, and ask His forgiveness and turn to Him. Now I have seen that sign.’ The victory and the opening of Allah was the opening of Mecca, and the sign was seeing people embrace the religion of Allah in large numbers." 9
