When utterance of 'Ameen' coincides with that of the Angels

Narrated Abu Huraira (RadhiAllahu 'anhu):

Prophet of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said:

"When the Imam says:

غَيۡرِ ٱلۡمَغۡضُوبِ عَلَيۡهِمۡ وَلَا ٱلضَّآلِّينَ

 'Ghair-il-Maghdubi 'Alaihim Walad-Dallin 

(i.e. not the path of those who earn Your Anger, nor the path of those who went astray (1.7)),

then you must say, 'Ameen', for if one's utterance of 'Ameen' coincides with that of the angels, then his past sins will be forgiven."

The greatest ayah (verse) in Quran

Ubayy bin Ka`b (RadhiAllahu 'anhu) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said: "Abu Mundhir! Do you know which Ayah in Allah's Book is the greatest?''

I replied: "It is `Allah la ilaha illa Huwal-Haiyul-Qayum (Allah! none has the right to be worshipped but He, the Ever Living...)'.'' (Al-Quran - 2 : 255).

Thereupon he (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) patted me in the chest and said, "Rejoice by this knowledge, O Abu Mundhir!''

[Muslim]


Commentary:
The words cited in the Hadith occur at the beginning of Ayat-ul-Kursi (No. 255 of Surat Al-Baqarah of the Qur'an). The merits mentioned in the Hadith are for the whole Ayah. Ayat-ul-Kursi mentions the Majestic Attributes and Mighty Powers of Allah and is, therefore, very meritorious.

"Rejoice by this knowledge'' means "May this knowledge be a source of respect, honour and benefit to you.'' And knowledge here stands for the knowledge of the Qur'an and Hadith which is certainly a means of success in this world and the Hereafter.

Prayer is light; charity is a proof; patience is illumination

An-Nawawi’s Hadith No.23

On the authority of Abu Malik Al-Harith ibn Asim Al-Ashari who said:

the Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said:

"Purity is half of faith.

Al-hamdulillah [all praise be to Allah] fills the scale.

And Subhanallah (Allah is free from imperfection)

and Al-hamdulillah [all praise be to Allah] fill that which is between heaven and earth.

Prayer is light;

charity is a proof;

patience is illumination;

and the Qur’an is an argument for or against you.

Everyone starts his day and is a vendor of his soul, either freeing it or bringing about its ruin."

Eminence of Surat Al-Ikhlas

Abu Hurairah (Radhiallaho anha) reported:
The Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said,
"Surat Ikhlas is equivalent to one-third of the Qur'an.''
[Muslim]


Anas (Radhiallaho anha) reported: A man said:
"O Messenger of Allah! I love Surat-Al-Ikhlas
[Say: He is Allah, (the) One].''
He (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said,
"Your love for it will admit you to Jannah.'' 
[At-Tirmidhi]

Commentary:
Some scholars have highlighted the eminence of Surat Al-Ikhlas by saying that it comprises the whole discipline of Tauhid. This Surat deals with Tauhid. Many other reasons have also been given for its great eminence by Muslim scholars.

Every Muslim Must Memorize Some Part From The Qur'an

Ibn `Abbas (RadhiAllahu 'anhu) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said,

"He who does not memorize any part from the Qur'an he is like the ruined house.''

[At-Tirmidhi]

Commentary:
This Hadith means that the heart of that Muslim is devoid of grace of spiritualism and Grace of Allah who does not remember by heart any portion of the Qur'an, in the same way as a deserted house is deprived of inhabitants and Blessings of Allah. What we learn from this is that every Muslim must remember some portion of the Qur'an so that he is safe from the admonition mentioned in this Hadith.

Surat Al-Ikhlas (Chapter 112)

Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri (Radhiallahu anhu) reported about Surat Al-Ikhlas (Chapter 112): The Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said, "By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, it is equivalent to one-third of the Qur'an.''

According to another version, he (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said to his Companions, "Is anyone of you incapable of reciting one-third of the Qur'an in one night?'' They considered it burdensome and said: "O Messenger of Allah, which of us can afford to do that?'' He (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said, "Surat Al-Ikhlas [Say: He is Allah (the) One] is equivalent to one-third of the Qur'an.''

[Al-Bukhari]

Commentary:
One reading of Surat Al-Ikhlas has return and reward equal to the recitation of one-third of the Qur'an. This Surah mentions the Oneness of Allah. This is enough to make one realize how much Allah (SWT) likes the recitation and remembrance of His Oneness. This is the reason, He has declared Shirk (polytheism) an absolutely unpardonable sin.

The Excellence of Reciting the Qur'an

I heard the Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) saying:

"The Qur'an and its people who applied it, will be brought on the Day of Resurrection preceded with Surat Al-Baqarah and Surat Al-`Imran arguing on behalf of those who applied them.''

[Muslim].

Commentary: This Hadith means that on the Day of Requital, the Qur'an, with Surat Al-Baqarah and Al-`Imran in the forefront, will intercede before Allah for those who used to recite and act upon them in the life of the world.

Qur'an will intercede for its reciters on the Day of Resurrection

Abu Umamah ( RadhiAllahu 'anhu ) reported:

I heard the Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wa sallam) saying:

"Read the Qur'an, for it will come as an intercessor for its reciters on the Day of Resurrection.''

[Muslim].

Commentary:
This Hadith tells the excellence of reciting the Qur'an and acting upon its injunctions. Intercession (in this Hadath) means that the Qur'an will be endowed with the power of speech by Allah and it will request Allah to forgive the sins of its reciters who acted upon its teachings. Allah will accept the request of the Qur'an, as signified in other Ahadith
