Suratul Mulk (Surah 67)

Suratul Mulk


I was listening to a lecture recently and the speaker mentioned the merits of reciting Suratul Mulk. I was hoping to make it a practice to recite this surah at night so I wanted to gather resources to help me understand what I was reading as well as audio to listen to.


Some merits of reciting this surah every night:
Narrated from Abdullaah Ibn Mas’ood (radiyallaahu-anhu) who said: ”Whoever recites [تَبَارَكَ الَّذِي بِيَدِهِ الْمُلْكُ ] [i.e. Soorah al-Mulk] every night, Allaah will protect him from the punishment of the grave. And at the time of the Messenger of Allaah (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) we used to call it [ٱلْمَانِعَةُ – i.e. something that protects]. And indeed it is a Soorah in the Book of Allaah that whoever recites it every night has done very well” (Source)
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: I heard the Messenger of Allah (sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) saying, “There is a Surah in the Qur’an which contains thirty Ayat which kept interceding for a man until his sins are forgiven. This Surah is `Blessed is He in Whose Hand is the dominion.’ (Surat Al-Mulk 67).”[At-Tirmidhi and Abu Dawud].
