Benefits of Surah as Sajdah (32)

The Prophet would not sleep until he recited
Surah as Sajdah.
[at-Tirmidhi 5/165; Hakim 2/412 & Dhahabi in
Sahih al Jamiea (22/789)]
Khalid ibn Ma’dan (radiAllahu anhu) said, “Recite
the Deliverer, which is Alif Laam Tanzeel, for I
have heard that a man who had committed many
sins used to recite it and nothing else. It spread
its wing over him and said, ‘O’ My Lord, forgive
him, for he often used to recite me.’ So the Lord
Most High made it an intercessor for him and
said, ‘Record for him a good deed and raise him a
degree in place of every sin.”
Khalid (radiAllahu anhu) also said, “It will dispute
on behalf of the one who recites it when he is in
his grave saying, ‘O’ Allah, if I am part of Thy
Book, make me an intercessor for him. But if I am
not a part of Thy Book, blot me out of it.’ It will
be like a bird putting its wing on him, it will
intercede for him and will protect him from the
punishment in the grave.” He said the same about
Tabaarakalladhi (Surah Mulk).
Khalid (radiAllahu anhu) did not go to sleep at
night till he had recited them. Taus said that they
were given sixty virtues more than any other
Surah in the Holy Qur’an.
