THE POWER OF QURAN | RECITATION OF SURAH AL-MULK | سورة الملك | MA'NA DLOMIR SANI

Surah Al-Mulk, which is one of the surahs in the Quran, is believed to have its own special qualities in guarding and protecting a person from the torment of the grave. By reading Surah Al-Mulk regularly, Muslims believe that they can obtain protection from the punishment that may await in the barzakh realm. Consider the following explanation by Sayyid Muhammad Alawi Al-Maliki; قراءة سورة تبارك للنجاة من عذاب القبر : وروي عن ابن عباس رضي الله عنهما قال: ضرب بعض أصحاب النبي ﷺ خباءه على قبر وهو لا يحسب أنه قبر، فإذا قبر إنسان يقرأ سورة الملك حتى ختمها، فأتى النبي ﷺ فقال : يا رسول الله ، ضربت خبائي على قبر وأنا لا أحسب أنه قبر، فإذا قبر إنسان يقرأ سورة الملك حتى ختمها، فقال النبي : هي المانعة هي المنجية تنجيه من عذاب القبر. رواه الترمذي . Meaning: "Reciting Surah Al-Mulk to be saved from the torment of the grave: It was narrated on the authority of Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) who said: One of the companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) pitched his tent over a grave, not realizing that it was a grave. Suddenly, there appeared a grave of a man reciting Surah Al-Mulk until he completed it. He came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah, I pitched my tent over a grave, not realizing that it was a grave, and suddenly, there appeared a grave of a man reciting Surah Al-Mulk until he completed it. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: It is the protector, it is the savior, it saves him from the torment of the grave. Narrated by Al-Tirmidhi. After reading Surah Al-Mulk, a person is encouraged to pray to perfect his reward and obtain his fadilah or virtue. So how does the prayer sound after reading the letter Al-Mulk? Here is the prayer after reading the letter Al-Mulk complete with Arabic and translation. اَلَّلهُمَّ اعْصِمْنَا بِا لْإِسْلاَمِ قَاعِدًًَا وَرَاقِدًا وَلاَتُشْمِتْ فِيْنَا عَدُوًّا وَّلاَحَاسِدًا، اَلّٰلهُمَّ إِنَّا نَعُوْذُبِكَ مِنْ شَرِّگُلِّ دَآبَّةٍ أَنْتَ اٰخِذٌ بِنَا صِيَتِهـَا، وَنَسْئَلُكَ الْخَيْرَ الَّذِيْ بِيَدِكَ Meaning: “O Allah, keep me faithful to the teachings of Islam, both when sitting and lying down. Do not cheer up the hearts of our enemies and those who are evil towards us. O Allah, I truly ask You for protection from the evil of every creature. You are the One who controls them. I ask You for goodness within Your grasp.” This prayer can be referenced in the book "al-Minabus Saniyyah 'alâ al-Washiyyah al-Matbuliyah" by Sheikh Abdul Wahab Sya'rani. It is reported that one of the benefits of this prayer is that it protects a person from things that cause him trouble, whether from jinn, humans or animals.
