This is a ‘meccan’ surah. The Holy Prophet (saw) has said that the reward for reciting this surah is equivalent to ten times the number of heavenly bodies in space. Imam Ja’far as-Sadiq (as) has narrated that if surah at-Taariq is recited in compulsory prayers, then the reciter is honoured by ALLAH (swt) and will get the opportunity of being with the Prophets (as). Reciting this surah over anything keeps it safe. If recited before taking medicine, then the medicine will be a sure cure. The water in which this surah has been dissolved should be poured gently on a wound and it will heal with the Grace of ALLAH (swt). Show Less >>
