 *1/3 of the Rewards*

[[--- Episode Two ---]]
---------------------------------

بسم الله الرحمان الرحيم

It is evident from our previous episode of this article that one who recites Surah Ikhlas - ie - *“{قُلۡ هُوَ ٱللَّهُ أَحَدٌ}"* once shall be rewarded for reciting one-third of the Holy Quran. Subhananllah!

This means that - if we recite the surah 3X with the intention of gaining rewards,, we wil be given the rewards of one who recited the COMPLETE Quran. Allahu Akbar! No wonder the prophet (pbuh) told us that - "EVERYONE WILL ENTER JANNAH EXCEPT THOSE WHO REFUSE" - yes my brother my sister. This is evident in the hadith:

Narrated Abu Huraira where the Prophet (pbuh) said, "All my followers will enter Paradise except those who refuse." They said, "O Allah's Messenger! Who will refuse?" He said, "Whoever obeys me will enter Paradise, and whoever disobeys me is the one who refuses to enter it." 📚Reference  : Sahih al-Bukhari 7280

Now,

To continue with the virtues of reciting Surah Ikhlas - ie - *“{قُلۡ هُوَ ٱللَّهُ أَحَدٌ}"* - as promised, i will beg that you go through the hadith below:

"There was a man from the Ansar who led them (In Swalat) at Masjid Quba. Every time he was to recite a surah for them during swalat, he would begin by reciting Qul Huwa Allahu Ahad until he finished, then he would recite another Surah with it.. He did that in each Rak'ah. His companions talked to him and said: 'You recite this surah. You should either recite it alone Or leave it and recite another surah.'" He said: "I Shall not leave it, if you would like me to lead you with it then I shall do so, And if you do not like it, then I shall leave you." And they considered him the best among them, and they did not like the idea of someone else leading them. So when the Prophet (pbuh) came to them, they informed him about what had happened and he (pbuh) Said: "O so-and-so! What prevents you from doing what your companions told you to do? Why do recite this Surah In every Rak'ah?" He said: "O Messenger of Allah! Indeed I love It." So the Messenger of Allah Said: "Your Love For It Shall Have You Admitted Into Paradise." 📚 [At-Tirmidhi], Grade: Hasan Sahih (Al-Albani).

Slaves of Allah!

The constant recitation of surat al-ikhlas increases the presence of the angels at the time of death. Yes. But the detail of this will come to you 🔜 In shaa Allah if you read the next episode of this article.
