Ayat al Kursi

Text and Translation

It is mentioned in Misbah of Kafami from the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a.) that one who recites Ayatul Kursi regularly is given by Allah wisdom to his heart, faith, sincerity, reliance and honour. One who writes it with Zamzam water or rain water is cured of every ailment of his body. He would also be safe from instigations of Satan and forgetfulness. One who wears it as an amulet, is protected from wild animals, reptiles, magic and every disease. One who recites it repeatedly would remain safe from divine chastisement.

اَللهُ لَآ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا ھُوَ۝۰ۚ اَلْحَيُّ الْقَيُّوْمُ۝۰ۥۚ لَا تَاْخُذُهٗ سِنَۃٌ وَّلَا نَوْمٌ۝۰ۭ لَهٗ مَا فِي السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَا فِي الْاَرْضِ۝۰ۭ مَنْ ذَا الَّذِيْ يَشْفَعُ عِنْدَهٗٓ اِلَّا بِاِذْنِهٖ۝۰ۭ يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ اَيْدِيْهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَھُمْ۝۰ۚ وَلَا يُحِيْطُوْنَ بِشَيْءٍ مِّنْ عِلْمِهٖٓ اِلَّا بِمَا شَاۗءَ۝۰ۚ وَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ۝۰ۚ وَلَا ئَُوْدُهٗ حِفْظُهُمَا۝۰ۚ وَھُوَالْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيْمُ۝۲۵۵

Allah is He besides Whom there is no god, the Everliving, the Self-subsisting by Whom all subsist; slumber does not overtake Him nor sleep; whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth is His; who is he that can intercede with Him but by His permission? He knows what is before them and what is behind them, and they cannot comprehend anything out of His knowledge except what He pleases, His knowledge extends over the heavens and the earth, and the preservation of them both tires Him not, and He is the Most High, the Great.

There is no compulsion in religion; truly the right way has become clearly distinct from error; therefore, whoever disbelieves in the Shaitan and believes in Allah he indeed has laid hold on the firmest handle, which shall not break off, and Allah is Hearing, Knowing.

اَللهُ وَلِيُّ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا۝۰ۙ يُخْرِجُهُمْ مِّنَ الظُّلُمٰتِ اِلَى النُّوْرِ۝۰ۥۭ وَالَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْٓا اَوْلِيُٰۗٔھُمُ الطَّاغُوْتُ۝۰ۙ يُخْرِجُوْنَھُمْ مِّنَ النُّوْرِ اِلَى الظُّلُمٰتِ۝۰ۭ اُولٰۗىِٕكَ اَصْحٰبُ النَّارِ۝۰ۚ ھُمْ فِيْهَا خٰلِدُوْنَ۝۲۵۷ۧ

Allah is the guardian of those who believe. He brings them out of the darkness into the light; and (as to) those who disbelieve, their guardians are Shaitans who take them out of the light into the darkness; they are the inmates of the fire, in it they shall abide.
