Abu Hurayrah
said that the Prophet said, “Do not turn your houses into graves. Verily,
Shaytan does not enter the house where Surah Al-Baqarah is recited.”
Also,
Abdullah bin Mas`ud said, “Shaytan flees from the house where Surah Al-Baqarah
is heard.”
Ibn Mas`ud
said, “Shaytan departs the house where Surah Al-Baqarah is being recited, and
as he leaves, he passes gas.”
Abdullah bin
Mas`ud said, “Whoever recites ten Ayat from Surah Al-Baqarah in a night, then
Shaytan will not enter his house that night. These ten Ayat are;
1) four from
the beginning,
2) Ayat
Al-Kursi (255),
3) the
following two Ayat (256-257) and
4) the last
three Ayat.''
In another
narration, Ibn Mas`ud said, “Then Shaytan will not come near him or his family,
nor will he be touched by anything that he dislikes. Also, if these Ayat were
to be recited over a senile person, they would wake him up.”
More Hadith About The Blessing Of Al-Baqara
Messenger of
Allah said, “Everything has a hump (or, high peek), and Al-Baqarah is the high
peek of the Qur'an. Whoever recites Al- Baqarah at night in his house, then
Shaytan will not enter that house for three nights. Whoever recites it during a
day in his house, then Shaytan will not enter that house for three days.”
Abu Hurayrah
said, “The Messenger of Allah sent an expedition force comprising of many men
and asked each about what they memorized of the Qur'an. The Prophet came to one
of the youngest men among them and asked him, `What have you memorized (of the
Qur'an) young man?”
He said, “I
memorized such and such Surahs and also Al-Baqarah.”
The Prophet
said, “You memorized Surah Al-Baqarah.”
He said, “Yes.”
The Prophet
said, “Then you are their commander.”
One of the
noted men (or chiefs) commented, By Allah! I did not learn Surah Al-Baqarah,
for fear that I would not be able to implement it.
The
Messenger of Allah said, “Learn Al-Qur'an and recite it, for the example of
whoever learns the Qur'an, recites it and adheres to it, is the example of a
bag that is full of musk whose scent fills the air. The example of whoever
learns the Qur'an and then sleeps (i.e. lazy) while the Qur'an is in his
memory, is the example of a bag that has musk, but is closed tight.”
Usayd bin
Hudayr said that he was once reciting Surah Al-Baqarah while his horse was tied
next to him. The horse started to make some noise. When Usayd stopped reciting,
the horse stopped moving about. When he resumed reading, the horse started
moving about again. When he stopped reciting, the horse stopped moving, and
when he resumed reading, the horse started to move again. Meanwhile, his son
Yahya was close to the horse, and he feared that the horse might step on him. When
he moved his son back, he looked up to the sky and saw a cloud radiating with
light that looked like lamps.
In the
morning, he went to the Prophet and told him what had happened and then said, “O
Messenger of Allah! My son Yahya was close to the horse and I feared that she
might step on him. When I attended to him and raised my head to the sky, I saw
a cloud with lights like lamps. So, I went, but I couldn't see it.”
The Prophet
said, “Do you know what that was?”
He said, “No.”
The Prophet
said, “They were the angels, they came close hearing your voice (reciting Surah
Al-Baqarah), and if you had kept reading, the people would have been able to
see the angels when the morning came, and the angels would not be hidden from
their eyes.”
