Sunan Abu Dawud — Hadith 1400

حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مَرْزُوقٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، أَخْبَرَنَا قَتَادَةُ ، عَنْ عَبَّاسٍ الْجُشَمِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " سُورَةٌ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ ثَلَاثُونَ آيَةً تَشْفَعُ لِصَاحِبِهَا حَتَّى يُغْفَرَ لَهُ : تَبَارَكَ الَّذِي بِيَدِهِ الْمُلْكُ " .
Narrated Abu Hurairah: The Prophet ﷺ said: A surah of the Quran containing thirty verses will intercede its reader till he will be forgiven. That is: "Blessed is He in Whose Hand is the sovereignty" (Surah 67).

➋
On the Day of Resurrection, deeds will appear in tangible form.

➌
On the Day of Resurrection, righteous deeds will also intercede.

Recitation of the Noble Qur’an, if done with faith and sincerity of intention, becomes a means of forgiveness.
