Surah Al Waqiah




Surah Waqiah, the 56th revelation from Allah in Makkah, is one of the 114 surahs in the Holy Quran. Comprising 96 verses, it resides within the 27th para.
The term "Waqiah" translates to "an event," with its core theme revolving around the afterlife. Preceding it, Surah Rahman focuses on Allah's blessings upon His followers.

In Surah Waqiah, believers' rewards in paradise and sinners' punishments in hellfire are elucidated. This chapter holds a profound significance as it prompts Muslims to reflect on mortality and the afterlife, motivating them to shun sins and perform virtuous acts, thus drawing them closer to Allah.
Benefits attributed to reciting Surah Waqiah include financial stability, blessings, and joy in life, along with enhanced success and prosperity. Hazrat Muhammad (SAW) emphasized its potency, proclaiming, "Whoever recites Surah al-Waqiah each night shall be spared from poverty." (Shu’ab al-Iman 4/120, number 2269
)





















Surah Waqiah is indeed recommended to be read before sleeping or between Maghrib and Isha prayers, as advised by Prophet Muhammad (SAW). It holds significance in the Quran as the 56th chapter in the 27th para.
