Surah Jathiyah

Surah Jathiyah is hoofdstuk 45 van de Heilige Koran.

There are 37 verses in this Surah and it was revealed in Makkah. This Surah is also called Surah ash-Shari’ah. It is narrated that whoever recites this Surah will not be frightened on the Day of Judgement and his private parts will remain covered (whereas all people will be raised naked on this day).

Imam Ja’far as-Sadiq (a.s.) has said that whoever recites this Surah will not see Jahannam and neither will he hear the voice of its flames. Keeping this Surah in one’s possession makes him a beloved of the people and protects him from tyrant rulers. It also keeps one safe from those who love to slander and backbite. If it is placed on the neck of a newborn child, it ensures safety and protection from all calamities.
