Surah Hijr

There are 99 verses in this ‘makki’ Surah. It is narrated from the Holy Prophet (Sal Allaho Alehi Wasallam) that whoever recites Surah Hijr will get the reward equal to the number of Muhajireen and Ansaar (companions of the Holy Prophet [Sal Allaho Alehi Wasallam]) and this Surah should be written with saffron and then worn as a talisman by a new mother who cannot produce enough milk for her child. If written and tied on one’s arm, it makes any business conducted by the wearer to be profitable and makes people like doing business with him. His sustenance thus increases. In a narration by Imam Ja’far as-Sadiq (a.s.) one can also put this Surah (written) inside the pocket or safe (for storing valuables).
