On the authority of Khalid bin Madan, he said: (The Messenger of God, صلى الله عليه وسلم) did not sleep until he recited the Al Musabbihaat. And he says: “In it there is a verse like a thousand verses.”
Ibn Kathir cites a story on the authority of Ibn ` Asakir from Abu Zabyah that when Sayyidna ` Abdullah Ibn Masud (رض) was lying on his deathbed, Sayyidna ` Uthman (رض) paid him a visit and the following conversation ensued.
` Uthman: (رض) : مَا تَشتَکِي؟ “What are you suffering from?”
Ibn Masud (رض) ! ذُنُوبِي ” from my sins.”
` Uthman (رض) : مَا تشتهي؟ “Do you desire anything?”
Ibn Masud (رضرحمة ربي :”Yes, Allah’s mercy.”
` Uthman : (رض) : اَلَاَ آمُرُلَکَ بِطَيبِ؟ “Shall I call a doctor for you?”
Ibn Masud (رض) ! اَطَّبِيبُ اَمرَضَنِی “It is the doctor who has given me the ailment.”
` Uthman: (رض) اَلاَ آمُرُ لَکَ بِعَطَاءِ ؟ “May I send you an allowance from the public treasury?”
Ibn Masud (رض) ” ! لا حَاجةَ لِي فيه “I have no need for it.”
` Uthman (رض) يَکُونُ لِبَنَاتِکَ مِن بَعدِک “Accept it, [ please ]. You are leaving daughters behind you. It will help them.”
Ibn Masudقَالَ: أَتَخْشَى عَلَى بَنَاتِي الْفَقْرَ؟ إِنِّي أَمَرْتُ بَنَاتِي يَقْرَأْنَ كُلَّ لَيْلَةٍ سُورَةَ الْوَاقِعَةِ، إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وسلم يَقُولُ: “مَنْ قَرَأَ سُورَةَ الْوَاقِعَةِ كُلَّ لَيْلَةٍ، لَمْ تُصِبْهُ فَاقَةٌ أَبَدًا (تفسير ابن كثير ت سلامة (7/ 512)”.”You are worried about my daughters that they must not suffer from poverty. I have no such worry, because I have instructed them to recite Surah Al-Waqi` ah every night. I have heard the Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) say, مَنْ قَرَأَ سُورَةَ الْوَاقِعَةِ كُلَّ لَيْلَةٍ، لَمْ تُصِبْهُ فَاقَةٌ أَبَدًا ‘Whoever recites Surah Al-Waqi` ah every night will never suffer from poverty’.”
Ibn Kathir, after citing this story from Ibn ` Asakir, has supported it with other chains of transmitters and other sources.
