Question

Is there any virtue in reciting Surah Dukhan every night?

Answer

1) ‘Allamah Suyuti (rahimahullah) has mentioned Surah Dukhan to be from those Surahs that do have authentic virtues.

(Tadribur Rawi, vol. 1, pg. 490)

2) Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (radiyallahu ‘anhu) reports that Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:

“Whomsoever recites Surah Dukhan at night, seventy thousand angels will seek forgiveness on his behalf.”

(Sunan Tirmidhi, Hadith: 2888)

The above narration has quite a weak chain. Despite this, reciting Surah Dukhan does hold extra merit in general as quoted at the outset.

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best

التخريج من المصادر العربية

تدريب الراوي: (٣/ ٤٩٢)
واعلم أن السور التي صحتِ الأحاديث في فضلها: الفاتحة، والزهراوان، والأنعام، والسبع الطول (۲) مجملاً، والكهف، ويس، والدخان، والملك، والزلزلة والنصر والكافرون والإخلاص والمعوذتان، وما عداها لم يصح فيه شيء.

سنن الترمذي:
(٢٨٨٨)  حدثنا سفيان بن وكيع قال: حدثنا زيد بن حباب، عن عمر بن أبي خثعم، عن يحيى بن أبي كثير، عن أبي سلمة، عن أبي هريرة، قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: «من قرأ حم الدخان في ليلة أصبح يستغفر له سبعون ألف ملك».
«هذا حديث غريب لا نعرفه إلا من هذا الوجه. وعمر بن أبي خثعم يضعف قال محمد: «وهو منكر الحديث».
