Is it established that reciting the last four verses of Surat Al-Mu'minun brings healing, and is the Hadith reported concerning its virtue authentic or weak?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The entire Holy Quran is a healing for hearts and bodies, as Allah Almighty says: "And We send down of the Quran that which is a healing and a mercy to those who believe," and "Say, 'It is for those who believe, a guidance and a healing.'" Some surahs and verses have been singled out for a special virtue in healing, such as Al-Fatiha and the Mu'awwidhat (Surahs Al-Falaq and An-Nas). As for the virtue of the last four verses of Surat Al-Mu'minun in healing, there is a weak hadith concerning them that Adh-Dhahabi judged to be baseless (batil). Ibn Hajar and Al-Albani also deemed it weak. There is no harm in reciting them with the intention of healing because they are from the Quran.
