To what extent are the Hadith narratives valid that pertain to the virtues of specific surahs and verses of the Noble Quran, such as: the virtue of reciting Surah Yasin, and Al-Waqi'ah, and Surah Al-Ikhlas, and Ayatul Kursi, and Surah At-Takathur, and Fatihatul Kitab, and the last five verses of Surah Al-Kahf, and the concluding verses of Surah Al-Baqarah?
The first, second, fifth, seventh, and eighth hadith are weak. The first and fifth hadith are fabricated (mawdu’). The third hadith is attributed to Ali ibn Umar al-Harbi, Abu al-Hasan al-Qazwini, and he likely mentioned it based on experience, without a chain of transmission (sanad). The fourth hadith: its chain of transmission includes Marwan ibn Salim al-Ghifari, who is abandoned (matruk). The sixth hadith is weak. It should be noted that all the mentioned hadith are weak, with the understanding that acting upon a weak hadith in matters of virtuous deeds (fada’il al-a'mal) is permissible under certain conditions and controls.
