Is there a sound hadith stating that for whoever recites Ayat al-Kursi after ablution, forty degrees will be elevated for him, and for every letter an angel will be created for him to seek forgiveness for him until the Day of Judgment, and a thousand misfortunes in this world and a thousand in the Hereafter will be averted from him?
The wording of the Hadith: "Whoever recites Ayat al-Kursi after performing ablution (wudu'), Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, will grant him the reward of forty scholars, raise him forty degrees, and marry him to forty houris." This Hadith is not authentic, as its chain of narration includes Muqatil ibn Sulayman, who was a great liar.
