Is it true that there are specific surahs from the Qur’an that are recited for particular problems, such as Surat Al-Muzzammil for marital problems, Surat Al-Anbiya for progeny, Surat Al-’Adiyat for debts, Surat Al-Waqi’ah for sustenance, Surat Al-Hajj for seeking marriage, Surat Yusuf for prisoners and relief, Surat Maryam for preserving pregnancy, Surat Al-Inshiqaq for facilitating childbirth, Surat Al-Ghashiyah for a child's sleep, Surat Al-Falaq for the evil eye, and Surat Ad-Duha for forgetfulness?
"Designating specific surahs or verses for the treatment of particular diseases, problems, or crises is an innovation (bid'ah), such as dedicating Surat Al-Waqi'ah for bringing sustenance, or naming certain surahs as 'the saviors,' except for what has been supported by evidence, like Surahs Al-Falaq and An-Nas for seeking refuge from evils, whispers (waswas), and the evil eye. The best advice for someone who desires a good life is to read the entire Quran, ponder its meanings, and act upon its teachings."
