The "Whoever recites Ya-Sin and As-Saffat on Friday, then asks Allah, He will grant him his request" is weak (da'if), and its chain of narration contains a narrator who was abandoned (matruk). Similarly, what was mentioned about Surat Nuh, the hadith "Whoever recites Surat Nuh will be among the believers whom the supplication of Nuh (peace be upon him) reaches," is fabricated (mawdu'). As for the hadith "Whoever recites Surat An-Najm will be given ten good deeds as a reward, corresponding to the number of those who believed in Muhammad and those who disbelieved in him," it is also fabricated (mawdu').
