Is reading Surat Al-Mulk in supererogatory prayers, such as Qiyam al-Layl (night vigil prayer), sufficient for its recommended recitation every night?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Surat Al-Mulk intercedes for its reciter until he is forgiven. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, would not sleep until he recited Surat As-Sajdah and Surat Al-Mulk. It is recommended to recite them before sleep, following the practice of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and it is permissible to recite them during the night prayer before sleeping.
