من سن في الإ سلام سنة حسنة فله أجرها و أجر من عمل بها بعده من غير ان ينقص من أجورهم شيء، ومن سن في الإسلام سنة سيئة كان عليه وزرها و وزر من عمل بها من بعده من غير أن ينقص من أو زار هم شيئا ـ رواه مسلم

Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.) said:“He who inaugurates a good sunna (custom or ways, examplar) in Islam earns the reward of it and (the rewards) of all who perform it after him without diminishing their own rewards in the slightest; and he who introduces a bad sunna (custom or ways, examplar) is guilty of the sin of it and (the sins) of all who perform it after him without diminishing their own sins in the slightest.”

QUR'AN SURAH AL-KAHFI (The Cave) : Sheikh Mahmud Khalil Husary

Assalamu alaikum waraHmatullaahi wa barakaa-tuh,

The recommendation of reciting both the beginning and ending ten verses of Surat al-Kahf (the 18th sura of the Quran) has been transmitted from the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace).

It is also recommended to recite the entire sura on Fridays. Imam Mundhiri (Allah have mercy on him) devoted a chapter of his al-Targhib wal Tarhib (Encouragement and Warning) to this.

Encouraging reciting Surat Kahf, or Ten Verses from its Beginning or Ten from its End

Abu al-Darda (Allah be pleased with him) related that the Prophet of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) said:

"Whoever commits ten verses from the beginning Surat al-Kahf will be protected from the Dajjal."

[Muslim, Abu Dawud, Nasai, and others; the wording is Muslims]

In a narration in Muslim and Abu Dawud it states, "From the end of Surat al-Kahf". Tirmidhi related is with the words:

"Whoever recites three verses from the beginning of al-Kahf will be protected from the tribulations of the Dajjal".

[Mundhiri, al-Targhib wal Tarhib, #2172-2173]

Imam Shafi`i (Allah have mercy on him) said in his "Kitab al-Umm",

"It has reached us that whoever recites Surat al-Kahf on Fridays will be protected from the Dajjal."

[Shafi`i, al-Umm, 1.239]
