Salaams brothers.

My mom has always told me to recite manzil which, is a series of surahs and du'as. I wanted to confirm is this something the Prophet (SAW) used to do?

Title: I have seen a compilation of certain selected Ayats from the Qur'an, published in a book titled "Manzil". Please explain if it's proper to do so.


Question
If so, why these Ayats were the only one's selected, and when and by whom this was done. Some regard this as Bidah.


Answer
The Manzil is compiled by a renowned Muhaddith, Shaykhul Hadith Mawlana Muhammad Zakariyyah (RA). Such compilations of Du'aas, etc. have also been compiled by many Ulama in the past, for example, Hizbul A'zam by Mullah Ali Qari (RA)

The purpose of such compilations to make available to the general Muslims effective Du'aas and Dhikrs for their daily lives. The Qur'aan and Ahaadith are replete with orders and encouragements to make Du'aa and Dhikr. The compilation of the Manzil may be used to fulfil this injunction. It is not necessary to read the Manzil, therefore, it is incorrect to state that the reading or reciting of the Manzil is Bid'at.

We wish to advise that the Manzil has proven very effective in removing black magic and evils from one's home. We, therefore, strongly encourage reading the Manzil everyday.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

This post has been reported. It could be due to breaking rules or something as simple as bad use of bbcodes which breaks the page format. We will attend to this soon.
