The Excellence of the Holy Quran

11ـ وَبِهَذَا الإسْنَادِ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ سَيْفِ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ مَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِالله وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ فَلا يَدَعْ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ فِي دُبُرِ الْفَرِيضَةِ بِقُلْ هُوَ الله أَحَدٌ فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ قَرَأَهَا جَمَعَ الله لَهُ خَيْرَ الدُّنْيَا وَالآخِرَةِ وَغَفَرَ لَهُ وَلِوَالِدَيْهِ وَمَا وَلَدَا.
11. Through the same chain of narrators it is narrated from al-Hassan ibn Sayf ibn ‘Umayrah from abu Bakr al-Hadrmi from Abu ‘Abdillah عليه السلام who has said the following: “Whoever believes in Allah and in the life to come should not ignore reading Chapter 112 ( al-’Ikhlas ) of the Holy Quran after an obligatory prayer. Whoever does so (reads it), Allah will collect for him the good of this and the next life, forgive him, his parents and their children.”
