Excellence of Surah Yasin

Imam Nasiruddin Basti رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه once became very ill and fell into a coma. Presuming him to be dead, his dear ones and relatives put on his shroud and buried him. Upon regaining consciousness in his grave at night, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه was greatly shocked and surprised to find himself buried in a grave. In the state of anxiety, he recollected the narration ‘whoever recites Surah Yasin 40 times in the time of distress, Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ would remove his troubles and trouble will turn into relief.’ Therefore, Imam Nasiruddin Basti رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه started reciting Surah Yasin; he had reached the 39^th time when a shroud thief began to dig open his grave, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه, by his Divinely bestowed insight, became aware of the shroud thief and the moment he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه completed his 40^th recitation, the shroud thief had completely dug open his grave; he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه exited the grave; upon seeing this startling scene, the shroud thief died out of fear. Imam Nasiruddin رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه thought that if he returns to the city, people may become terrified, so he went in the night and stated before each door of the street that I am Nasiruddin Basti; I fell into a coma, you had thought I was dead and buried me, but I am alive. After that incident, Imam Nasiruddin رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه wrote a commentary of the Glorious Quran. (Fawaid-ul-Fawad, pp: 139)

فلموں سے ڈراموں سے دے نفرت تُو اِلٰہی

بس شوق مجھے نعت و تلاوت کا خُدا دے

Dear Islamic brothers! Have you seen how great & tremendous blessings and virtues there are for reciting the Glorious Quran are! When Iman Nasiruddin رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه regained consciousness, he began reciting Surah Yasin in the state of worry which resulted in this virtue that Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ created a means from the hidden for his salvation; thus, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه came out of his grave.
