The Virtues of Surat Az-Zalzalah
Imam Ahmad recorded from `Abdullah bin `Amr that he said, "A man came to the Messenger of Allah and said, `Teach me what to recite, O Messenger of Allah!' The Prophet said,
«اقْرَأْ ثَلَاثًا مِنْ ذَوَاتِ الر»
(Recite three from those [which begin] with the letters Alif, Lam, Ra') The man then said to him, `I have become old in age, my heart has hardened and my tongue has become harsh.' The Prophet said,
«فَاقْرَأْ مِنْ ذَوَاتِ حم»
(Then recite from those [which begin] with the letters Ha-Mim.) The man said the same thing as he had said before, so the Prophet said,
«اقْرَأْ ثَلَاثًا مِنَ الْمُسَبِّحَات»
(Recite three from the Musabbihat.) The man again said the same thing as he had said before. Then the man said, `Rather give me something to recite that is comprehensive (of all of these), O Messenger of Allah.' So the Prophet told him to recite
[إِذَا زُلْزِلَتِ الاٌّرْضُ زِلْزَالَهَا ]
(When the earth quakes with its Zilzal.) Then when he (the Prophet ) finished reciting the Surah to him the man said, `By He Who has sent you you with the truth as a Prophet, I will never add anything else to it.' Then the man turned away and left, and the Prophet said,
«أَفْلَحَ الرُّوَيْجِلُ، أَفْلَحَ الرُّوَيْجِل»
(The little man has been successful, the little man has been successful.)
