Imam Ja'fer al-Sadiq (as) has said, "One who recites it every night or every day will be among those who will visit the Prophet (pbuh)." al-Jathiya Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) has said the following about this Chapter: 'The faults of whoever reads it will be covered by Allah, who will remove from him his fear when he is brought for judgment."

Imam al-Sadiq (as) has also said that when this Chapter was revealed, it was escorted by seventy thousand angels, and its greatness filled the earth and the skies, and that whoever recites it on the eve of every Friday will die as a martyr and will be resurrected in the company of the martyrs and will stand with them.   al-lsra' The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) says that whoever recites this Chapter and is moved upon remembering his parents will be given the weight of two kantars of rewards.
