SURAH AL-MUTAFFIN (THE DEFRAUDERS)
This surah was revealed in Mecca and it has 36 verses. Imam Ja’far as-Sadiq (a.s.) has said that if a person recites this surah in his obligayory prayers, he will be safe from Jahannam. He will not even see it, hear it or even come close to it. His accounts for deeds will not be taken.
It is narrated from the Holy Prophet (S) that if this surah is recited on a treasure, it will remain safe. In fact, reciting it on anything keeps it safe, even from the vermin of the Earth.
