Ayat al-Kursi After Every Obligatory Prayer

A narration from Abu Umamah رضي الله عنه encourages reciting Ayat al-Kursi after every prescribed prayer.

Evidence and guidance

A narration from Abu Umamah رضي الله عنه encourages reciting Ayat al-Kursi after every prescribed prayer. It is reported by al-Nasa'i in *al-Sunan al-Kubra* and other early sources. Ibn Hibban authenticated it, while hadith scholars have discussed aspects of its chain.

How to apply it

Because it is not in Bukhari or Muslim, state its source and grading transparently. Those who accept the report may act upon it. Do not explain its wording as a guarantee of Paradise independent of tawhid, faith, obligations, repentance and Allah's judgment.
