Ayatul Kursi

Ayatul Kursi, recited by Abdullah Al-Mattrod, is a powerful and revered verse from the Quran, specifically from Surah Al-Baqarah (2:255). This verse is often referred to as the Throne Verse and is considered one of the most significant and protective verses in Islamic tradition. The lyrics emphasize the absolute sovereignty, omnipotence, and omniscience of Allah, portraying Him as the eternal and self-sustaining force behind all existence.

The verse begins by declaring that there is no deity but Allah, who is ever-living and self-subsisting. This establishes the foundational belief in the oneness of God, a central tenet in Islam. The lyrics further describe that neither slumber nor sleep overtakes Him, highlighting His perpetual vigilance and control over the universe. This imagery serves to reassure believers of Allah's constant presence and protection.

The verse continues to assert that everything in the heavens and the earth belongs to Allah, and no one can intercede with Him except by His permission. This underscores the concept of divine authority and the futility of seeking intermediaries without Allah's consent. The lyrics also mention that Allah's knowledge encompasses all that is before and behind His creation, signifying His complete awareness and understanding of all things. The verse concludes by stating that His Throne extends over the heavens and the earth, and preserving them does not burden Him, affirming His supreme power and greatness.

Ayatul Kursi is often recited for protection, seeking blessings, and as a reminder of Allah's omnipotence and mercy. Its profound message and spiritual significance make it a cornerstone of faith for many Muslims around the world.
