Virtues of the Quran's Chapters and Verses
Special Virtues of the Qur'an's Chapters and Verses 69
عَنْ فَرْوَةَ بْنِ نَوْفَلٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ لِنَوْفَلٍ " اقْرَأْ ( قُلْ يَا أَيُّهَا الْكَافِرُونَ ) ثُمَّ نَمْ عَلَى خَاتِمَتِهَا فَإِنَّهَا بَرَاءَةٌ مِنَ الشِّرْكِ ".
Farwah ibn Nawfal reported from his father that the Prophet ﷺ said to Nawfal: ‘Recite “Say: O disbelievers” (Sūrat al-Kāfirūn), then sleep after completing it, for it is a disavowal of shirk.’
Translation notes
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ لِنَوْفَلٍ
The Arabic gives the Prophet’s instruction to Nawfal directly; the English witness adds a request for bedtime advice and another report with an attribution and reference that are not part of this Arabic text.
Should these additional witness narratives remain excluded from the translation of this source text?
