Introduction

This is a collection of Verses from the Qurn. In my family

this was known as Manzil. The elders of my family used to
be very particular in using these verses in dus and
treatments. The children of our family were made to
memorise the Manzil at a young age.

In place of amulets (that are permissible according to

shariah), the veres of Qurn and those dus that are in the
adth are much more effective and beneficial. When treating
people one should be mindful of this.

Rasulullah did not leave out any need of this world or

the hereafter except that he taught a du by means of which
to resolve that difficulty. Experience has shown that there are
certain verses when read while in a specific need or
difficulty, Allh will alleviate that difficulty.

Manzil is a tried and tested practice for protection and cure

from mischief, Sihr and other harmful things. These verses
are compiled in Al-Qawlul Jameel and Beheshti Zewar. In
Al-Qawlul Jameel Shah Wali-Ullah Muhadith Dehlawi has
stated that there are thirty three verses that remove the
effects of black magic and protect from shaytaans, thieves
and wild animals. In Beheshti Zewar, Maulna Ashraf
Thanwi
has said written that that whoever is fearful
that that someone is afflicted they should have these verses
written and hung on the persons neck or that these verses
can be recited and then the reader blow on some water and
 3

that water is sprinkled on the patient or that the water is

sprinkled in the four corners of the house.

In our family, it was quite difficult for the ladies to read these
verses for anybody that was sick or afflicted as they had to
go through the Qurn and find the verses which were usually
book marked. So to make things easy, a separate compilation
was prepared.

Treatments and dus are effective according to the manner

the person is reading it. The more concentration, focus and
love that dus are read with, the more effective they become.
There are great blessings in the name and kalaam of Allh.

Important Note

1. Within the footnotes there are virtues and blessings (from

adth) of the verses of the Manzil. By reading these
enthusiasm will be created. Therefore, every now and then
these should also be read. However, they are not part of the
actual Manzil.
2. The Manzil can be held without wudhu but the reader should
be mindful not to touch the verses when handling the book
while not in a state of wudhu. This ruling does not apply to
handling a Qurn i.e. you can not handle a Qurn without
wudu.

In a adth it is narrated from Rasulullah SAW that Surah Faatiha is cure
for all ailments (Daarimi and Baihaqi). In it is also encouraged in another
adth to read it and blow on the patient.

It is narrated in a adth by Hadhrat Abdullah ibn Mas'ood that
there are ten verses in Surah Baqarah that have such an efficacy that if
one recites them at night, neither Shaytn nor the jinn would enter
one's house, nor would one and one's family be afficted with illness or
calamity or sorrow that night, and that if they are recited over a man
suffering from a fit of madness, his condition will improve. The ten
verses are these: the first four verses of the Surah, three verses in the
middle (that is, the Ayat al-Kursi, and the two following verses), and the
last three verses of the Surah. (Maaariful Qurn)

This verse encapsulates the meaning of Tawheed (Oneness of Allh).
The foundation of the whole of deen is based on Tawheed.

Hadhrat Muammad Bin Ibraheem Taimi narrated from his father that
he was sent by Rasulullah in one expedition. At the time of
departure Rasulullah advised him that they should read these
verses morning and evening. We used to read these by means of which
we obtained much wealth (spoils of war) and our lives were also
protected. (Ibnus Sunni)

dua of mercy for him till the evening and if he dies that day, he will die
as a martyr and if he recites these in the evening then Allh gives him
the same reward. (Tafseer Mazhari quoting from Tirmizi)

Hadhrat Jubair Bin Mutim narrates from the holy Prophet says
that he asked him whether he wished to have the best companions and
the most amount of provisions with him when he was on a journey, and
he said he definetly wanted that, then, the Prophet said: "Recite
these five Suras: Surah Kafirun, Surah Nasr, Surah Ikhlas, Surah Falaq
and Surah Nas, and begin your recitation (of each surah) with Bismillah
and end (the surah Naas) with Bismillah. (Tafseer Mazhari) It is narrated
that Sura Kafirun is equal to one fourth of the Quran. (Tiimizi)

In a length hadeeth it is narrated that Raasulullah SAW said that that
whoever reads and the Muawaizatayn (Surah Falaq and
Surah Naas) that it will suffice him. In another narration it will suffice
him in protecting him from all calamaties. Imam Ahmad has narrated
from Hadhrat Uqbah ibn Aamir that Rasulullah said that I shall
tell you of 3 surahs that were revealed in the Torah, Psalms, Bible and
the Qurn. Dont sleep at night until you have recited these three (i.e.
and the Muawaizatayn). Hadhrat Uqbah said since that
time I never missed reading these surahs.
