Could you verify the following Hadith?
من قرأ يس والصافات ليلة الجمعة ثم سأل الله أعطاه سؤله
Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “Whoever recites Surah Yasin and Saffat on the night of Jumu’ah, and then asks Allah, Allah will grant him his request”
Answer:
Imam Daylami (rahimahullah) has recorded this Hadith on the authority of Sayyiduna ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Abbas (radiyallahu ‘anhuma). However, the chain consists of a fabricator. The Hadith should not be quoted.
(Refer: Dhaylul La-Alil Masnu’ah, vol. 1 pg. 118, Hadith: 126 and Tanzihush Shari’ah, vol. 1 pg. 298)
See here for another virtue of reciting Surah Yasin on Friday eve.
And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
