The reward of reciting Surahs Hadid, Waqi’ah and Rahman

Question:

What is the source of this Hadith and is it authentic?

Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “Whoever reads Surahs Hadid, Waqi’ah and Rahman, will be reckoned amongst the dwellers of Jannatul Firdaws (the highest level of Paradise).”

Answer:

Imam Bayhaqi (rahimahullah) has recorded this narration on the authority of Sayyidah Fatimah (radiyallahu ‘anha). However, he has declared the text of the Hadith unreliable (munkar).

(Shu’abul Iman, under Hadith: 2266. Also see: Faydul Qadir, Hadith: 6001)

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
