Q: What to read when pregnant:
1-3 month (Surah Luqman)
As the brains are formed – for a wise and clever child
3-6 month (Surah Yusuf)
As the face is formed – for a beautiful child
6-9 months (Surah Muhammad)
As the body is formed – Good manners and qualities of Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wasallam)
Surah Maryam throughout the pregnancy for easy pregnancy and easy labour
Surah Al-Haaqqah – no defects and healthy child and baby will be saved from all calamities.
A: This is not something proven from the hadeeth, but it is permissible as a treatment.
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
