Reciting Surah Ikhlaas two hundred times

Submitted by admin on Sun, 2015-08-23 08:03

Q: I read somewhere that if we pray Surah ikhlass one hundred times, 25 years of sins will be forgiven and if we pray two hundred times then 50 years of sins are forgiven, inshaAllah. Does that mean we have to pray the set amount every day or after every salaah or just once in our lifetime? And if we pray that amount for our deceased family, will their 25 or 50 years of sins be forgiven? And if so, do we have to pray for each member of our family separately or can we include all of them together?

A: We have not come across this.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
