Reciting Surah al-Ikhlas is equal to 1/3 of the Qur’an

Narrated by Abu Sa’id Al-Khudri R.A

The Prophet (ﷺ) said to his companions, "Is it difficult for any of you to recite one third of the Qur'an in one night?" This suggestion was difficult for them so they said, "Who among us has the power to do so, O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)?" Allah Apostle replied: "Allah (the) One, the Self-Sufficient Master Whom all creatures need.' (Surah Al-Ikhlas 112.1--to the End) is equal to one third of the Qur'an."

Allahu la ilaha illa Huwa, Al-Haiyul-Qayyum. La ta'khudhuhu sinatun wa la nawm, lahu ma fis-samawati wa ma fil-'ard. Man dhalladhi yashfa'u 'indahu illa bi-idhnihi. Ya'lamu ma baina aidihim wa ma khalfahum, wa la yuhituna bishai'im-min 'ilmihi illa bima sha'a. Wasi'a kursiyyuhus-samawati wal ard, wa la ya'uduhu hifdhuhuma, wa Huwal-Aliyyul-Adheem ۝

Allah - there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of existence. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills. His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not. And He is the Most High, the Most Great.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Whoever recites the verse of the Throne (Ayatul Kursi) after every prescribed prayer, there will be nothing standing between him and his entering Paradise except death.”

This phrase is recited while in the position of Ruku (bowing position) during the Solat.

During I'tidal, from rising from bowing position to standing straight, before Sujood

At-tahiyyatu al-mubarakatu as-salawatu at-tayyibatu lillah
as-salamu ‘alayka ayyuha’n-Nabiyyu wa rahmat-Allahi wa barakatuhu.
As-salamu ‘alayna wa ‘alaa ‘ibad-Illah is-saliheen.
Asyahadu alla illaha illallah.
Wa asyhadu anna Muhammadar Rasulullah

All the best compliments and the prayers and the good things are for Allah.
Peace and Allah’s Mercy and Blessings be on you, O Prophet!
Peace be on us and on the pious slaves of Allah, I testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah, and I also testify that Muhammad is Allah’s slave and His Apostle.

O Allah, let Your mercy come upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad as You let it come upon Ibrahim and the family of Ibrahim O Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad as You blessed Ibrahim and the family of Ibrahim. Truly You are Praiseworthy and Glorious.

Attahiyat, also referred to as Tashahhud, is recited while seated during solat in the iftirash position. If the solat consists of more than two raka’ahs (units of prayer), the first part of Attahiyat is recited in the sitting position during the second raka’ah.

In the final raka’ah (in the tawarruk seating position), the full version of Attahiyat (combining both the first and second parts, the Salawat/Ibrahimiyya) is recited.

For solat that comprise only two raka’ahs, the full version of Attahiyat is recited in the sitting position of the second raka’ah (in the tawarruk seating position, before offering salam)

Upon concluding the solat in the Tawarruk position, after the full recitation of Attahiyat.
