A Short Background:
Surah Al-Mulk is the 67th chapter of The Holy Quran. It has
30 verses. It was revealed to Prophet Muhammad PBUH
in Mecca and it is a Meccan Surah.
Like any other Surah in the Quran, Surah Al-Mulk is very
important. There are many advantages of reciting this Surah.
Virtues of Recitation
of Surah Al Mulk:
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported
that:
I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saying, "There is a Surah in the
Qur'an which contains thirty Ayat which kept interceding for a man until his
sins are forgiven. This Surah is 'Blessed is He in Whose Hand is the dominion.
Hazrat yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that
Humayd ibn Abd ar-Rahman ibn Awf had told him that Surat al-Ikhlas (Surah 112)
was equal to a third of the Qur'an, and that Surah al-Mulk (Surah 67) pleaded
for its owner. Reference
Narrated Hazrat Ibn
Abbas:
"One of the Companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) put up a tent upon
a grave without knowing that it was a grave. When he realized that is was a
person's grave, he recited Surat Al-Mulk until its completion. Then he went to
the Prophet (ﷺ)
and said: 'O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
[Indeed] I erected my tent without realizing that it was upon a grave. So when
I realized there was a person in it I recited Surat Al-Mulk until its
completion.' So the Prophet (ﷺ)
said: "It (Surah Al-Mulk) is a prevention, it is a salvation delivering
from the punishment of the grave. Reference
From the above Hadith, Surah
Al-Mulk is also a preventive, and assists in delivering from the punishment of the
grave.
Point to ponder:
From the above Hadith ,
Surah Al-Mulk will negotiate for its reciters (those who recites this chapters
often) on the Day of Judgement until its reciter is forgiven by Allah (SWT)
therefore this is the time to revert to Quran.
As there are lots of
publication online and offline (in the forms of book) which you can access but
the actual things and rewards comes from doing somethings practice.
Closing Thoughts

enough to say that, Quran Recitation earns reward for you its understanding is

successful life and hereafter
