Ayat al-Kursi is regarded as one of the most powerful ayahs in the Quran because when it is recited,
the greatness of God is believed to be confirmed.
The person who recites this ayah morning and evening will be under protection of God
from the evil of the jinn and the shayatin (demons)
this is also known as the daily adkhar. It is used in exorcism, to cure and protect from jinn and shayatin.
Because the Throne Verse is believed to grant spiritual or physical protection,
it is often recited by Muslims before setting out on a journey and before going to sleep
